Was Febreeze invented by a man.
IMHO, It had to be. Febreeze is the ultimat laundry alternative. It's like it was tailor made for lazy guys like me!

1. Oh, BS! The ultimate laundry detergent is piling your dirty clothes
in a sunny corner of the bedroon, so they're heat-pasteurized and ready to go again!

The second-ultimate laundry detergent is a wife. (What!? Who said that? Chauvinist pig!)

3. ...
Nope. You didn't say that. You'd never say that.












But then again, we all have our moments of weakness....

6. You know what's even easier than that?
If you wet a towel and throw it in the dryer with whatever you want the wrinkles out of. Let 'em tumble on low for a little while while you finish your shower or whatever and...

Perfect.

Of course, it only works on things that you can put in the dryer anyway...

7. yeah, my wife does that as well...
she tries to be spot on when the dryer goes off, and hang up the clothes from the get go, but sometimes we both slip up...I don't care about wrinkles at all, but my wife off balances me, because she is obssesed about them...:)

5. OMG! ROFLMAO!
There must be a hall-of-fame somewhere for the most appropriate use of a smiley - you would be inducted in a heartbeat! That is brilliant...

2. I'm allergic to it.
Once an asshole friend of mine tried to spray me with it. The result was physical violence. He never tried to spray me with Febreeze again.

10. Hey, Einstein.
It was invented by women to spray on guys who do not bathe or change clothes and stink like shit. You know what I mean.

14. Yes! I can't handle any of them chemical cleaners and crap.
They give me horrible headaches and everything. And it's so unnecessary. The all-natural cleaners work just as well.

And I just can't help to think how bad that stuff has to be for it to affect me so badly. It's not like I'm a "chemical free" person in other ways.

15. Gotta agree with you there.
:thumbsup: Most people would be shocked to find out what's in that. AND it's unhealthy for animals ... as are all artificial fragrances.

18. industrial garbage deodorant
Fabreeze smells exactly like the highly concentrated industrial deodorant that they use for dumpsters and garbage bins. I tried some a long time before Fabreeze was on the market and decided that the garbage smell was preferable.

16. It's just another symptom of our "lazy as doo-doo" culture
I get so disgusted every time I see one of those commercials where the person runs around spraying a bunch of stuff to make it stop stinking when the prudent thing to do would be to actually wash it. Clean clothing/bedding/curtains/etc. does not stink, m'kay? :eyes:
