So it's like hot and humid outside and well some one just walked past with way way way too much deodorant and it was like BAM!!! flashback to the early 90's
Back then little old me lived and breathed in Scotland, I worked in a factory putting computers together.
In the mornings I would get up early go downstairs to get dressed in front of the TV. Back in those days we only had one TV and it was in the main room. I'd pull on my pants turn on MTV (Europe) Dawn patrol was usually on so I'd get to watch videos while I ironed my shirt.
While the shirt was still warm from the ironing I'd flip it on and follow it with a quick blast or two of lynx (axe was marketed as lynx in Scotland) deodorant. Back then lynx came with a separate lid and spray nozzle not like the twist and spray of today.
Well this one time I pressed down a little too hard or maybe at the wrong angle and the sprayer nozzle broke and the can proceeded to empty itself. I tried putting the lid back on and it kept popping off under the pressure. I ended up tossing the spray can into the yard but not before it had fogging up the whole room.
meanwhile on the (m) TV Bjork "Human behavior" was playing. So from that day on whenever I smell way too much perfume or deodorant I can hear Bjork singing"
"If you ever get close to a human
And human behaviour
Be ready, be ready to get confused"
