I have lived with two men in my adult life. I have sufficient expertise.

There was a break between them, but yes. I occasionally wonder why I agreed to live with one again after having had a blissfully tidy and pleasantly scented 2+ years living on my own.

Back in my university days, I worked maintenance.  Over a holiday we had a sprinkler go off putting about an inch of water on the floor of the girls side of the dorm.  Our job was to help out the residents dry out when they returned.  The RA on the floor, who lived alone, had the messiest clutters and simply gross room of the entire floor.  All kinds of dirty clothes, and FHP all over the floor.  My colleagues and I were quite sympathetic toward whoever she ended up with.

Farts aren't men-specific though.

I am assuming you mean her expertise in being off topic ?

I used to be messy, then I had a roommate in college who was VERY particular about how she wanted to keep our flat (this was in the UK) -- she had a weekly schedule of what days were for dusting, what days were for changing sheets, etc. etc. At first I really resented it, and then I kind of enjoyed how it kept the place in order without having to do a ton of work all in one go. I took on her good habits when I came back and still have something of a rotation. On the other hand, she's the woman who enabled he-who-must-not-be-named in his inability to even make a decent sandwich, so there's that.

You can refer to me as Her Serene Off Topic Highness. 👸 It just comes naturally.

It is not off topic, I think it is the same topics off topic.

I'm thinking about starting a hair/makeup/grooming topic in off topic if you would like to take part in that.

I've become quite knowledgeable about male grooming needs over the years, in particular beard care and scent recommendations. Happy to share those. I know that @Boketto and I had a good hair convo starting.

NATURE BOY!!!!!! Please reconsider. I can find you a great multiuse product that is NOT Irish Spring. That is so stripping of important oils to keep your skin healthy. Maintaining adequate moisture is really important as we age, because frail skin opens us up to potential skin infections and wounds that are harder to heal.
