I think that we can all agree that soap was a fantastic invention. Very, smart.
Adding fancy ingredients and packaging to create a billion-dollar industry. Very, Very smart.
But, as usual, some folks take a good thing to the next level, one that I like to refer to as “dumbass.”
Here are a few examples:
Beer Soap:
I don’t get this. I work to rid my body of the booze odor after a night on the town. But, I guess if you’re a die hard and really want to keep the party going all day long, this could work. I just wouldn’t recommend washing your kid’s mouth out with it. If you’re partying that hard the offspring already has a few strikes against him.
“Weener Kleener” Soap:
Here’s another adult-only recommendation. The Weener Kleener promises a “stimulating” method of personal hygiene. I can’t really vouch for it since I am, after all, the female type. But it seems to me more like an interesting way to clean out the pipes.
Bacon Soap:
Why bother? Just grab a can of Crisco. That should do the trick. Plus, if there’s no egg and cheese involved, I’m not interested. Also, on a side note, it’s not a particularly good Bar Mitzvah gift.
PB &J Soap:
Now, here’s something a little bit more appropriate for the ankle-biters. According to the description it "smells just like grape jelly," and as you can see is cut into the shape of a sandwich. I typically don’t let my children bath in what I’ve given them for lunch.
Baby Hands Soap:
Personally, I have my hands full with the babies I’ve got. Two words, Creep-Y.
SOAP on a rope? Whoever designed these items are real DOPES on a rope!
May their businesses live short and perspire--in Bankruptcy Court!
Thank You!
