    Feel free to bitch about any damn sticky stuff you want to.

    I am going to start by bitching about the damn sticky stuff on the back of these velcro strips that I'm sewing on the dog sweaters.

    It's awful to have to push a needle and pull a thread through this crap. I'm barley started and already the needle and the thread are so sticky!

    I'll clarify. These are press-on velcro strips that the directions suggest you sew on when placing on fabric. The adhesive is griping my ass.

    And no; I did not say gripping my ass. I said griping my ass.

    The sticky stuff they put over the price ticket, you have to scratch it off only to find its not worth it!

    Yes! Even Goo Gone will tear up cardboard if that's what the price tag in on.

    Construction adhesive...


    Of course if it wasn't sticky it wouldn't work.

    I agree. I hate the velcro on Barbie clothes.

    There was velcro on the pugs' harnasses once, and after awile, the velcro lost its power and did not work anymore, too.

    Velcro was invented from the inspiration of burrs. Those annoying plant seeds that cling to your clothing and are a huge pain in the ass to pick each burr out one by one. I never liked the ripping sound of heavy duty Velcro coming undone.... slowly....
