He smells like cookies, actually. I have that in my car.

[–]psychocandy007 9 points10 points ago

Indeed. With a hint of pipe tobacco.

[–]Patrick_Glenn 5 points6 points ago

I have it too. It lost the scent about three years ago.

[–]Nachtmensch 1 point2 points ago

I came here for this. My friend still has her air freshener sealed and it has a faint smell of cookies.

[–]Danner001 119 points120 points ago

Smells like freedom!

[–]FISTED_GRANDPA 22 points23 points ago

Tastes like it too.

[–]Danner001 9 points10 points ago

Is it wrong to wonder what your fist smells and tastes like?

[–]FISTED_GRANDPA 16 points17 points ago

Nelson Mandela.

[–]why_fist_puppies 5 points6 points ago

I suppose you never said whose grandpa.

[–]ANAL_QUEEN 2 points3 points ago

D:

[–]FISTED_GRANDPA 5 points6 points ago

ಠ_ಠ

[–]ANAL_QUEEN 4 points5 points ago

Hey, I don't touch anyone's grandpa.

[–]nbshark 2 points3 points ago

Why would you wonder that. Don't wonder that. Please.

[–]WrethZ 2 points3 points ago

But it's a breakfast cereal!

[–]Danner001 3 points4 points ago

You are welcome (:

[–]Psythik 3 points4 points ago

Smells like repost.

[–]BatBurgh 3 points4 points ago

beat me to it. h/t to you

[–]oh_my_jesus 2 points3 points ago

And hope.

[–]ivanmarsh 1 point2 points ago

Was there any other possible answer?

[–]heardlb -3 points-2 points ago

It stinks like sex

[–]AlexDeLarge655321 0 points1 point ago

Read up on SA lately?

[–]SulliverVittles 7 points8 points ago

I've been looking for this air freshener for years. Apparently the original scent on the air freshener was chocolate chip cookies. I can dig it.

[–]TheDankestMofo 0 points1 point ago

Same. Originally got it from Amazon, but they've been out of stock for ages. It's been hanging in my car for over 5 years now.

[–]megustadotjpg 27 points28 points ago

Cotton candy?

Sigh, /r/ImGoingToHellForThis

[–]lily1346 10 points11 points ago

Your joke doesn't work. Nelson Mandela is African, and cotton picking slaves were an African-American thing. Black ≠ African American.

</buzzkillington>

[–]captainzigzag 4 points5 points ago

Also, he is from the royal line of the Thembu tribe, so about as far from slavery as a man can get really.

[–]ocupidstunts 10 points11 points ago

That took me a while to get, but in this case that's a good thing, right?

[–]steelfrog -1 points0 points ago

I don't get it. I like to think I'm better than you because of it. NO ONE INFORM ME.

[–]wingie 3 points4 points ago

Black slaves used to pick cotton.

[–]synthion 1 point2 points ago

Damn you. But also thank you.

[–]bkm190 9 points10 points ago

As a black guy on reddit, I sorta get jokes like this, but after seeing so many, every single fucking time someone even remotely dark skinned is mentioned, it really wears you down.

[–]wavepad4 -1 points0 points ago

Oh, lighten up.

[–]a-Centauri 2 points3 points ago

oh.. cotton candy

cause he's black

[–]soymilkisgood 11 points12 points ago

Smells like a repost.

[–]crosschris 4 points5 points ago

I thought it was one of these adverts!

[–]jimmypopnl 0 points1 point ago

me too, although I enjoyed this one more. it'll get you wankered!

Nelson Mandela's Fighting Beer

[–]zipp354 2 points3 points ago

Have it in my car, it smells like vanilla when you first get it, but fades pretty quick

[–]Kramereng 4 points5 points ago

Cinnamon and apartheid.

I can tell you that these Obama brand pens I found in Tanzania were more economic than quality.

[–]Ozzertron 1 point2 points ago

...Should be Nelson Brandela airfreshener amirite?

[–]Icanus 2 points3 points ago

Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela, leader of Umkhonto we Sizwe.
Terrorist with the blood of hundreds on his hands.

[–]CliveCorbz 0 points1 point ago

You've only read up to there? You're not very far. There's quite a twist later on!

[–]ManicParroT 0 points1 point ago

George Washington, leader of the Americans. Terrorist with the blood of thousands on his hands.

[–]NoahinVirginia -1 points0 points ago

I had those air fresheners and it smells like cookies.

[–]shitty_pencils 1 point2 points ago

Fried chicken, malt liquor, watermellon and grape soda.

[–]x21in2010x 0 points1 point ago

Like cookies. And it lasts strongly for about 3 weeks. NEXT QUESTION, INTERNET!

[–]spagnitz 0 points1 point ago

[–]pasteface 0 points1 point ago

[–]Mainecolbs 1 point2 points ago

Like sugar cookies.

[–]falafelsizing 0 points1 point ago

i had one of these in my car in high school, and can confirm that it does indeed smell like sugar cookies.

[–]Alexxandria 0 points1 point ago

Brown sugar.

[–]skoorbevad 0 points1 point ago

Had that in my truck for a while. He kind of smells like vanilla cookies.

[–]umphreak2x2 0 points1 point ago

I'm guessing it smells something like this song.

[–]afeller 1 point2 points ago

Fried chicken. I'm horrible.

[–]clonetrooper250 1 point2 points ago

I can't comprehend why this exists. No offense to Mandela here, I'm just very confused that enough people considered this a good idea for it to be produced.

[–]buterbetterbater 1 point2 points ago

I raise you Martin Loofah King

[–]dacookeymonsta 1 point2 points ago

Well, he doesn't smell like apartheid.

Hey look! it's Morgan Freeman!

[–]loggedintohateyou 1 point2 points ago

I kind of imagine he would smell like gasoline, rubber tires, and burning flesh. Not a great scent..

[–]AlexDeLarge655321 -1 points0 points ago

He smells like an over-rated failure.

[–]why_fist_puppies 7 points8 points ago

I know this is /r/funny and all, but I'd be curious to hear you elaborate.

[–]egon0226 -1 points0 points ago

I have the same one in my car. I don't know whether it's supposed to be a joke, but he smells like vanilla.

[–]Rallerboy888 -1 points0 points ago

The day you can transmit smells via the internet will be a very dangerous day indeed.
