Baby Blues by Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott for November 15, 2024

Ninjas are so fast they don’t stick around to need deodorant.

It probably doesn’t burn as much as the aftershave Macaulay Culkin used!

This reminds me of the tagline from the old Irish Spring soap commercials from the 1970s, where the woman would say of the product “Manly, yes. But I like it, too.”

Sounds like something Hammie got him for Father’s Day.

Is that career oriented?

He bought it online from China. The more accurate translation is ‘carpet stain remover’.

“B O dorant”

Manly smell?

Darryl is close to losing his man card.

Better than Axe.

Hey! I use the same deodorant!

Oh, he’s a lumberjack and he’s OK….

It actually smells like jasmine.

“Strong enough for a man but pH balanced for a woman.”Or should we go with Arrid Extra Dry?

Rather have the burn than the stench of AXE body spray.

Rub it on his nose. RUB IT ON HIS NOSE.

Mostly it smells like the color brown.

You will smell like every other teenage boy in the world.

So it’s not an all body deodorant….

It’s a great timesaver. It’s not for after shower, it’s for instead of shower.

There was an ad back in the 1970s about an underarm deodorant/antiperspirantthat didn’t sting when put on freshly shaved underarms. The women in that ad flapped their arms like Darryl is, before switching to the no sting deodorant.

If Hammie was older, I say Darry borrowed his…

Careful…it’ll grow hair on your chest.

Especially if you shave your arm pits.

Not a pretty sight for me first thing in t he morning

Many people come to me and they say, “Hey, how can you be such a swinging sex god?” Well I tell you. I’m a unique guy. The kind of guy who likes to have his own special scent. That’s why I wear tuna fish sandwich. I put a tuna fish sandwich under each arm. I don’t smell like any other guy. And it’s economical too because the smell lasts four or five days.

Wanda prefers Ninja Cowgirl Chef.

Aside from woodchips, what would that even smell like?

thanks to whoever makes odorless deodorant (sounds ironic)

If I use a different deodorant, shampoo, bodywash, or shaving cream from my usual, I will be distracted by the unfamiliar scent for the rest of the day.

hmm… sounds brawny!

Love that the “new” all body deodorant advertised on TV for women has a male counterpart for sale. Same ingredients, just a different “manly” name.

He wants to smell like Paul Bunyan, blend in the shadows like a ninja for work and talk like Sam Elliot but no mustache.

“Manly yes. But I like it too uncle Sean.” Irish Spring? 1970’s commercial?

Ninja cowboy lumberjack?

Ninja cowboy lumberjack?

Old Spice Sweat Defense Extra Fresh had a nice clean smell that I really liked. Unfortunately they discontinued that product.

How about “ball-playing cowboy superhero soldier pirate”? (The Carmalita Spats deoderant)

My wife ran out once, tried my cool freeze, last time. She said it burned and I said if you had some hair up there you wouldn’t feel it. Some comments are a little rough.

I would rather stink.

Darryl is a manly man like I am. Whatever we manly men do is inherently manly.

My favorite deodrant was discontinued almost a year ago so I have been trying different kinds but some make me break out in a rash or the scent doesn’t last long enough, I am having a difficult time finding the right one, I wish they would bring back what I used for years.

Covers all bases, I guess. Hopefully the ninja is careful with the axe on horseback.

Rick & Jerry, thank you for the laugh-out-loud-even-when-I-am-by-myself moment when I read the scent name!!!!
