TRENTON, N.J. — New Jersey is smoothing out differences over a plan to ban bare-it-all bikini waxing.

Since we’re dealing with nanny state politicians, they’ll probably just tax “genital waxing” instead.

It’s really time they banned sweat marks on armpits. While they’re at it, they should ban skid marks too.

It’s really time they banned sweat marks on armpits. While they’re at it, they should ban skid marks, bad breath, and pubic hairs on public toilets as well.

They could form a skid mark task force and do focus groups.

It’s just waxing after all. Not that big a thing. Glad I don’t have to go underground for this too. ;)

Some people like the Drapes and the Carpets to match while others prefer a smooth floor covering.

It's nice to know that in the middle of “THE WORST ECONOMIC CRISIS SINCE THE GREAT DEPRESSION”, there are elected Representatives wasting time on something as stupid as this.

Those are nicotine stains; not skid marks.
