Here’s the takeaway: Life is too short to stress about a little wax. You’re going to make silly choices—we all do. Maybe you’ll eat a chapstick, maybe you’ll wear mismatched socks, maybe you’ll accidentally put hand sanitizer on a bagel. That’s okay. The world keeps spinning, your lips get moisturized, and you get a funny memory. So go ahead, nibble that chapstick if you must. Just remember to smile, because you’re doing life your own deliciously weird way. And hey—your lips? They’re really, really soft now. Win-win.
Now go snack on something that doesn’t have a twist-lock mechanism. You glorious, slightly greasy miracle, you.
