    Victoria's Secret Bra Story

    http://www.abcnews.go.com/GMA/story?id=6225503&page=1

    I had this exact same thing happen to me about a year and a half ago. Contact dermatitis from my VS bras. I had to a doctor because it was THAT uncomfortable, to the point of having trouble sleeping and not being able to wear a bra or anything form fitting. I had to go through weeks of creams and such and I pretty much ceased wearing a bra when I wasn't outside my house thinking I was having a simple allergic reaction to something which belonged in the three $42 secret embrace bras I bought to replace my old ones after a fitting. Has this happened to anyone else? I sent a message to ABC news asking for more information on the lawsuit. I'd love to get my $126 back so I can buy bras I can wear without having a miserable and unbearable rash again.

    Nabbed from BardBoy;

    You are in a mall when the zombies attack. You have:
    1. one weapon.
    2. one song blasting on the speakers.
    3. one famous person to fight alongside you.

    Weapon can be real or fictional, you may assume endless ammo if applicable. Person can be real or fictional.

    1. I'll take a repeating crossbow with endless ammo. Since poking them in the brain in how you get rid of them, this would let me do it from a distance so I don't need to get any zombie goo on me.

    2. The Themesong from Friends. If I'm going to have to stay angry and adrenalized to survive, then that song on repeat will give me a true and desperate will to GET OUT of the mall so I never have to hear it again.

    3. Dean Winchester from Supernatural. The boy knows how to deal with all things undead and unnatural, and he's smoking hot to boot. Granted, Sam Winchester would be a bigger target to keep the zombies off me, but he's also a lot harder to hide because he's a ginormatron.
