Proof once again that school bus drivers whose passengers include middle school students deserve hazard pay.

Is there such a thing as just enough Axe?

My friends and I once took my 14-year-old nephew on a trip, and when we walked into the room one morning, the Axe stench was so intense my eyes were watering and we all started coughing. He explained that the best way to apply Axe was to spray it in the air to create a heavy cloud and then walk through it. His Axe applications were relegated to the balcony for the rest of the trip.

looks like someone found a way to postpone taking that math test.

Is this actually on the bottle? If so it is the most ingenious instruction for selling more product since someone added “repeat” to the shampoo instructions.

No fatalities? Good, but how close were they to catching an Axe murderer?

Oh hey now…don’t be dissing on the Drakkar. I probably still have a bottle tucked away in my parent’s storage room somewhere.

That stuff has pheromones!

Dammit, you beat me to it.

Fuckin’ Drakkar; In 7th grade it seemed like every male within 50 miles of me was wearing that scent, and it did NOT work well for everyone…

reminds me of this onion headline (I incorrectly thought it was about Axe) https://local.theonion.com/massive-tag-body-spray-slick-spreading-from-jersey-shor-1819568700

I take issue with calling this product a deodorant. Isn’t it more accurately described as an oderant?

A 30C dilution, applied with soap, has been shown to be effectual with the target demographic that the full-strength spray repels. This is apparently the only known case of homeopathy actually working.

I seriously am concerned about anyone who buys that stuff and is not turned off by their advertising campaign (which is sadly a lot of people). Instead of a so called “pink tax” on products for women I think the PnG and J&J are missing out on a real cash cow “masculine insecurity” those products should have their prices jacked up it’s those dudes who have the money anyhow.
