TIL I should eat beans before a date.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 52 points 10 months ago (1 children)

This is lemmy, we'll encourage you to eat beans for all scenarios

[–] arrow74@lemmy.zip 14 points 10 months ago

Beans are very nutritious high in both protien and fiber. Truly a great food

When you wait until he's asleep and then try on his colon.

Like a glove.

Jokes on you, these were actually written by dogs enjoying the sweet scent of manass.

[–] Strider@lemmy.world 44 points 10 months ago (7 children)

Oh shit that took me far too long.

But when did this horrible trend start with young men putting like half a bottle of cologne on them?

(it's a major issue for me due to sensory overload)

[–] Whats_your_reasoning@lemmy.world 26 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (2 children)

I’m pretty sure it’s been a thing since cologne was invented.

FWIW I went to high school in the early-mid 00s, and during those days, it wasn’t cologne - it was Axe body spray. My friends and I would joke about there being ads in the future similar to the, “Did you work at such-and-such and develop mesothelioma? You may be entitled to compensation.” Except instead of asbestos filling your lungs and giving you a disease, it’s Axe. That crap was in the air perpetually.

[–] blimthepixie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 10 months ago

It was always Lynx/Axe Africa as well

[–] burntbacon@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 10 months ago

Oh god, the smell of the middle school side of the building... it was putrid. Axe mixed with with misted body odor from the boys who had gym in the morning.

[–] Soapbox@lemmy.zip 25 points 9 months ago

It's not just young men. There are men and women of all ages who wear too much perfume or cologne. I seem to be allergic to some of them, because I will often have my sinuses suddenly clog up, get a massive headache and swelling in my throat from smelling them.

On multiple occasions at work, it's been so bad that I have to go ask a coworker to take over helping a customer because their perfume is giving me such a severe reaction. Then the perfume continues to linger for hours after they are gone.

I remember in highschool that some of the other boys seemed to think AXE body spray was an adequate substitute for showering regularly.

It's not. It just makes you smell like AXE and BO.

It took reading the comments for me to realise this was about cologne.

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 25 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Find a colon scent that works for you. You'll be surprised how women respond to it and it'll make you feel more confident! One of my favorites smells like wood and leather, for example.

[–] ramble81@lemmy.zip 33 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Love to know what your diet is.

They're actually a beaver.

Then it would smell like vanilla

If "Bologna" is "baloney", should "Cologne" be "caloney" or "calonay"? Or colony, it's a cognate of the roman place name "Colonia Agrippina".

[–] TheOctonaut@mander.xyz 24 points 10 months ago (2 children)

If "Bologna" is "baloney"

It's not

I defend with "Colonia Agrippina" only if the enemy knows both Capo Ferro and Thibault. Of course they rarely realize I'm not left handed.

[–] Zwiebel@feddit.org 6 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

Colonia Claudia Ara Agrippinensium or CCAA was the name. Today it's Köln tho so good luck with that :p

[–] rumschlumpel@feddit.org 5 points 10 months ago

At least put an "e" on the end, goddamn

[–] Juice@midwest.social 13 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I'm so spelling pilled I thought that was the joke

[–] axexrx@lemmy.world 16 points 10 months ago (1 children)

No joke, those women are just into pegging.

[–] Juice@midwest.social 4 points 10 months ago

Magnificent

Why thank you, I can bottle some up for you later..

Would any of you like to try my colon?

Or a bunch of us get together and try each others colons, like a gang?
Wow, imagine how eye opening that would be. The lovely fumes of all those used colons just hanging in the air...

[–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Women : Ew, he looked at pictures of feet? That gives me the ick!
Also women : Oh, that guy is coming by...

[–] zarkanian@sh.itjust.works 5 points 9 months ago

This might come as a shock, but women have a wide variety of opinion on different things, much like men do.

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 9 points 9 months ago

Köln*

Colon is closer in spelling than Cologne

[–] FridaySteve@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Shout out to Colon, Michigan, magic capital of the world.

[–] bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 12 points 10 months ago

I hope it's a sister city of Darmstadt, Germany.

[–] SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (5 children)

How much cologne do these guys spray on? It’s the least concentrated scent, it’s 90% alcohol. Shouldn’t last longer than an hour or two.

Or do these people think cologne is what parfum for men is called?

[–] BananaIsABerry@lemmy.zip 5 points 10 months ago (3 children)

These terms are interchangeable from a product sales perspective.
