This last New Year's Eve I was wearing this silly hat that had glitter all over it. Since then I've had a hard time getting rid of all of the glitter that spread to the rest of my body. There was glitter on my face, my pillow, and I'm still finding glitter in my bed. I didn't realize that glitter is this hard to get rid of, there is probably glitter on my butt.

For those of you that haven't met me, I'm a pretty big deal. I'm extremely good looking, better looking than all of you probably, and suffice to say, lots of people want to have sex with me. Therefore, I was concerned about being out in public with glitter on me constantly because it's not nice to be constantly stimulating people around you. I think I have gotten rid of most of the glitter now, but there is still some lingering around.

Do you guys have any tips for getting rid of glitter for next time? Peanut butter? Vat of oil? Chewing gum? I tried a hair dryer and working up a sweat, it didn't work.

Keep the glitter. The kids will think you're a vampire. One of those cool new emo vampires.

Duct tape.... everywhere.

Now the questions is:
1) remove it very slowly
2) remove it quickly
3) just leave it on

Hey, maybe we should have a poll?

Somebody could make millions inventing glitter with a slight magnetic charge so that you could de-glitter yourself with a magnet.

Think of all the rock stars like Doofy that will go for that, I bet Doofy is covered in glitter more often than he isn't.

Yes, but that's because I actually sweat glitter rather than attract it. But it's a rare occurrence, since I keep my cool all the time except for the one day in August known as "summer".
Been inclined to wander... off the beaten track.
That's where there's thunder... and the wind shouts back.

Just tell everyone you were at the strip club "Glittery Factory."

(It's a real club here, and yes, there's glitter everywhere.)

My girlfriend is working in a craft store, according to her glitter is known as the herpes of arts and crafts

You can't get rid of it. You will spread it to friends, family and strangers. Long after you think it's gone it will turn up in awkward places at awkward times.

Maybe you can find a support group
You can take the dude out of So Cal, but you can't take the dude outta the dude, dude!

Besson, sometimes I doubt your commitment to Sparkle Motion.
