I'm told I smell.

It's true. It happened again yesterday at Brooks Brothers. It happened earlier this Summer at my hair stylist and also at Panera bread. It's always a Frau behind the register with a goofy expression like she's in love with me. And it's never a short conversation. They want to know what cologne I wear. When I say "none", it comes down to shampoo (Panteen) and soap (dial mountain fresh). It's either the Dial soap, with an outside chance that it's Lubiderm that I put on my legs when I wear shorts, as I screwed-up and didn't get the unscented by mistake. It used to bug me, but now I handle it with aplomb. I still don't know which one it is, though.

Gad. And here I thought MY life was beyond pathetic.

Telling you believe in going au natural.

Thank you, R1, but to trump OP, you must use a word with more scrabble points than "aplomb". You may use French, if you are at a complete loss and have to rush off to bed. R2 knows what he's doing, but he's probably in bed by now.

Thank YOU, R3.

Sorry it took me 10 minutes to get back to you. I was busy practicing on my xylophone.

Ouch, R4!

You too, Cheryl, but only because I don't want to hear back from you, regardless. I would normally write "irregardless", but like I wrote, once is enough, so we're good.

R1 smells a little musty.

I don't like most colognes, or scented soaps, including laundry detergents (chemical sensitivity), but occasionally have worn a combination of patchouli and orange oil extracts. I get a lot of positive comments on how good I smell, and no, they aren't being sarcastic. Patchouli and weed is another smell I haven't tried.

by Anonymousreply 8October 12, 2015 4:17 AM

It distresses me that R1 can't be troubled to credit the piano player on his YouTube clip. What's the back story there, R1? Is that your X? You got famous and dumped him, you cad?

by Anonymousreply 9October 12, 2015 4:18 AM

Patchouli is also an insecticide, so that if there are any insects that have evolved to live without water out there in California, you're protected, too. And with the orange oil, you can double as a furnature polish. Excellent choice, R9.

R10 - like my eye roll for your use of 'Dial Mountain Fresh'?

Touché, mon petit monstre.

by Anonymousreply 13October 12, 2015 5:57 AM

Actually, if you'd like to know, I use the soap because it's blue marbling matches the marble in my bathroom, after a fashion. Plus, I smell great, apparently.

Oh, R12. It's like life, it's entirely what you make of it.

"And it's never a short conversation."

The short version: "Smell her!"

Piano players are so many, they are like interchangeable parts.

by Anonymousreply 17October 12, 2015 7:24 PM

OP, I think... no, I am positive... that you are the most unattractive man I have ever met in my entire life. You know, in the short time we've been together, you have demonstrated EVERY loathsome characteristic of the male personality and even discovered a few new ones. You are physically repulsive, intellectually retarded, you're morally reprehensible, vulgar, insensitive, selfish, stupid, you have no taste, a lousy sense of humor and you smell. You're not even interesting enough to make me sick.

You smell with your nose. Otherwise, you stink.

I like R24's wise comment. Well done, young fella. "A+"

R23, I'm afraid you get a gentleman's "C".

R22 would get an "A+"; however, he writes that OP "sounds" sensational. Doesn't OP "read" sensational? I would also have accepted "smells" sensational. R22, from those who much is given, much is expected. "B+" for you.

by Anonymousreply 25October 16, 2015 3:22 AM

R21, yes, you may do all those things, but not tonight, I just washed my hair.

I get you're glad you use Dial, OP, but do you wish EVERYBODY did?

Or just the 99 & 44/100ths% ?

by Anonymousreply 32October 16, 2015 9:59 AM

OMG, it only now occurred to me as I dressed. I use scentless testosterone gel. I had started getting symptoms of depression. I was staying in bed and missing appointments. Then I got the gel, and returned to normal. Could these woman be sensing it somehow? It would account for the goofy "marry me" expression I get. You'd think a gay guy would pick-up on it. I use the Lubiderm after the gel, because otherwise my hands are sticky. (Yes, I later wash my hands before I go out so as not to contaminate the populous.)

I don't think it's the gel, but who knows?

by Anonymousreply 33October 16, 2015 4:25 PM

R32, I reject the use of Dove. It melts or sublimes or dissipates. Whatever it does, it disappears. I reject it!

It's your fireplace or firepit causing this

Nobody cares, OP. We can’t smell you thru the computer.
