Ah, to be independent from your parents and siblings – it’s freedom that most college students aren’t ready for, believe it or not. Case in point: you live like a slob ’cause your mom always did your laundry, and your idea of clean is hiding a mess until the smell becomes so repugnant that calling the fumigators may be a lost cause.

Living with like-minded slobs doesn’t help matters. It’s all fun and games until you find yourself less likely to sleep at home and more likely to crash on somebody else’s couch. You have a dorm/apartment so utilize it, you slob!

Here are some convenient and affordable tips to keep your living area clean:

Buy toiletries in bulk

I know the first thing you’re thinking is “What the f*** are toiletries?” Well, “toiletries” is French (or something) for “bathroom stuff” like toilet paper, bathroom spray, shampoo, conditioner, cotton swabs, toothpaste – you know, that stuff you’ve never bought yourself.

Somewhere within a 20 mile radius from your living space is a Wal-Mart, or even better, Sam’s Club. Take a weekend trip with the roomies twice a month to stock up on all the essentials for cheap. If there’s no super-savings store near you – or if you don’t have any source of transportation – ask that guy/gal who goes home every weekend (there’s always one) if they can pick you up a bundle of bathroom stuff. Tip ‘em nice and you’re in the clear with a clear conscience.

One more thing: use the products; don’t just stock them up for show. (more…)

Wanna know what stinks? Celebrities.

Maxim listed the 16 “Famous People Who Look Like They Smell” and I must admit, just looking at the pictures makes me feel sick. Some of these people are really f**kin’ grimy.

After the jump I’ll break down the 6 smelliest looking celebrities; make sure you check out the Maxim list to see the full 16. (more…)

You know what stinks? Everything, everybody, every moment of life.

Ok, really: in this current, war-torn world of ours, life can get pretty bad, even disastrous – but that is not what we will be talking about here.

I’m talking about things that stink, like when you leave your overworked and underpaid job an hour later than usual, run to the bank as quick as possible before it closes to cash your check just to find out it closed an hour earlier.

Sucks – or rather, stinks – to be you.

Your rent check is going to bounce now and your landlord is gonna call you up, all pissy and annoying – just like last month. It’s not the end of the world, but it sure as hell stinks.

Febreze knows alot about airing out messes, so what better company to start a web campaign called “What Stinks?” based upon things that inconvenience everyday people. (more…)
