Can't quite put my finger on what this new bath oil smells like.

The dirty sheets after
two marshmallows have sex.
...
Or maybe three marshmallows.

Niiiiice.

This one actually make me guffaw.

It was actually more like a guffaw peaking into a squeak and then collapsing back into guffaw again.

Thi N said...

But seriously, what would it smell like for two peppermint hard candies to have sex?

I mean, *think* about it.

Could peppermint candies have sex? Is that even physically possible?

Thi N said...

A peppermint candy and a can of Italian tuna in olive oil. The tangy, penetrating smell of their sex.

Carla said...

I can actually imagine that, and I don't know if that makes me even more fucked up than I already knew I was.

On how two peppermint candies can have sex:

frottage.

Carla said...

Chafing. Uncomfortable chafing. And if you're a peppermint candy, the additional danger of bits of your body breaking off.

Twizzlers.

On the original poem - did I mention that I really like the original poem, not just for being funny, but for giving me a very intense and nearly hallucinatory clear sense of how your bath oil smells?

Carla said...

Thanks! It's true, incidentally. It's the closest I can come to capturing how this stuff smells.

Yes, but is this a good thing? Is this good bath oil, or a horrible, horrible mistake?

Carla said...

This is actually a good bath oil, if you can believe it. I'm deciding that I'd rather smell like lustful marshmallows than...many other things I can think of.
