Another "You know you have a problem..." situation
You know you have a problem when your wife tells you to buy some Irish Spring soap but you're drawn to Dove soap because it looks like it's made with Columbus Tubing.



That is all...

Lighter, stiffer Dove soap. I'm the same way too. Just with other stuff. (An example fails me.)

Is the Dove soap double or triple butted?

Hmmm, that would depend on how many butts are in the shower.

Dove is nice, but Irish Spring has the "aye, and I like it, too" thing going for it...
Which means double-butted, unless she's very open minded.
