The AXE effect

The axe effect.

Just thought you'd find it ammusing.

That is incredibly stupid. Let's wait for the lawsuit now. And maybe other people doing the same thing just to cash in as well.

Stupid.

[edit]

I just checked my can of Axe:

"FLAMMABLE: DO NOT PUNCTURE OR INCINERATE CONTAINER. DO NOT USE WHEN SMOKING OR IN PRESENCE OF FIRE, OPEN FLAME, SPARKS, OR HEAT."

So much for that lawsuit. :p

Hahahahahaha. He deserves it. And good lord, how much did he spray on?

not to mention "KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN"

I think AXE is pretty much covered.

Yep, it does say flamable, I just checked my can as well. It's in very small print though, but it is there.
I can't think of anything to put here right now.

3rd degree burns. *sigh*

You would notice that you're on fire before it has a chance to burn your skin. It burns the axe first, making a horrible smell of burning axe and hair, but dosen't hurt you.

Say you cover your arm in it, and light it. It'll burn a warm blue-ish and not hurt, but it stinks like hell. He would've noticed the smell before it would cause damage.

I know this because I used to have some very "Special" people as friends.

I once sprayed on cologne, and a friend took his lighter and put it too my shirt and like this flame went racing up my shirt. Was quite cool!

It sounds like he used SO much AXE that the room was filled with the vapor and the vapor ignited and caught him on fire.

Why would a 12 year old need so much AXE? "cuz dheres dis girl and shu'll give me a blowjub lolorofl"

Because everyone and their freaking brother feels the need to use half a can of the crap.

It smells like cheap cologne. Get over it. Or burst into flames for your stupidity, and for buying into a trend.

Personally, I'd perfer the bursting into flames part.
2005-05-20, 2:09 PM #16
Maybe he has a BO problem and uses a lot of AXE to hide it. :d Either that or he thinks its good to stink out a room in a matter of seconds :D
2005-05-20, 2:12 PM #17
Yea, me and my friends play with that stuff all the time. We spray Axe on each others hands, light one of them and then high-five each other, lighting the others. I'm trying to figure out how a 12 year old can be so stupid as to not know an aerosol can is flammable. I think I learned when I was, what, 7, 8?

Simple. The kid was smoking pot and was trying to hide it from his parents. He sprayed the AXE on his body to cover up the smell on his body and clothes, then lit the incense to cover the smell in the room.

I just hate how axe and now this tag stuff remove all subtlety that was left in a commercial industry that no longer sees any need to hide the fact that they're boldly lying to your face.

They don't just imply that girls will be all over you, they show you a commercial full of girls who've clearly just screwed someone, and then straight-facedly attribute it to their crappy body spray.

That stuff is called Lynx over here, and I'm baffled as to why they changed the name.

Might be differnt products entirely. There's more than one kind of that body spray available here.

Everyone at my school has to use tons of axe every hour of everyday, the stuff smells like ****-in-a-can.
The tired anthem of a loser and a hypocrite.
2005-05-20, 4:25 PM #26
Yeah but the ladies love it.
At my school anyways...
2005-05-20, 5:05 PM #27
Thats because the ladies at your school are impressionable, air headed, tanorexics that need to get skin cancer, die, and stop wasting perfectly good oxygen.

(Was that enough pop-culture for you? Though I could have probably thrown in something about metrosexuals... but I'm not going to diss myself.)
2005-05-20, 7:47 PM #28
What can I say? They give good lovin'.
2005-05-20, 8:50 PM #29
I think that commercial with the girls getting it on in in random places is hillarious. Is it gonna happen if you wear Axe? Of course not, anyone taking the commercial this literal is ****ing retarded.

Is it a clever marketing tool that creates buzz and gets the name into peoples heads? Apparently so...

Women do like it though, sure they aren't all over you (Colone does that) but the stuff does smell good.
I can't think of anything to put here right now.
2005-05-20, 9:33 PM #31
There's only a couple Axe scents that actually smell good. The rest just smell... bleh.

I (so far) favor Tsunami, which unfortunately smells progressively different as the can empties. Or maybe I imagine it.

I honest to god hate the ****, and expect women to as well...but...they don't. I wear it every now and then, but people who bathe in it should be shot.
A desperate disease requires a dangerous remedy.

A major source of objection to a free economy is precisely that it gives people what they want instead of what a particular group thinks they ought to want. Underlying most arguments against the free market is a lack of belief in freedom itself.

I don't understand the fascination with AXE. Daily showers, with soap, some normal Old Spice deoderant, and cologne for special occasions and I'm set. Honestly, who needs to spray cans of aerosol deoderant all over themselves?

I don't use any body sprays or anything like that. Whenever I go out, I just apply a little cologne to my neck and wrists, and some unscented (so it won't clash w/ the cologne) deodorant, and I'm good to go.

Cologne is good when used in small ammounts; Ideally, it should only be able to be smelled when she is very close to you. If she can smell you across the room, you have used WAAAAAAAY too much, which is the case with many of these body sprays. I can always tell where the poor impressionable tools who use axe have been even an hour after they left. The smell gets on everything, and chicks tend to have a way better sense of smell than we guys do so it's just overkill to use too much scent. That's why less is more with cologne.
2005-05-21, 12:07 AM #37
I got some axe shower gel, just to see what it was like. I opened the cap and almost passed out, seriously. That stuff is just... ugh. And the girls at my school... DO like it. I don't use it at all, cause it's just so sleazy smelling, but chicks dig the whole greased out mafia hit man, grand theft auto three fido-esque smell.

-I'll have to try that fire thing sometime.

When I wear axe (rarely) I have to use a lock and chain for a belt to my pants.
Those women just come outa nowhere and BAM you're on the floor going "wtf?"

Of course non of this actually happens but the fumes from Axe make you THINK there are women everywhere throwing you to the ground, and the chain around your pants is there to keep yourself from pulling down your pants while hallucinating.
2005-05-21, 1:19 AM #39
Eeesh, around here, if a woman notices you are wearing axe she'll go "couldn't find a more original scent?"
I'm Hugo Boss all they way and the "You smell really nice" comments just won't stop...from both sexes :)
Yeah, you stay here and take life seriously. I'll go and have some fun.
