A few months ago, we were at a supermarket with my mom, buying some stuff.

My mom needed an antiperspirant. When she was about to grab a black one, I heard a guy "helpfully" telling her that she was grabbing one "For Men™", that the ones "For Women™" were the pink ones.

I immediately looked at the guy like "lol what, who asked".

(My mom uses "men's" antiperspirants because she doesn't care about that, and they are usually cheaper than "women's")

I was at the grocery store with my brother in law and saw some guys girlfriend giving him shit over the men’s scents for body wash.

“Men’s stuff all smells like wood. Why?!”

Without skipping a beat, I ran over, picked up a bottle and said “whoa, I want to smell like wood”

Girlfriend glared daggers at me, as apparently I had just diffused the debate of the century, while her boyfriend was giving me thumbs up and smiling.

For the rest of the day, my brother in law and I would respond to everything with “smells like wood”

The ancient Egyptians used sandalwood to produce perfume oils. Smelling like wood isn't ever going out of style.
