You..., you.., secrete me.

mephisto6: So what happens to the dissenters? They get bannished to the shipping dock?

Dissenters were punished by catapult.

When I was younger, I'd go visit my g/f who lived in the college dorms. She'd always keep the shirt I'd worn that day. She said it smelled like me. I don't think that pheromones were involved, but I'm not a biologist, either.

miss diminutive: Our office took a vote, as I recall nearly 3/4 of the office voted to make it scent-free. (to my surprise Ms Pine-Sol voted for scent free as well)

This would make sense to me if there were people in the office who had a scent MS. Pine-Sol didn't care for. It could be she was drowning herself in perfume to mask what, to her, was an offensive smell from some other source. I've worked in an office or two where between the curry and the patchouli it could be difficult to read a computer screen because your eyes were constantly watering. It made me understand those "scent pouches" some people wear as necklaces.

mephisto6: Anyway, can't we just wear soap and sweat?

I am late to the thread, but if you don't wear any sort of deodorant then she may be delicately trying to hint that perhaps you should wear some.

When I was in the third grade (44 years ago), we got this new chick in class who had just immigrated from China. To this day, I still get turned on thinking about how she smelled.

John Hopoate: Warrener: TommyymmoT: Whenever I see a girl I'd like to meet, I introduce myself, and present her with my dirty underwear, usually in a heart shaped box.
Right there on the street.
It's more romantic that way.

Why no, I'm not married.
Why do you ask?

I simply ask them if they want to smell my sheets.

It's just as effective.

I get them to smell my undershirt, it's doused in chloroform though....


Ah chloroform, the ultimate aphrodisiac. They never say no!

Careful buddy. Stating you get turned on thinking of a third grader is going to require you to have a seat over there.

Why don't we just jam our noses in each other's ass cracks like dogs? That seems to be next on the agenda.

Eh, she's not shy and would say, "meph, you need some damn beodiyzer if we're going out." She does not like to camp at ALL, though and hates fishing.
Hmmm.... you might have a point.

powhound: i love you all.....

Y'know...in any other thread that would have had me smiling...
But in this thread....

This is of course a brilliant idea, so let's all mock it.

No. Seriously. Sure, you won't be able to match up personality types, etc., but there's time for that later. This will match people up by immunities. If we did it for all of society, maybe we wouldn't get Not Sure.

So when men ask me for panties I've worn all day, I shouldn't be freaked out? They're only trying to find a mate?

If dating is not going well
and you've gone through a dry spell,
then just take the bait
and sniff out a date
and find true love based on a smell.

*looks at the pic in the article*

So the plan is that someone takes their dirty laundry and lets it marinate all day long in it's own juices inside a ziploc bag.
Then when you get to the bar, it gets passed around and everyone uses it to wipe the snot off their noses.
Yeah, I don't care what you smell like, it's that's your definition of clean and sanitary, I don't think I could stand living with you.

I don't know about all you farkers but I thought about this song when I read about it.

ArmednHammered: I just fart in their general direction. If they can't handle that, I'm not going to waste any more time on them. Yes I am single, why do you ask?

Then fart away! I don't mind the smell of gross things at all, I'm an abnormality I think. LOL!

I dated a girl once who would smell my armpits during sex. Freshly showered or with the scent of a day's work, it didn't matter.

/she was pretty freaky

Ed Finnerty: I don't think that problem is limited to guys and cologne. There's a few ladies in my apartment building who use so much perfume there is a strong trail of it in the hallways, the elevator, and into the parking garage - even when the person is long gone.

One day I could actually *taste* the perfume in the air.

Yeah I don't get that, I wear perfume fairly often and use a couple spritzes - usually just spritz on my wrists and then dab it on elsewhere. Makes me wonder how some people put it on..you're only supposed to use a little!

Once I was on the sidewalk, no one else nearby, and got a whiff of cologne when a car drove by...unless I was smell-hallucinating it has to be pretty strong for me to be able to smell it from ~10 feet away as you drive by in a car! I felt sorry for the other passengers.

I think your projecting, there, Peter File. I just said that I remember her smell. Leave it to the fark pervs...

/eight-year olds, dude.

miss diminutive: Even if this is total bs, if it'll make even a few men stop dousing themselves in cologne before walking out the door, then it's worth it.

I love it when a new fad coincides with laziness, it means that I can start saying I've been doing it all along.

I don't think they'd ask if they intended to rape me, unless they were very polite rapists.

That wasn't cologne, that was Axe/Lynx body spray. Oh holy jayzus the memories are starting to well up...

(Reposting from another thread that is a repeat that will probably get redlit...)

Farking NYC and LA...

