My 10-year-old nephew uses Axe. Granted, I don’t think it’s the leather flavor, but he does use it. And like you said, he still can’t read that great. I can, and unfortunately just wasted a few minutes of my life reading this ad. Jeremy Dawson and Chad Petree are tools. I’m hoping that’s what I was supposed to learn.
Not even in the same league as the back of the “Honey Bunches of Oats” box.
Oh, and PS: They let the leather guy into the club because they were afraid otherwise he’d kill them. Not because he’s badass. Tools.
Actually, I was just hoping to help you to not feel so old. See, now you know who Jeremy Dawson and Chad Petree are! You’re welcome.
