    Oh shit that took me far too long.

    But when did this horrible trend start with young men putting like half a bottle of cologne on them?

    (it’s a major issue for me due to sensory overload)

      I’m pretty sure it’s been a thing since cologne was invented.

      FWIW I went to high school in the early-mid 00s, and during those days, it wasn’t cologne - it was Axe body spray. My friends and I would joke about there being ads in the future similar to the, “Did you work at such-and-such and develop mesothelioma? You may be entitled to compensation.” Except instead of asbestos filling your lungs and giving you a disease, it’s Axe. That crap was in the air perpetually.

        Fair, but we’re noticing a huge rise in the city in the last months.

        Seems to be a ‘recent’ trend for young mens to overdo it.

          I doubt “application” has changed. You’d be better off looking at the types of scents being sold over the years.

            I don’t think it’s the scent but the amount but not an expert either 🤷.

            Anyhow for me the only option is again just staying home, that’s what neurodivergent do.

      I remember in highschool that some of the other boys seemed to think AXE body spray was an adequate substitute for showering regularly.

      It’s not. It just makes you smell like AXE and BO.

    Find a colon scent that works for you. You’ll be surprised how women respond to it and it’ll make you feel more confident! One of my favorites smells like wood and leather, for example.

    If “Bologna” is “baloney”, should “Cologne” be “caloney” or “calonay”? Or colony, it’s a cognate of the roman place name “Colonia Agrippina”.

        USians have decided so, and they’re certainly not going to start using the Italian pronunciation! If they were that smart, they’d already do it (it’s not hard to say ‘Bolonya’).

      I defend with “Colonia Agrippina” only if the enemy knows both Capo Ferro and Thibault. Of course they rarely realize I’m not left handed.
