Arm & Hammer & Sickle


A utilitarian, no-nonsense antiperspirant deodorant invisible solid stick, probably marketed at invisible, solid, sticky people; people who, if given any choice in the matter, would forgo deodorant, oh that parasitic uniform of a society that withholds their natural right to smell of cheap French onion soup; people who had, perhaps, previously attempted to mask their underarm pong with dishwashing detergent and, feeling still unsatisfied with the results have finally succumbed to the ungodly deostick, but, by Jove, if they're going to smear something armpit-wards, it shall be markedly devoid of newfangled frou-frou; people so lost in careers that they feel their overall production capacity might make up for any odorific whiffs, and anyway, who in this crazy work-a-day-world has time to consider such idle niceties as not smelling like a wet, dying capybara, and, fine, if they must wear some deo, it's just to get ahead at work, and it comes in a package that looks kind of like some steroidal weight-gain product, which, funnily enough, causes me to sweat so much that I can't use doorknobs anymore.
