Try Not to Smell Like a Pimp When Working Out! Enough With the Cologne Already!

I was working out today and some guy hopped on the treadmill next to me and he must have been wearing 5-10 squirts of super strong smelling cologne. What is worse is that I actually recognized the scent. It was a popular cologne in the mid 80's called Drakkar Noir. This stuff is strong enough on its own, but this guy was swimming in it!

The Story Gets Even More Brutal...

People would walk by the treadmills where we were working out and over half of them thought I was the guy "pimpin' out"! I never wear cologne. I'm really not a big fan at all. For some reason I have a hard time breathing around most cologne. I prefer the smell of soap and a really light deodorant (don't let me get started on super strong nasty smelling deodorants like Old Spice).

I'm Disturbed By the Increasing Trend in Cologne

It used to be that guys would wear maybe one squirt of cologne before going out on a Friday or Saturday night, but a lot of the younger guys are wearing heavy amounts of cologne on a daily basis. It just seems weird to me that a guy puts on Dolce and Gabbana before playing basketball with his friends. Something doesn't seem right about that! I'm not against a "hint" of cologne, but if a guy leaves the room and you can smell his cologne 2 hours later...that is offensive.

End of rant :)

Yep...I went into the locker room last week and experienced this again. I really dislike it when people wear too much cologne!

Ron...that is hilarious! Cucumbers and Good and Plenty. I hate Good and Plenty candy...black licorice has a weird taste to me. How do they make that flavor? It tastes like Sugar mixed with Evil. Same with black jellybeans and jaegermeister.

Yeah...I Know what A&F smells like as well. About 12 years ago I used to run Structure (now Men's Express), right next to an Abercrombie. That stuff makes my throat close!
