You Smell Good…

by PkWynn on December 14, 2009

I know I can’t speak for all men but I know for most them, the taste and smell of bacon is really intoxicating. Much like how this Taco Bell commercial depicts how bacon attracts men to women. Which leads to my next story…

Ever wake up so late there’s no time to do anything but to put on your work clothes and head out the door? No showering, brushing teeth, spraying on cologne or perfume, putting on makeup or even something as simple as putting on deodorant. That was me yesterday. I was supposed to be at work by 9 AM and my alarm didn’t go off. I woke up at 8:44 AM in a frantic state, put on my work clothes and the only hygienic thing I did was gargle some mouthwash. I looked like a total wreck, looking frazzled with my hair uncombed and eyes bloodshot red.

I see this very attractive redhead girl wearing a cute pink outfit standing in my checkstand. It was lunch time, around noon. She was buying a pre-packaged salad bowl and a bottle of water. If I didn’t know any better she looked very stuck up so I kept my poise and just did the usual greet.

Me: Hi…

No answer…

Me: Would you like a bag?

Pretty in Pink: Nu-uh.

Pretty in Pink: What’s that smell?

I was hoping she wasn’t referring to me because I had the potential to smell like old garbage.

Me: Uh… what smell?

Pretty in Pink: It’s strong but it smells really good and it’s coming from you. What are you wearing?

Is she messing with me? So I played it off like I was wearing something and the first thing that came to my mind was…

Me: Oh, it’s Michael Jordan’s cologne…

Pretty in Pink: Wow… I didn’t know there was such a thing.

As it turns out it was the 8-piece fried chicken and jojo’s under the counter that a customer left behind.

    Truthfully, I’d rather my boyfriend smell like chicken than cologne. Like me, miss pretty in pink must have been a food lover. You totally should’ve asked for some digits, then slathered on the Season All. SCORE

    Never thought about it before, but I much prefer the smell of most foods to cologne.
    Where I’m a bit puzzled — I’m pretty sure I’d be able to identify the smell of fried chicken.
