Speak Softly and Carry a Big Lipstick


A long time ago Linda had a dog named Matty. It was a good dog, but it loved to chew stuff. It wasn't picky either: tissues from the trash, shoes, underwear, purses. Basically, anything on or near the floor was fair game. One day, Linda came home and found Matty covered in red lipstick. She had gotten into her makeup and destroyed it. Linda was mad but could not stop laughing because Matty looked hysterical with lipstick all over her face. It was probably yummy because most lipstick contains fish scales. It's what gives the gloss that "pearly" look. If that's not gross enough, a lot of face make up contains cattle, oxen or swine brain cells or other nervous-system tissue. Ewwww. I think when Linda reads this she will probably start buying vegan makeup.
