    If they say it about your apartment then you'd better clean it.

    It's just a bacterial infection that develops by your eyelash. It usually looks like a small pimple. I used to get them when I wore contacts.

    They can hurt. :(

    Oil and dirt build up. Just like when you get a pimple.

    Gross I work with a girl who has one and she is a semi bitch, I have to tell her what caused it because she thinks it is because she ran into something.
