Retail Therapy

1. An idiot's way of dealing with an idiotic problem.

2, One of the most moronic notions bestowed upon humankind that simply buying some frivolous mass-produced good can alleviate one's mood or take away a bad feeling caused by a REAL problem, when in fact buying some random product will do nothing about the actual problem but MAY induce an hour's worth of distraction which is enough for people who have the attention span and memory of a chipmunk.

1. Omg, like my friend totally didn't text me back and I've been waiting for 2 minutes!! I'm totally gunna go to the mall and blow up my credit card now to ease this PAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIN. FML!!!

2. Omg!! I just found out I have a Sexually Transmitted Disease and it's like sooooOOoo gross. I need some retail therapy!!! *30 min. later* This dress is so cute... why was I upset again??

bee sting therapy

a method of therapy in which bee venom is used to treat a variety of diseases such as arthritis and rheumatism. Live bees are placed on the body of a patient and made to sting the specific parts, called trigger or acupuncture points, of their body. This method of treatment is said to be hard-hitting against bone and joint diseases. However, it could be fatal.

Bee sting therapy is not a scientifically proven method of treatment.

People who perpetually write Facebook status updates about how depressed they are or how bad their life is so they can get sympathetic comments from their friends.
