Mothballs, old balls, and old mothballs.

It's actually just an empty tin.

But! If you say that it is incapable of producing a flame or aroma, you get yelled at for two weeks. Then they agree with you. Then they give you another empty tin and expect you to be happy about it

VOLITION [Trivial - Success] - Don't think about it. This man will never come anywhere near you. This supposedly man-scented candle will never come near you. Exploring this line of thought would not answer any interesting questions. Exploring this line of thought would definitely not make your life better in any way. In fact, it'd probably make it slightly worse, if anything.
