Vulva?
I thought I'd run out of things to say. Nothing left but angst. I figured everyone on my flist had read enough angst, so that left me no other option but silence.
And then this morning I read (in Salon) that a German company is marketing a new fragrance that is called - and supposedly smells like a - "Vulva".
Thank you, Germans. You've amused me once again.
You may be forced to watch an ad first if you don't have a Salon membership. And fair warning: the site for the perfume itself - which I have NOT linked to here, but is linked to from the Salon story - is apparently quite NSFW.
I'm trying to imagine who would buy this, apart from exceptionally eccentric Germans - women, probably, although who knows?
The comments in the Salon piece are pretty funny, too. They cover all of the humorous possibilities that I've thought of so far (such as a male version of the scent, for example).
It would take the Germans to make me smile on a morning like this.

Vulva... for when you really want the world to know you're in heat and need as many horny guys as possible in a single day?
Vulva - for when you really want to convince your male boss you need a raise?

Shit...the designer fragrance for German porn stars.
Or does that require too esoteric a knowledge of the world of pornography? If you're wondering how I know, I could remind you that I worked in "the biz". But that would be a lie (although suddenly I remember that one of our magazines was called "Enema Digest", a truly unfortunate title).
In fact, that genre of German porn was was mentioned on SNL a long time ago, and my friend Steve did a series of movie reviews in cartoon form - absolutely hysterical - in which he reviewed, among other things, a movie called something like "Der Caviar Dinner". I leave it to your imagination. Or rather, I strongly urge you NOT to try to imagine it.
I need an icon to express absolute horror. :(
