So I was in need of Laundry soap. Vegan laundry soap is a total thing, so I normally pick some up when I land.

I ended up getting some from Zum, they are most known by me for making goat milk soaps which I can't use, but their laundry soap was fine. Only 5 ingredients, easily verifible.

The scent they had is Frankincense and Myrrh, so I figure I'm going to smell like a 0 AD stable in Bethlehem.

Rad? I guess we'll find out!

As a further aside the inclusions of Frankincense and Myrhh by the wise men was a potential allusion to the crucifixion as it was most normally used in funeral rites.

So I guess I'm going to smell like a 0 AD wake.

This is sounding less and less cool but I'm going to make it work.

I got to use my theology degree today!

I'm going to my parents church on sunday... Let's hope that doesn't burn... But I can just see someone asking, why do you smell like a barn and a funeral?

@NiveusLepus
I bet you smell yummy!

This is said in the most respectful way it is possible to say such a thing.

I love Zum products and if anyone has a problem with the way you smell, there must be something wrong with their olfactory glands. Hopefully no one will.

@janallmac I will happily take that compliment as intended but normally when people say I smell yummy, I get to running.

It's a species thing.
