I agree. I mean, give me a chain-smoking, alcoholic with yellow teeth and a beer gut any day. Yummy!

But seriously, I never use ChapStick ... it actually dries out my lips. But everyone's chemistry is different. For some people (*cough*driverdave*cough) using ChapStick every other minute produces soft, dry lips. So ... who knows?

Switching to lipstick would certainly cure your boot camp problem lickety-split...
