I fucking love the smell of chlorine.

[–]ItsaKoopa 31 points32 points ago

As a swimmer, you miss it when its gone. Its like part of you.

[–]demontraven 7 points8 points ago

I love the smell of chlorine, but that shit needs to stay the fuck out of my eyes. otherwise I look like I smoked a shit ton of pot...

[–]NOACeulemans 3 points4 points ago

Agreed.

[–]CapAWESOMEst 2 points3 points ago

After I graduated high school it was gone, so I decided to sign up to the gym and just go there and do laps, and the drive home is glorious!

[–]doctorqui 1 point2 points ago

you know, you could like join a pool or rec center or something.

[–]MAYhien 6 points7 points ago

But theres reddit.

[–]ItsaKoopa 1 point2 points ago

Oh I coach a high school water polo team now, I still live with it :)

[–]orangelantern 0 points1 point ago

I still smell it on me days after i swim..

[–]studmuffffffin 3 points4 points ago

I heard once that it's not the chlorine smell. It's all the bad stuff. But then again, I am not a pool expert.

[–]frickonature 7 points8 points ago

It's chlorine. You don't smell the same after swimming in a salt pool.

[–]NOACeulemans 2 points3 points ago

Chlorine cleaning products smell the same way.

[–]AFatDarthVader 1 point2 points ago

It's the chlorine reacting with the bad stuff.

[–]Sommerfaq 3 points4 points ago

You must also like the smell of cum.

[–]doctorqui 4 points5 points ago

That's a different smell, more like ammonia I think. Bio gunk wouldn't survive if it was chock full of hypochlorite ions and evolving chlorine gas.

[–]ProxyMuncher 3 points4 points ago

...bio gunk is the best name for sperm I've heard yet. Have a cookie.

[–]empetrum 2 points3 points ago

HA! I thought I was alone in the world. Everytime I cum, I get super nostalgic of my swimming years.

[–]DeusExMachinist 21 points22 points ago

Reminds me of the pics of that girl who never closes her mouth: (sorry first google result)

[–]ISwearThisIsOriginal 6 points7 points ago

I hope the guy in the third to last picture is mocking her.

[–]dravinicus 3 points4 points ago

Does anyone know what long-time exposure to intense inhalation of chlorine water smell can do to lungs?

EDIT: words

[–]Willziac 2 points3 points ago

not gonna lie, I half expected the last picture to be her with a dick in her mouth

[–]studmuffffffin 0 points1 point ago

It's like bad joke eel.

[–]ilrelevent 0 points1 point ago

I just got more irritated and irritated the more I scrolled down

[–]munnyfish 3 points4 points ago

wharbl garbl

[–]menapan13 3 points4 points ago

Exactly what goes through my mind when doing breaststroke....

[–]scottsdots 1 point2 points ago

Do you exhale underwater as you stroke, then breath when you're moving your arms back to 'start'? Not doing that was my mistake.

[–]AFatDarthVader 0 points1 point ago

You should be breathing when you're moving your arms toward your chest.

EDIT: I just realized that's what you meant. 'Start' meant the elongated position to me. My bad.

[–]scottsdots 0 points1 point ago

No worries! I'm not exactly "a swimmer" so I hardly have any terminology nailed out. S'just something I learned myself (gosh the headaches I got when I wasn't breathing enough, glad I realized I was doing something wrong) and wanted to share in case it was helpful.

[–]menapan13 1 point2 points ago

Yes I breath when my arms are coming in towards my chest. My problem usually is that my breath control is very poor and so I go into panic mode during my pull out and so I accentually go into 'this is air fucking delicious' mode from then on out

[–]chemguy90 2 points3 points ago

That's when air taste the best.

[–]trolltrolltrolld 2 points3 points ago

As a former division 1 swimmer at a top program, this was what was always going through my head during practice. Gah I don't miss those days of being underwater longer than being above it.

[–]TKHC 2 points3 points ago

Holy shit, that's a photo from my school's swimming carnival a few years back. That kid could barely swim so I guess the air was fucking tasty.

[–]CastleNation[S] 0 points1 point ago

Good to see that I'm not the only redditor in my neck of the woods

[–]TKHC 0 points1 point ago

Caitlin?

[–]gabezermeno 2 points3 points ago

I think you mean dericious

[–]jackass150 2 points3 points ago

Dude you're not supposed to eat the air.

[–]mapkinase 1 point2 points ago

c'mon, no Simpsons reference?

The upper jaw?

[–]nikkikan 1 point2 points ago

same feeling during a multi-mile run.

[–]Realworld 1 point2 points ago

Learned to swim underwater as a toddler, years before formal swimming lessons. Went on to become a professional lifeguard and swimming instructor. Still feel more comfortable swimming underwater than on the surface.

[–]MrNothin -1 points0 points ago

Dericious.

[–]wallyvonwalters 1 point2 points ago

I swear swimming for me is like a fight with the water the whole time.

And every single oxygen molecule I want to breathe is busy being bonded to two hydrogens.

[–]Silverswimmer 0 points1 point ago

Swimming post! I don't know what to say..

[–]Cyrino420 0 points1 point ago

You mean dericious.

[–]moosaveenya -1 points0 points ago

I read that in Aziz Ansari's voice. It makes it 200% funnier.

Well now you're excluding all the short-of-breath pandas out there.
