Are you stuck in a Beauty Rut? We know we are…

We just need cucumber slices for the eyesI’m still struggling with the “bathe regular” concept, and the only “signature scent” I know is when someone complains.

Don’t mind me, I was just commiserating with the poor SOB I saw at the department store. This unfortunate had an anniversary to celebrate and was ill prepared to brave the Perfume Lady’s questions.

But it does bring to mind the gentrification angle, how the angling press is moving from guys with a day’s growth of stubble wearing yesterday’s shirt, to the new ultra clean, white smile, accessorized fisherman … like James Bond we can spend all day fishing, then slip into a white dinner jacket?

The folks here at SingleBarbed have always been free with our grooming tips,  we are poster children for a Beauty rut.

  • When roughing it, use a disposable fork for a comb, they’re free with a McDonald’s Happy meal.
  • Falling in to a river unintentionally counts as two showers. If you are wearing waders, then it is only one.
  • Waders condense and aggregate pheremones, remember the fair sex is unprepared for that much masculinity
  • Insect repellant mixed with wood smoke is an acceptable exfoliant

More importantly, if you have a significant romantic moment soon, and need that perfect gift, remember anyone can do diamonds. Get her that new fly rod you’ve always wanted, or a Lifehammer, anything’s better than facing the Perfume Lady’s scathing interrogation.
