Can I mix hair dye together to get a brighter or different color? I want to use L'Oreal Hicolor and I went into Sally's and I didn't think the red I wanted was bright enough irl compared to the sample online. So I was wondering if I can mix a highlighting color from the same brand to get a better color?
Thanks!

A week's worth of sucks from your friendly neighbourhood corner shop. Most of our customers are great, but the area in which the shop is located is home to a multitude of 'stellar' individuals as well.

Saturday


Yesterday
Having failed to wear her wedding ring on both Saturday and Sunday night's X Factor shows, Cheryl Cole's rock has reappeared and was back on her finger last night.
The Girls Aloud singer was snapped wearing the £160,000 sparkler as she left rehearsals for the BBC's Children In Need concert in Maida Vale.
Rumour has it that the X Factor judge couldn't wear her ring during the live shows because it clashed with her outfits on both occasions.
So we were relieved to see that her lumberjack outfit was perfectly complimented by the pricey diamond.
On Saturday night's X Factor Cheryl wore a black dress, while on Sunday she was dressed in a slinky red number, but clearly what is needed with a rock of this magnitude is the casual look.
Her faded blue jeans, blue, red and white checked shirt, blue and faux fur gillet and baseball cap are obviously much better suited to bling.
50 Cent will soon film the video for his next single, "Do You Think About Me?" and he recently revealed who will be playing his leading lady...

Dear Various FF.Net Star Trek Authors,
No love,
Me.
Edit: I mentioned specific authors by name so I could give concrete examples of what I was talking about. Earlier writers from the 'zine era, whose works are unfortunately mostly lost, were tremendous as well, so I've heard, but they do not affect my point because they are not likely to directly influence fans new to TOS because their work isn't readily available. In addition, there are other authors from the same era as the ones I named who are equally as good but whom I have not read because their particular genre is not one I care for. I did not name specific authors for the AOS fandom on LJ because I didn't want to accidentally forget anyone, and if I were to list them all, we'd be here for the next decade. Throw a metaphorical dart in those comms, and 99 times out of a hundred, you'll hit exceptional fic - end of story.
Edited for clarity.

Specific Count Cain/Godchild author,
You got Riff's eye color wrong. That's sort of bothersome, but forgivable. It's not mentioned in the manga, and there are aren't many color pictures where it's clear. I only know that they're blue because I zoomed in on a cover scan. (I really wanted to know.) So, it's not really a big deal that you called them violet.
However. You described Cain's eyes as "bluish-gray."
No. Cain's eyes are not bluish-gray. They are gold-green. That's important. It's a plot point. I can understand why you might forget though. I mean, it's only mentioned several times each volume! And in pretty much every color picture of him. And in dozens of fanfic.
But that's not the worst part. That I might have been able to deal with. However, you have this author's note at the end:
before you start I'm well aware that their eye color is wrong. But at the moment when I was writing it, I didn't have a ref. picture and none of my friends could rember. I asked my friend who I wrote this for and she gave me the eye colors that I used.
Seriously? You knew that the colors were wrong... and you posted the story without correcting this? Why? And you don't need a reference pic to know the color of Cain's eyes. Just read the manga! Any volume will do. Or do a google search for Cain Hargreaves. You will find accurate pictures*. Trust me, I just checked. And why did you absolutely need to mention eye color in the first place? These details are rarely necessary unless they're a plot point. (Like Cain's eyes--Oh wait.)
I'm not sure which leaves me more baffled: that you got such a basic fact wrong, or that you knew you were wrong and left the mistake in.
*Admittedly, there is some variation. Some pictures have his eyes more green, while others are more gold. But never anything resembling bluish-gray.

A couple sucks I have been saving up:
1. DO NOT PLAY WITH YOUR LIGHTER INSIDE MY STORE! (He kept trying to catch his coffee cup on fire D: )
2. Dear lady:
You bought coffee. What did you think it would taste like? Sunshine and clouds? Oh- it's just that it tastes Too Much Like Coffee. I suggest cream and sugar, which would help mightily, but you'd rather return your coffee-like coffee. Sure, whatever.
3. Dear people that keep coming 30 minutes before we close:
No, we do not have a great selection right now. We close in half an hour, though, so this is not shocking to me, nor should it be to you, though it is. Sorry. No, I don't know of any other donut places around here that are open, as I don't keep a list of competetor's places to give business to. Sorry again. Don't let the door hit you on the way out.
4. People, stop paying with 348957485 dollars in dimes, nickels and pennies! If you are 6 and have saved up a shit ton of change, I understand. If you have your own bank account and are within your majority, please hit the bank first.
and, on the flip side,
5. STOP PAYING FOR 1.59 COFFEES WITH 100 OR 50 DOLLAR BILLS! We are a small independent store, not a bank.
6. Whether you are buying books or coffee, please do not cut. There is one line, for both. IT IS FROM THE SAME STORE! Don't come up to the side and try to pay on the DL for your books, there is tax as well, which you know, dumb-asses.
(I'm sure there's more, but I am to tired to ponder my stressful job.)

Psycho lady: Hello?

PL: *click*
Me: (Accidentally disconnected? Just in case...)
*Ring, ring*
PL: STOP CALLING ME!! *click*
Me: o.O -sigh-
And a funny one:
Later I went into the office to dial a long-distance number, for the same reason. ( You'll like this! )

Donnie McClurkin ramps up the ridiculous to speak in tongues and call gays "vampires". The infamously "ex-gay"—or should we say merely "re-closeted"—Grammy Award winning gospel singer and evangelist rants against gays, gay youth and recently out gospel singer Tonex at the Church of God in Christ's Holy Convocation Youth Service. This happened last Saturday at the COGIC convention in Memphis.
In the first of three disgusting YouTube videos, McClurkin begins his rant against Tonex, the gospel star who recently confirmed his long-rumored sexuality. McClurkin says Tonex is a "perversion" and must pray away the gay: "God did not call young people to such peversion. Society has failed him, his church has failed him ... I would be homosexual to this day if Jesus hadn't delivered."
McClurkin also rails against openly gay youth as "broken and feminine": "I see feminine men, feminine boys, everywhere I go ... No, don't applaud 'cuz it ain't funny. It's because we failed. I see them everywhere."
Quite rich coming from McClurkin. If anyone has seen him or the young men in his inner circle, well, let's say the observation about "feminine men everywhere" is spot-on.
