hai karate only smells good to someone else that's wearing hai karate too.

'Fess up. Which one of y'all lifers was wearing this stuff back in the day?

Shit was the '60s & '70s & granddaddy of Axe Body Spray.

Every bottle came with a "self defense chart..."

And the campy commercials:

Okay. I'll confess. Here was my 60s go-to scent.

He Who Must Be Obeyed asked me to stop wearing my favorite scent, when we started dating. It is hard to let go of something that contains so many memories. He gave me his honest opinion. He did not pull any punches.

I, too, was a victim of marketing.

 

[Wild_Honey_66]

I hope he took you shopping to find a new favorite.

 

[john_johnson]

I don't wear it but it is a classic, and the name will be forever awesome!

 

[phrodeau]

"Your girl, or even your own wife."

What kind of culture are they trying to promote?

I wondered if anyone else had noticed that.

I'm just curious. When he said you smelled like a cheap whore, did he mention a specific dollar figure?

 

[Fata Morgana]

Blast from the past. Do you remember the cheesy advert for Blue Denim aftershave in the 70's? Old Spice with O Fortuna is still a classic!

 

[Queersetti]

Don Draper couldn't convince me to wear that stuff.

 

[butters]

i remember that stuff first boyfriend liked it and Brut ('enry splash-it-all-over)

never did cover the smell of car oil

 

[Wild_Honey_66]

I don't recall my dad ever wearing anything other than Aramis.

 

[Recidiva]

First husband wore Drakkar Noir.

Marketing victim.

 

[Queersetti]

I don't recall my dad ever wearing anything other than Aramis.

Funny....I remember him wearing a ball gag and leather jock strap.

 

[Wild_Honey_66]

hehehe

no no no, you've got him all wrong.
there are a couple of actors who remind me of my dad. when I can remember their names, I'll get back to this.

 

[Cindykay]

Hai Karate!

Yes I liked the smell on guys! Better than Aqua Velva...

 

[Wild_Honey_66]

My ex wears Aqua Velva... when he showers... which isn't often...

I liked you better as nowisthetime85.

 

[Wild_Honey_66]

I liked you better dead.

 

[ms_ann_thrope]

You've lost weight...and changed races. It's a goddamned miracle.

 

[Wild_Honey_66]

well it is Sunday, and I had nothing better to do.

 

[ms_ann_thrope]

The Lord's Day. You could pray.

 

[Wild_Honey_66]

for rain, and a flood to swallow you up and carry you off?

that'd be a start.

 

[ms_ann_thrope]

There's nothing like that in the forecast so if it happens, you would have wasted a miracle on a frivolous pursuit.
