Anti What?


The Sweat Absorber and Friction Fighter. "Indoors or outdoors, work or play or on occasions when you sit on your butt all day. Don't let your buns get red use Anti Monkey Butt Powder instead."

Seriously, this is a real product. Dennis saw it at the store a couple of months ago with the kids and after that they would sometimes yell out at each other for no apparent reason "Anti-Monkey Butt!" and I would just ignore them, because that's what I do when they say things that don't make sense, or have the word "butt" in the sentence. But yesterday while picking up his prescription at Rite Aid (formerly known as Brooks around here) he couldn't resist and had to buy it. The kids are still looking at it and cracking up. The product is really just plain old powder, the ingredients are as follows: Talc, Calamine Powder, Fragrance. That's it. But the marketing people at this place are genius. The name of the company . . . Anti Monkey Butt Corporation of course. It says that it is "ideal for butt busting activities such as motorcycling, bicycling, horseback riding, truck driving, hiking, hockey, football, and baseball." I just thought that this was too funny not to share. The laugh our family got alone made up for the purchase. So do yourself a favor, pick up some Anti Monkey Butt today for yourself or someone you love, because no one wants to have a bright red butt like a monkey!
