Smells like teen spirit

During the days of the project submissions, (and more often than not, after the various parties), after everyone stays over somewhere, everyone comes to college smelling of the same perfume.

You know the old Jungle saying "man who smell good have no bath."

Have no idea why the dudes in the Jungle have bad grammar, but the point is that while saying this may seem pretty silly, it is an accurate historical fact, which probably makes it funnier.

Who makes the best perfumes in the world - the French. Connect this to the fact that the Frenchmen have a reputation of bathing only once a year... and now the old Jungle saying does not seem stupid anymore.



The French have a rich history of perfume, and half the class owes this to France. The French also are known to make good wine. Perfume and Alcohol - the flagship industries of France. So much so that they are often mixed up. French perfumes have alcohol, and French alcohol have additives that give them a flavor (60% of the flavor is the smell - eat an onion with your nose blocked by your fingers, and it will taste like an apple).

Will probably go to sleep now, or will have to head over to college after a french bath, and people will ask me whose party I had gone to...
