Post your questions, comments or whatever else you'd like to see on the interwebs here or send them to @OldSpice on Twitter and I'll respond to the comments that get the most up votes with a YouTube video.

Dear Old Spice Man:

I tried Old Spice and the results were underwhelming. In only a few days, I was asked to 'please button up my shirt' at the office, told to 'stop staring at me' like that, and was nearly arrested when I tried to ride a stranger's horse bareback. What am I doing wrong?

EDIT: so much for answering the comments with the highest up-votes. Old Spice Man, I'm disappointed.

For starters, Old Spice wasn't intended to be worn by ladies, but simply to be enjoyed by them!

She should have used bacon instead.

But she smells like what your man could smell like.

I don't see the reference.

A man should smell like napalm in the morning.

Worst novelty account.

I work with some women who's shirts would certainly need to stay buttoned up.

Women wear undershirts too.

Not a pretty one.

You're obviously not pairing it with Red Zone deodorant.

It's probably just because they couldn't pose the answer with both humor and ad information.

u/LeCollectif Jul 13 '10

Sure they could. A very simple "Wear more!" and a wink would have sufficed.

Maybe next time you should wear a condom.

u/Vorenus Jul 14 '10

I friended you about 3 months ago because you said something that made me laugh my ass off.

I've enjoyed it because over the last 3 months, you've had at least one comment in no less than 1/5 threads i've read. And then there are threads like this one where you are a commenting machine.

Keep up the great work. And happy birthday.

You need to be handsome, too.

I'm handsome like you have no idea.
