(Or Axe as Americans call it.)

That's what I thought when I read this headline:

"Boy dies after using too much deodorant"
LONDON: A 12-year-old English boy collapsed and died from heart problems after spraying too much deodorant in the family bathroom.

Daniel Hurley was overcome by the solvents in the can and collapsed in the bath. He died five days later in hospital.

An inquest heard that Daniel died from cardiac arrhythmia, or abnormal heart rhythms, caused by solvents in the Lynx Vice spray.

Finally, not only is it the worst smelling shit, now it kills too.

    I was thinking you were talking about the webbrowser - anyway, the stuff is called Axe.

    There is like some universal law that you have to wear huge amounts of this stuff at some point in highschool.

    The guys I used to row with called it "Shower in a can" because they would just cover themselves in it instead of washing after we trained.

    It's like a bunch of people who hated Axe all came together in a meeting and brainstormed ideas for a commercial that would creep people the fuck out and turn them off to their products forever.

    I find it hilarious in a terrifying kind of way. Like "Hey, doesn't this dude realize that these chicks only like him because he tastes like chocolate? What if they still try to eat him after he's turned back into flesh and blood thinking now he's vanilla flavored?"

    In college they gave us free Axe samples, and we would fuck with people on our floor by spraying it in their rooms. I always thought of it as chemical warfare.

    Turns out that's more correct than I could have imagined.

    Axe is worthless because it's incredibly overpowering at first and then lasts like 10-15 minutes.

    I usually shower and use soap.

    Then I use some simple deodorant. I do this everyday.

    Sometimes, if I get all sweaty from work or after hiking around the woods all day trying kill animals, I shower again.

    I use body wash because it rinses off cleaner and doesn't get pubic hair stuck to it.

    I can't use body wash because the water in my area is harder than hell and you don't get enough lather unless you use like 1/2 the fucking bottle.

    I hate water softeners because it's expensive to use potassium salts and the sodium salts are bad for you.

    Lynx may be just the worst deodorant going. It provides no help against sweating and lasts until you leave the house in the morning. Should of invested in a real deodorant.

    So since apparently Axe turned him into chocolate when the stuff wears off he'll fall to the ground screaming to high hell because his arm has been ripped off, he melted down his hand, and tore off his own nose.

    I'd rather see that commercial.
