Members mystofpric Posted October 30, 2008 Members Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 They use vodka to descent clothes in the theatre during preforences. Since most of the costumes are generally pretty fragile and/or hand made you don't want to be tossing them in the washer every night or between shows (sometimes you have a few in a day) so you fill a spray bottle and spray away! It kills the odor causing bacteria and doesn't actually have an old alcohol smell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Far be it from me to rain on your parade but please Pappy.....TELL ME IT AIN'T SO ! ! ! Hey I know its a guys job to do stupid stuff but you've always shown me a good bit of common sense in your writing here. WHY NOT R U B B I N G ALCOHOL??? It's right next to the Hydrogen Peroxide and often its 2 for a buck. For what I would shell out for a fifth of cheap vodka around here I could get 15 16oz bottles plus tax. Thats 7.5 quarts...ALMOST 2 GALLONS FOR CRYING OUT LOUD ! ! ! Now a page out of my youth. One day at the cabin by the lake I found a shitload (nest) of red ants in a roll of tarpaper. I was maybe 15. I pulled out the roll and spread it out. Then I found some gas and poured/dribbled it all around the ants and then dribbled gas on the ants and watched them go nuts. Even gas is cheaper than vodka. Thank goodness! As for #15 try this next time you get a sore tooth...Durex Brand "play longer" desensitizing lubricant for men. The active ingredient is Benzocaine 7.5%. I've used it for sore tooth and it works good. When I have anal fun I use this stuff. Sometimes I can get it for five or six bucks a pop so I stock up. Ok my job is done here. 12Gauge has left the room............ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