My wife, some friends and I were chatting yesterday some of the weird aspects of living in a big city like NYC, Chicago, LA, etc. I used cuddle parties as an example to show how the hustle and bustle of a city can cause one to go to "extremes" to find intimacy or at least some "normal" human interaction.

This is just another example of the weird shiat that comes from folks who are not well socially adjusted, living a super fast paced lifestyle in a big city that genuinely lacks proper human interaction. I guarantee 99% of us who will read this article find this behavior and "dating style" to be truly bizarre and not normal.

I know cuddle parties, pheromone parties and whatever bizarre "party" comes next is only attended by a small percentage of the population, but it certainly does not help your place of residence look any more normal.

WELL everything in my house smells like semen. luckily semen is the ultimate aphrodisiac

Don't knock it till you've tried it.

mephisto6: JustinCase: Maybe just use it for sexy time?

We actually did that this morning during a shower, and I'm ok with that. It was going out for lunch that got the discussion going.

Nidiot: Unless you tried it and honestly just can't stand the smell at all

I really have no idea what the scent is, other than i don't like wearing cologne. Don't think i stink... She wraps herself up in my shirt and takes them home (we don't live together, yet), a trophy thing? Who knows. It's not a deal-breaker yet, just bringing it up because scent's the subject and someone brought up cologne.

Anyway, can't we just wear soap and sweat?

If you want an indecent exposure conviction.

Add another six months to your "before living together" schedule. If she doesn't drop this subject, or exhibits more controlling behavior, start shopping again

Those pouches are called "pomanders" and they ward off plague. This doc's "beak" is a variation:

"Delicately hinting" is what ruins relationships.

ms_lara_croft: So when men ask me for panties I've worn all day, I shouldn't be freaked out? They're only trying to find a mate?

No, they're trying to offer you money. Take it and buy new panties.

1) Should this have been a photoshop thread instead of "Strange"?

2) The reason why people OD on cologne/perfume is they spray it on until THEY can smell it. If you wear it regularly you will get sensitized to it, so you have to keep giving it that extra spritz. Ergo, everyone within 20 feet from you starts collapsing and making choking gestures with their hands.

Heh heh. Good suggestion. I'll be a walking Japanese vending machine.

Does this shirt smell like chloroform to you?

Can this be love?

Endive Wombat: in a big city that genuinely lacks proper human interaction.

Say what? There's plenty of "proper human interaction" in a big city. There are sociopathic retards everywhere, in a big city you have enough of them to come together and do weird shiat that gets reported and freaks out the flyover people.

Ya'll oughta get a whiff of what I taste in the air everyday.

/at least it's organic

You smell fat.

Human pheramones are only released when aroused and account for almost nothing in human biochemistry. So you're more or less just passing around dirty laundry, blegh.

Hey, this is my t-shirt! Oh... I guess that makes sense.

Didn't the show Lexx make a joke about this?

One of my old first sergeants used to smoke a pipe, and he and his office always had a light, pleasant, masculine "cherry-bourbon-whatever" scent going on. It was a conversation starter and sort of marked him as "approachable and friendly" for troopies of all ranks. As a result, that guy probably knew more than anybody else about what was really happening in the unit.

/smelling good can have benefits outside the dating game.

Ive got a guy for you...Russian dude at the place I work. Hes so soaked in the stuff Im fairly sure the scent trail he leaves behind is flammable....

May I be first to point out that this constitutes a huge portion of any First Sergeant's job?

mephisto6: She wraps herself up in my shirt and takes them home (we don't live together, yet), a trophy thing?

Not sure: It might be hardwired into the double-X chromosomes. Spouse would sleep in my shirts when I was sent away on temporary duty elsewhere.
When they were much younger, my daughters used to take my flannel shirts in the winter - from the laundry hamper - to wear over their jammies. And they wouldn't use the ones I bought for them, nor would they take them out of the closet or the dryer.

PS Subby, is the SICK tag sunning in Daytona?

Just wait until the Japanese panty vendors find out about this...

I dunno, the one woman who's scent did that to me, while an amazing ride (only a little pun intended) was a bit much, we didn't last. For finding a short term fun relationship, sure, for long term, maybe not.

That's a given. But most troopies aren't keen on striking up a casual conversation with their first sergeant. In turn, what the average first sergeant knows about his/her troopies is mainly acquired via the paperwork that crosses that first sergeant's desk -- followed by a direct interrogation. However, Approachable Pipe Smoking 1SG was provided with the type of idle, casual gossip from the troops themselves that might, for example, alert him to who the problem drunks were BEFORE they got a DUI. All because his office smelled so good that it invited a conversation that started with "Damn, Top. Your office smells good. What is that stuff?"
