I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Carded for cigarettes at the age of 32. It's the babyfat.

information libertarian

mr. flea bought old spice deodorant kind of as a joke after the Old Spice Man broke big. But he likes it. He uses ivory soap and whatever shampoo I buy (non-smelly).

My male family members, guy friends, and various boyfriends are all musky or sporty or neutral. Little bro dabbles in the cucumber (um). Any bf's using old spice have had to change that shit because that's my dad's smell.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

My father uses Old Spice. I don't care if guys I'm with use it or not.

That's like, childhood, sitting on daddy's lap. Also, Tom's of Maine is right out for kissing.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Poll: What kind of shampoo and soap do you menfolk use?

Tim will only use bar soap like Safeguard, and ignores my grapefruit-scented body wash. Whenever he runs out of shampoo and we're standing in the shampoo aisle, he stares at all the options and then asks me, "What do you want my hair to smell like?" (I think green apple wins, although, really, his hair doesn't smell like anything to me. Which is fine.)

It's suddenly occurring to me that I've never asked him that. OTOH, I wouldn't change hair products for him unless they were making him physically ill, so, no point.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I like sandalwood in my shaving soap. The shower soap is just Ivory. Shampoo is...something cheap.

Here's your disturbing imagery sentence of the day:

"Using a computer-controlled cadaver to simulate a pitcher on the mound, Boston researchers are gaining insights into the causes of baseball shoulder problems — which derail more major leaguers than just about any other injury."

It's never occurred to me that fatherlike things or familylike looks are out of the runnings. As long as you actually aren't my father, you're good.

It's not that (the family-like), but I knew of no one else who used Old Spice or Tom's for nearly two decades. It's firmly DAD for me.

I don't know of anyone else that uses Old Spice other than my father. I just don't care.
