Remember THIS?? (Seriously. Click the link.)
I’d now like to now share two equally as awesome products with you.
First up in our tour of odd products, these….
Hoo-ahhs.
Yes, you read that correctly. HOO. AHHS.
I’m not certain of their intended use, but they seem like something you might be given after you’ve given birth. Like the Tucks Pads or Preparation-H you get from the hospital, or the sitz-bath they tell you take, but nobody will leave you alone long enough to actually, you know, TAKE ONE.
And last, but OH! certainly NOT LEAST. I’ve been dying to show this one to you all, because, well….just look at it!
Anti-Monkey Butt Powder?? Seriously!?!?
WHO needs this????? But more importantly WHY would someone have a raging case of baboon ass???? (Maybe I don’t want to know. AHEM.)
And now for the world’s most inappropriate segue…
This past weekend’s Blissdom Conference in Nashville was truly fabulous. I met so many great women (too! many! to! link!) and was inspired with some new ideas for this blog, including at least two more posts for my Blog Tip Sharing Project series. Thanks to Blissfully Domestic magazine, Alli (Mrs. Fussypants), Karla, Epson, and One2One Network for such a wonderful experience.
I’m first? No way.
Okay: Monkey butt? What is that for people who eat too many bananas?
Loved the segue.

lmao, I like your use better, but the Hoo-Ahh’s are going to just be moist towelettes for soldiers. You know, they wipe down with baby wipes when they can’t shower, wash their faces and hands with them, they have about a thousand different uses for them in “the sandbox”. So, since the top corner reads “field towels”, I’m guessing someone put unscented baby wipes in camo packaging and is making a ton of money off of wives and moms who are buying them for care packages.
And the powder!! I’ve actually seen it in stores. lmao! It’s for chafing, like heat rashes and such. And I guess the packaging is for the 12 year old boy in all of us. lol
Can’t wait to read more in your series and I LOVE the new header. That is a great tag line!

My husband has some of those hoo-ahhs thingys. They are diaper wipes for hunters. Seriously. Unscented so they don’t throw off the game. I asked him if he knew they made regular diaper wipes unscented also at, like, a fraction of the price. But these are in a camo wrapper, he says! LOL
I really wish I could have made it out to Blissdom! I always have so much other stuff going on anytime anything fun and out of town comes up like this.
Wonder why my latest post never shows up anymore?
I know I’m not the first to say this, but yeah. The Hoo-Aaah’s are for soldiers. And to tell you the god’s honest truth? No, we don’t buy them for our husbands because they are hella expensive and only have like 20 in a pack. When you are in the field (hence the ‘field wipes’) it’s better to have whole packages of baby wipes. I send my hubby the big refill packs out in the sandbox. Lord only knows when they actually shower. (When they come home from the field they still smell like ass. Same with the sandbox. Anything that was sent there, is from there, or spent copious amounts of time there needs a real scrubbing.
Glad you had fun. You deserve a little fun after the month that you’ve had!

I may be 12 – but that makes my husband 10 and he’s totally getting MonkeyButt powder in his Christmas stocking! This might even top the nose hair trimmers I got him last year!

I actually saw that Monkey Butt powder at a Tractor Supply Store, and I nearly bought some just to say I had it.

I actually have a friend who uses Monkey Butt Powder! He drives charter buses for a living, and he uses it to prevent “Monkey Butt” (irritation and redness on his tush). He says anyone who drives for a living shouldn’t leave home without it.

It was great to meet you Jennifer! You. are. adorable! and obviously, super-savvy. also i would like to say that even when the Monkey Butt powder was free after rebate at Rite Aid, I did not buy it. Cause REALLY??? i hope i don’t KNOW or INTERACT with anyone who NEEDS it!
jenny from mommin’ it up!´s lastest post..‘Twas Blissful at BlissDom (and Epson ROCKS!)
My husband and I came across the butt-out tool in a walmart recently. He’s a hunter, but I don’t know that even he had seen it before. We looked at the package, looked at eachother-puzzled and looked back at the package, trying to understand WHY. Just WHY. He understood better than I did, being a hunter and all..but still, it makes my hiney hurt just thinking about it. YUK. Just YUK.
I am so jealous of all those who got to go to Blissdom. especially since I was told I couldn’t go because I don’t have a veejayjay. Do they make strap on ones?
lceel´s lastest post..But I have an excuse …
this is going to put all the other monkey butt powders out of business

OK, I’m DYING over here.
We refer to diarrhea as “monkey butt”…as in Damn, I have monkeys flying out of my butt!
I need to buy some of this to put in my husband’s stocking for Christmas!!!!!!!!!

Hey Jennifer!
I left you a present on my blog today!!! Enjoy!
Oh, and it is NOT monkey butt.
Deb´s lastest post..Update on Kreativ
Ha ha ha! It is when I see things like this that I am SURE that I could have been an inventor or something. Because if there is a market for Monkey Butt Powder, then I am pretty sure it’s safe to say that there is a market for ANYTHING…

Um. The least you could have done is offer free samples of these questionable products. Just plain inconsiderate that is.
Monkey butt. Ha!

I’d like to know two things:
#1 Why do the Hoo Ahhh’s have a military theme?
#2 Wasn’t the red bare assed monkeys a band?

I’ve almost recovered from BlissDom… a few more days ought to do it.
I think I’m about the 15th person to say this, but yep, they’re for soldiers. You know how the Marines say “HOORAH”, well the Army says “HOOAH.”
When we were “in the field” (away from running water) we gave ourselves “Whore Baths” with diaper wipes. Our Drill Sergeants told us to “hit the hot spots” which meant to wipe down our sweaty stinky pits and crevices. Fun times!

Those are some very interesting products, indeed. Wish I could’ve been at Blissdom – I write for Digital Bliss and for Blissful Home. Next time, I’m there!
As a PP said, the Hoo-Ahhs are just baby wipes in a “manly” package so soldiers don’t feel silly carrying them around. They have them in most Exchanges I’ve been to, never really thought of how odd they’d look to an outsider but I think they’re silly! Just paying money for a camo packaging.
Monkey butt…wtf? I’m not sure I even want to know. *hides*
Stassja´s lastest post..Iiiiiiiiiiiiit’s memetime!
looking forward for more information about this. thanks for sharing. Eugene
@Sarah, Thank you! I was wondering WHY it had the name “hoo-ah.” Now I know. And I think that the army might want to rethink it.
I thought the HOO AAAHS were condoms for a minute. Hoo ahhs in the UK is an expression in the South West meaning something like “I like it”. People will buy the most bizarre things. Monkey butt, now if you suffer from one of them you’re in big trouble.
Made me laugh

I have a friend who uses the Monkey Butt when he goes on long motorcycle rides. He thought enough of the product to say something about it one day, so it must do the trick!
Dory´s lastest post..In. Mah. Damn. HOUSE.
Personally, I love the monkey butt to BlissDom segue. Why? Who knows, but it’s funny.
I just published my recap post and I’M SO WITH YOU ON “MET TOO MANY PEOPLE TO LINK” thing. I lost steam towards the end, it was too long already, and I have about 100,000 words to go.
Instead? I cut and ran
.
GREAT meeting you, though…wish there had been more time to chat.

My husband and son race dirt bikes. They get the so called “monkey butt” from riding. They usually use “Udder cream”.
