I think I will start to export my new cologne to Saudi Arabia called "Night Train Express" followed but what I hope is also a success, "Wild Irish Rose".

Can I get some investors?

Very considerate of the medical examiner(assuming they have those). When they are opened up they should smell all pretty.

Wow the Middle East is messed up.
We pay $10 for a 2 oz. bottle of cologne and $3 for a 40 oz malt liquor.

Don't they know that they can just get drunk off of vanilla extract, a la Tom Hanks as the alcoholic uncle on "Family Ties" circa 1984?

Brains suck. I wish I hadn't retained that for the last 18 years.

cologne - my anti-drug

Speaking of that, my dad used to drink mouthwash in the car when I was little. In a brown paper bag. Hmm.

No... no... no... They were only mostly dead.

Logweasel: HAHA! I actually tried that after seeing that episode!

I'm continually surprised that I managed to live through my teen years.

The terrorists have already won... now they're drinking cologne in celebration.

Dislcaimer: Not everyone from Saudi Arabia, nor everyone who drinks cologne is a terrorist. YMMV

BTW, when my dad was in the Army and his unit was scared off their a$$e$ that they were going to be shipped out to die in the jungles of Southeast Asia, they'd drink aftershave filtered through a loaf of bread..... no wonder I'm classified as Level 3: Severely Retarded.

Was it Old Spice maybe?
 
2002-06-10 11:45:02 AM
Any chance we could air-drop cases of Brut?
 
2002-06-10 11:45:54 AM
wonder which is worse, cologne, or old milwaukee

Don't people know that if you throw some yeast in sugar water it will make alcohol? It needs to ferment for 4-5 days then you can bottle it or distil it???? Beats poisoning yourself.

But mostly dead is slightly alive.


You rush a miracly you get bad miracles

You know what would really be Ironic?

If those guys who drank the cologne, actually thought they were drinking Drano, and thought that it would give them super-intelligence as well as clean out their system. That way they would have an army of super-intelligent soldiers with super clean intestines that could invade other countries and steal all their cologne. Then they would smell real good and be able to get hot chicks.

Thinning the herd? Youbetcha!

Cologne..the cause, and solution, to all of life's problems.

Bad_CRC:

The worst would be "Milwaukee's Best", the beer whos target market is "people too drunk to realize it's not Old Milwaukee..."

And in other news, 11 residents of the German city of Cologne have died after eating Hamburgers and Frankfurters.

Germany - it's not a country, it's a Safeway.

"Thanks, I needed that!"

If they just want to taste some alcohol, why not try rubbing alcohol? It's cheaper than cologne and it works, uh, really well (If you're trying to kill yourself, that is).
 
2002-06-10 12:21:55 PM
I say our foreign aid program to Saudi Arabia needs an increase in the amount of cologne sent.
 
2002-06-10 12:25:24 PM
They finally found another reason for Brunte thank God!!

Evil stuff it is!!

 
2002-06-10 12:26:03 PM
I got a couple bottles of Old Spice laying around since 1987 that I would gladly donate to this very worthy cause.
 
2002-06-10 12:27:09 PM
I'm partial to Hugo Boss, myself.
 
2002-06-10 12:30:30 PM
Ignoring the taste, can you get drunk off cologne without dying, assuming it's not adulterated?
 
2002-06-10 12:34:51 PM
No, cologne has rubbing alcohol (methanol) in it. That will not get you drunk, but will make you sick or die. You *want* to drink ethanol, that's the fun stuff.
 
2002-06-10 12:44:57 PM
The big secret alcoholic beverage that any kid can buy in any supermarket today is Angostura Bitters....it's stronger than vodka (45% alcohol) and won't kill you like cologne will. However, good luck putting down more than a teaspoon of that nasty stuff!

:)

XSLUMLORDX, rubbing alcohol is isopropanol. It'll kill you, but it'll make you blind long before that. Methanol is similar, but it'll kill you quicker. (Lethal dose is 8 ounces for Isopropanol, 4 ounces for Methanol.)

But if you're going to drink either, Methanol does smell nicer.

*Falls out of chair laughing*

Cures, head aches, runny nose, cancer, and even keep the in-laws at bay!

Go Brut!!!
 
2002-06-10 01:25:56 PM
Nice one Nicesweat, always love a pun.

Maybe they should all switch to Formaldehyde or Robitussin DM. *discuss*
 
2002-06-10 02:10:29 PM
hehehe

i'll bet it was calvin klein's "eternity".
