13417432, Wednesday I found out my father in law uses AXE body spray

And it's on thing when you just run into him, he smells good, but when it's a spray in the house, it's a lot.

I found out because he added it to the grocery list since he couldn’t take aerosol on the plane. So the can came in Wednesday and it was an abundance of fragrance in the house. I chalked it up to the spray.

He left this morning. And the can was on the banister so I was about to put it in the drawer for when he comes back

Yall, the can is empty.

Empty empty.

13417450, I wonder (but I don’t) what young locker rooms are smelling like.

I went with Band as my only elective after beefing with the coach for Intro to Team Sports, but that was pre-Axe. The competing clouds of body spray on top of post-PE FONK has to be awful.

My grandpa and dad were too snooty to let me use anything not in an expensive glass bottle.
13417462, Honestly one of the worst things I can smell on someone is Axe

Why on earth would anybody be flying right now? Again maybe there was a reason that couldn’t avoided but I thought you were posting all these articles about how unsafe flying is....and I agree it’s best to avoid at this point
13417459, I still feel that way.

But I wasn’t able to convince my in-laws.
My MIL came down a week before the baby came, quarantined before leaving, got tested, then for the first week stayed i the house with her mask on. We all masked up and I opened up the windows. Then she got tested again and stayed for a month and change.
Father in law quarantined from before Thanksgiving on, got tested. Got results. Flew. Came in Sunday. And then we masked up until Wednesday. I kept the windows open the whole time. Stayed away and even kept a mask when around.

13417468, Gotcha. Well sounds like y’all did good considering

13417470, It’s very stupid. You can’t negotiate with a virus

If they were so itching to get down here they could’ve done a short term rental ... one is retired, one works from home.
I floated that. Nada.
I also am the Debbie downer of the family group text. Every link I’ve posted here I’ve sent to the text before.
But I get the human side of it.
Meanwhile I’ve now seen her parents more than mine this year and mine live ten minutes up the road.
13417471, How else you expect him to chop up these.....oh wait

You said FATHER in law... not brother....
13417472, Him single but almost 70.
Posted by MEAT, Sun Dec-20-20 09:30 PM
I imagine he smells almost 70 without that good.
I like the dude a lot ... but that was a lot of fragrance.
A whole can.
