    E) a person who starts their own successful business melting down empty lipstick tubes to make items to be thrown at people who honestly use the term lipstick entrepreneur. #lipstickentrepreneur

    I envision "Lipstick Entrepreneur" as another line on Orly Taitz's business card. You know, along with Dentist, Lawyer, and Real Estate Agent. #lipstickentrepreneur

    I went to one of those cheesy Pure Romance sex toy parties awhile back, and the saleswoman told me that she was about to quit her "real" job and do Pure Romance full time. I'm guessing that qualifies as Lipstick Entrepreneurship, too—although Lubricant Entrepreneurship would be a more appropriate moniker…

    @Kivrin: Honestly, it's a market that isn't experiencing the kind of crunch some others are, or at least that seems to be the case. The sex shop I work in is pretty consistently making significantly more money than in previous years, and many people say that in lieu of spending money on vacations or whatnot, they send the kids to their grandparents'/friends'/etc house for the weekend. That said, I would so never buy anything from one of those parties. Marked up like woah, and the people selling it (by and large) don't know fuck all about what they're doing. #lipstickentrepreneur

    @femmina: Yeah, I bought some lube and a cute little hummingbird-shaped vibe (my first). Now that I'm no longer a sex toy virgin, I'll go to a shop (and support local businesses!) for future purchases. ;) #lipstickentrepreneur

    I'm trying to imagine what complexion would look good with that orange lipstick in the middle of the photo. It would look ghastly on my pale self, but I can't imagine it looking good on my darker skinned friends, either. #lipstickentrepreneur

    @Kivrin: I have chocolate brown skin and I have a bright tangerine lipstick that looks fantastic on me. It's a little bit sheer.

    I saw Rose McGowan once with bright vermilion lipstick and it was stunning. It was actually what spurred me to check out some orange/corals, even though I thought it might be just for pale people like her. #lipstickentrepreneur

    Oh, Posh. Did you wear no one else's clothes before starting to design your own.

    And oh, Fergie. Did you mean to imply that every other modern scent is stinky? Yours is the only fresh one?

    Venerated old houses like Givenchy shouldn't do diffusion lines. Leave that to the young designers that need the money.

    Also, I posed this in groupthink, but it disappeared: a facebook friend (high school classmate I haven't seen in years) posted that she's hosting a "Knock-Off Party with fake Prada, Louis Vuitton, Coach, and more" at her house. Is that legal? Should I be a debbie downer and tell her about child labor and such? #victoriabeckham

    "Dear Ellen von Umwerth,

    Ghosty girl here. Thank you for remembering me so fondly, if not my nationality.. Alas, after our photo shoot I had an epiphany: modeling bores me. To tears. I'm currently pursuing a Ph.D in comparative religion at Oxford, and generally being one happy ghost.

    Happy Halloween!" #victoriabeckham

    I adore Eric Ripert. I have never read anything about him that didn't indicate that he was an all around class act. There are times when I truly can't wrap my head around how he and Bourdain are such close friends. #victoriabeckham

    Am I the only one who is bothered by people who try to describe scents with adjectives that relate to sight?
