I was running late, half-awake, and trying to get out the door in five minutes or less. I grabbed what I thought was my deodorant, gave each armpit a generous spray, and immediately thought, “Huh… smells kind of like coconut and shame.”
A few minutes later, my underarms felt like I had powdered donuts taped to them. I looked down and realized I had turned my pits into chalky snowdrifts. Dry shampoo. Maximum hold.
Had to go the entire day avoiding hugs, high-fives, and any motion that involved lifting my arms. At lunch, someone asked why I smelled like a beach in winter. I just said, “New cologne.”
Now I double-check every spray can like it’s a bomb.

I’m just going to take this opportunity to point and laugh😂🤣
Ironically I sprayed deodorant on my hair a few weeks ago, thinking it was my dry shampoo.
this is why I use stick deodorant.
I once used bathroom cleaner instead of shampoo 🫠
I once used lube as a face cream :))
Thought I grabbed a can of body spray, but it was shaving cream – big streak of foam across my chest
Once I figure out I am running late. I stop rushing as I am going to be late anyway. So I just take my time.
Was due to start work at 9:30, I simply walked through the door at 10:15. Was asked why was I late. Simply stated I woke up late.
Not telling them I had breakfast, stopped and had coffee inside the coffee shop for once rather than a take away. Watched some people rushing around getting coffee to take away. I was sitting there smug.
OMG, I’m actually laughing out loud reading this! “Coconut and shame” is hilariously specific and way too relatable for those half awake morning moments. We’ve all grabbed the wrong can in a rush! The powdered donut pits and spending the whole day trying to keep your arms glued to your sides… pure comedic pain. Definitely a reason to double check those cans forever now!
