    Legit have had paranoid patients making shivs or trying to start floods or fires and barricading their doors soap or lotion themselves up. The barricading isn’t usually an issue because most places I’ve worked have had swingstop doors but extracting them without getting them or us hurt always fucking sucks. Usually someone who’s spent time in the correctional system doing stuff like that with the soap or lotion but one dude was a combat veteran. That suuucked.

    I don’t have enough skin.

    The cops beat down the door . . .

    I really thought it was going another direction, where they’d just, you know, get more skin.

      Hand lotion is a mixture of water, oil and an emulsifier! I don’t think an apolar diluent can have any place in it?

      But I am sure its flavored very pleasantly regardless

        I’ve been wondering why so much sunscreen has alcohol, exactly because of what you explained. Do you happen to know?

          Not OP but just to hazard a guess:

          Alcohol evaporates quickly. It’s probably there for the same reason it’s used in dry shampoos and antiperspirants; to make something that sprays but drys into a powder or thickens to a gel in a very short period of time.

          I don’t understand the connection? I don’t think sunscreen contains oil?

          UV protection is based on a mineral or chemical filtration aaaaaaaand I looked it up oil does not provide UV prot

            Huh I thought since most are moisturizing that they were basically lotion with extra sun protecting ingredients!
