My office reeks of cheap cologne

[jane_pippin]

The janitor has taken to dousing himself in Polo--or its knockoff brand which, judging by the divine scent it leaves behind, must be called "Horse Ball."

So now I've got a sore throat, a headache, and my lips feel kinda numb thanks to whatever chemical combination makes up this alluring aroma.

Good thing I can open the window to get a crisp, refreshing breeze on this nice 25-30 degree day!

What's your Fake Friday grievance?

1. You just don't understand ...

3. Maggie Perkins is clearly delusional.

Sorry Maggie.

6. Smells like daddy!

The best combination yet is cheap cologne (lots of) combined with a synthetic shirt on a hot summer day. Sinuses be gone! :scared:

[jane_pippin]

7. Haha! It kinda does smell like daddy.

Ugh--in the summer it's awful. Beer sweat mixed with cheap cologne, fighting with all its might to bust through the polyester clinging to a hairy, wet gut full of fried cheese. Bleh!

8. Sweaty?

Carrie Bradshaw can't even spell C-h-e-a-p Cologne !:bounce:

11. Maggie likes guys who buy $2.00 "cologne" at Safeway

And did you notice that Old Spice and Aqua Velva now come in the EXACT same bottle as valve cleaner for your car?

2. Did your boss finally leave?

That was pretty scary.

[jane_pippin]

4. Ha--yeah it was. He did, but he's coming back later today too.

And tomorrow.

Maybe, just maybe this cologne will get me sick enough to justify leaving early. Maybe there's a sliver lining here.

5. Bahahahaaa! "Horse Ball"!

:rofl:

Sorry you have to smell such a thing.

9. Could be worse - it could be Georgio and your office would reek for weeks

14. You make a fine point there, and I can't disagree with it.

Although it could be--oh now I forget what the Designer Impostor name for it is, or if Georgio is the designer impostor. Anyway it could be that stuff. (I'm not up on my girly stuff trivia.)

10. On the upside, I smell like Amarige!

:P

My grievance....hmmm... kid coughing until he pukes for the third day in a row.

[jane_pippin]

15. Ah, lucky you! : ) Sorry about the kiddo.

I hope he gets better soon--that's a long time for a little kid to be stuck feeling like crap. No fun.

12. You work in a police department?

:crazy:

[jane_pippin]

17. Ooh, zing!

No, I don't. But sometimes lots of city inspectors swing by to check for building code violations, which is similar in that they work for the city, often have moustaches, some have been shot at on the job (not at our building of course), and they can write us up and give us fines if they find problems so...yeah.

13. Does he have email?

go to the box on the left (pre-recorded)and pick "little song for you".

16. At first glance, I thought your subject line read CHIMP cologne...

Then I wondered why Chimpy was in your office.
