When I first saw this ad, I thought that the concept of laundry was completely foreign to this woman and that she was legitimately confused when it was suggested to her that she might be able to do something with a dirty, smelly shirt other than just toss it away; you know, like actually clean it.
Then I realized that no, it's not that she doesn't do laundry and just chucks away her clothes after wearing them once- it's that the particular shirt she's going on about is so old that it's clinging to odors. First, is this a thing? Do clothes actually become resistant to cleaning as they get older? I've never heard of such a phenomenon. Second, if it's not a thing, what on Earth is the owner of that shirt doing to make it so damned smelly that repeated cycles through the washing machine won't get the odors out? I'm legitimately curious. I don't think she'd be wearing that shirt while gardening or jogging or doing anything else that might cause it to smell particularly bad. What is the deal?
As for the Backstreet Boys- well, to each her own, I guess.
The damn thing blights my screen too.
