Deodorant Memories

Deodorant Memories

So yeah, evidently I was using women’s deodorant for an extended period of time, even though it didn’t say “FOR HER” anywhere on the package.  As for the Tag antiperspirant, I wasn’t sure if it was intended for women, gangstas, or art school students.  I bought it anyway.  I really liked the design.

I also bought some manly-man “THIS IS FOR MEN STUPID” deodorant, just to be on the safe side.

This may or may not have something to do with a minicomic I made for Lutefisk Sushi.  For those who have read the story, please do not post spoilers in the comments.

    Just another example of why I think there should be a Life For Dummies textbook. Something that tells you all the things that everyone else seems to automatically know but which I apparently missed the memo about.

    I’d so buy that book.

  2. Mike Terry says:

    Wow! I love your comics, and your story, and drawing style!
    Coolness!

  3. Ryan Dow says:

    Something tells me the Life For Dummies book would be very, very large, Bobby (at least the version written for me would be).

    And thanks, Mike! I’m glad you like it!

  4. Lupi says:

    lol. Yes, Men’s deodorant has pictures of manly things, like…I dunno, armpit hair?

  5. Ryan Dow says:

    Like a picture of a lumberjack punching a shark.

  6. Peter Allen says:

    Or sailing ships, or they’re named after top-heavy chopping implements.

    SPOILER: Ryan fights Gideon Graves for the hand of the lovely Ramona.

    If it makes you feel better, my favorite deodorants where Right Guard and Speed Stick. Alas, that changed when I married Loki. He wanted a less mannish aroma out of me. Now I use the gender- neutral styling of ADIDAS Cotton-Tech deodorant Alas, it was discontinued.

  9. Ryan Dow says:

    I’m trying to think of deodorants named after sailing ships. All I can think of is Old Spice, which is probably wrong.

    Do I conquer all with the power of love, Danno?

    I still have a bottle of Adidas cologne somewhere. I didn’t realize they made deodorant. Makes sense, though.
