    Default My lips are chapped.

    But unseasonably so. Chapped lips are a symptom of the viles of winter, and we're in full spring in these parts!

    Do you ever go through icky bad things during the wrong time of year. Like chapped lips in springtime or summer flus?

    Signature by rubah. I think.

    my lips never get chapped and i refuse to ever use any lip products on them. I attribute this to daily practice of a brass instrument.

    so if you have problems with chapped lips, don't bust out the carmex, but out a trombone!

    My lips are always chapped. It doesnt bother me too much, its an excuse to pile on the Strawberry LipSmackers.

    I have a tendency to have allergy troubles at random times. Sneezing, runny nose, watery eyes at random points in the year... though then again, I live in California and the weather never changes enough to effect the plant life, so maybe that's it.

    My lips get chapped out of nowhere, reguardless of the weather...it's strange.

    Ditto. To both parts.

    I don't really get summer flus, but my allergies come and go whenever they please.

    My lips are chapped when I wake in the morning. I don't wear lip stuff because it doesn't do anything, my chapped lips prevail over any synthetic product. I bet if I were making out with girls, my lips wouldn't be chapped.
    Jack: How do you know?

    Will: It's more of a feeling really.

    Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?

    Will: No.

    Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
    Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
    Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
    Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
    Huxley: NO!
    Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
    Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
    Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
    Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
    Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
    Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
    Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
    Huxley: You need to leave, John.
    Spartan: But Huxley.
    Huxley: Get out!
    Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.

    By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.

    I suffer from Hayfever in the spring/summer months, which makes me feel like I have the flu constantly. I only suffer from chapped lips in the winter, though (if at all).

    Hmmm, not really.

    I'm much more irritable in the summer than I am any other part of the year though.

    I used to get chapped lips every year. But now I don't. Because I am superior!

    I usually get chapped lips either if I'm run down or if it's winter. I usually get a chest infection once a year, usually around the middle of winter too. It's almost become routine

    I'm a firm believer of chapstick falling into the "the more you use it, the more you need it" category. I don't put stuff on my lips and I don't play the trombone either, I also live in Scotland and it gets pretty damned cold over here (and used to live in NZ and it gets pretty warm there) and I've never had any massive troubles. Maybe a day or so on some rare occasion, but I won't use it then either. I train my lips to take care of themselves.

    I've never had chapped lips and never sucked anything.
