Shampoo shopping shouldn't be this fun

If you've been reading this blog awhile, you already know I love finding humor at the grocery store or on the aisles of Home Depot. You'll find a complete collection of such posts if you search the tag "garage porn."

Friday afternoon, I was on a quest for some new shampoo and moisturizer. The mission took me down the health and beauty aisles at several stores, revealing the following giggle-worthy gems:

In case you're wondering, this tastes nothing like Kool-Aid.
I honestly don't know where to start with this one. Big Head for Men? Really? Power Play? Firm Finish Gel? I want to believe the manufacturers intended each of these innuendos. Or is it funnier if they didn't?
There's actually no innuendo here – just a lot of disturbing details. Like the helpful drawing and descriptive product name. Or the fact that this product is being sold at the Dollar Store. Or the non-specific instruction at the top about not using if torn. If what's torn?
The only thing better than instantaneous growth is the accompanying tingling.

Seen anything amusing during your recent shopping adventures? Please share!

My eye doesn't tend to catch things like this, but that's another reason we're lucky to have you.

I choked on my breakfast reading the colon cleanse label. :)

Pervert. That says BED HEAD for men, not "big" head. Honestly, get your mind back up into the gutter!

Right there with you on the firm power play, though...

When my daughter was born we received a huge tube of Boudreaux's Butt Paste. Apparently it was for the baby.

What bothered me most was that the Super Colon Cleanse said "Convenience Pack." Is there an inconvenient pack? How is this convenient at all? It's a colon cleanse!

My all-time favorite is chicken poop lip balm.

Bed Head is every bit as dirty as Big Head...maybe more. Bed Head has always made me think of sex hair. Bed Head for men makes me think of...well. Head. In bed.

Have you ever seen the cans of spotted dick? It's like bread pudding with raisins.

Finally, company on the rocky road of naughty thoughts! I am frequently in Nuendo, and it is often lonely there. No one else will admit to living or shopping there. Just today, on a social media site, someone said he explained a bidet to his son by calling it an 'ass sink'. My mother loved her water pik, so to her it was a p---y pik, even though she soaked her stockings in it-
