My Experience with the Veg

I knew I had to try the infamous veg at some point, so I put it in my latest order from Atlanta Barber Supply. I had a pretty low expectation, and, when I smelled it, my fears were confirmed. It smelled like talcum powder and horse ****. But I decided to try it anyway, and there was absolutely no difference in the scent. So, instead of pouring it down the toilet because I didn't want to waste the $5-6 I spent on it, I poured it into a bowl and set it outside. Being the pyromaniac I am, I made a little bowl of fire with the veg instead of using it for its intended purpose. And it still smelled like urine… Have you guys ever done anything with the Veg or any other aftershaves besides using them or flushing them?
 
I poured some in my cat box to see if I could tell the difference between the Veg and cat pee. Unfortunately, I couldn't.
 
I, too, was not chosen. Trying to find a use for this stuff, I thought it might make a decent mosquito repellent for the back patio. It worked great, but then no one could use the patio for a couple of weeks, until I finally washed it down with bleach. The side benefit: it took care of every fire ant mound in the yard.
 
Don't you need a hazardous waste certification in order to burn "The Veg" anywhere in the continental U.S.? I use it in diluted form to keep stray dogs off of my lawn, and to scare off unwanted blind dates--I know it is extreme, but it is sometimes the only thing that will work.
 
Wonder if I could use it for my problem deer that eat our plants? Use of predator urine is highly recommended as a deer deterrent.
 
I feel the same way about Masters Bay Rum. I got "clove sick" after applying. I think if I set it on fire though, it might create a noxious cloud similar to Chernobyl. SWMBO and I agreed that it's a "Christmas-y
scent so that is the only day I'll wear it....if then.

As soon as I get some more dough, I'll probably PIF it rather than destroy it.


I actually like Masters Bay Rum, but I found that it was even better once i added a splash of Gabel's Lime to it for a citrus note along with the bay and cloves for a more summery smell instead of a winter one.
 
Masters Bay Rum was like stuffing clove cigarettes up my nose. I had to wash it off with witch hazel to get rid of the smell.
