Need Help From Freeper Females (vanity)

Some of the guys and I are presently at the camping lodge and we’ve got a problem that requires the help of a sensible woman. My brother-in-law managed to get something in his hair this morning, and he wanted to wash it out. I can’t tell you what that something was, because he’s refused to divulge that to us thus far (I suspect that he fabricated the “tainted hair” theory to save himself some embarrassment.)

My brother-in-law believes that his wife has, at some point, told him that peanut butter is a useful household hair cleaner / conditioner. His wife animately denied ever saying anything about peanut butter, and thinks that he must have confused it with mayonnaise. Anyway, this guy has gone from a docile gentlemen to a ranting idiot and he’s now in a state of full blown panic.

Please provide us with any suggestions that you may have for removing peanut butter from hair. If possible, we’d like to know of any “home remedies” that may work – we’re in a fairly remote location and nobody is willing to go to the store. Besides looking ridiculous, he smells horrible. Here’s what we’ve tried so far:

A) Tried to “melt” it away by pouring very hot water over his head. This basically resulted in mild burns to his neck and scalp.
B) Made a makeshift shower cap out of a Wal-Mart bag, taped it around his head to make it watertight, and poured beer in a small hole at the top. He let it soak for about an hour to no avail.

Anything that you can suggest would be most appreciated.

Thanks for the tips.

Actually it was an ode to Demetrius Slaughter,
A prig of a scammer with tales of a faux-daughter,
From a thread that devolved in a similar vein,
Perhaps Cajungirl would be glad to explain?
It started at #13 with a critique,
Until busted at 717, a CGEB!
DS was gone, off to look at the sun,
While debate continued on how to cover one's buns
Its all over now, but just to be fair,
Some might not get it, ya just had to be there:

Come on, someone has got to be willing to take one for the team. As a guy I recognize this as a great opportunity to be the hero. I'm assuming that since you're camping that shows you have at least a little bit of a sense of adventure.

Ugh! Post 561 was supposed to be a reply to 488, which was responding to 438, which was a reference to...

Its all so confusing...

[BSunday]

Wait a minute - you guys have the internet where you are camping ?? Wusses.

[Jaysun]

I love it. Are you serious? Try the dishwashing liquid. It that doesn't work, shave his head.

Thanks for the tip, but we've already managed to cure him. Go to post # 463 to see what happened.

OK, I want to see the pictures. This can't be real.

It's more of a hunting lodge than a campsite. We have everything we need out here - including a computer.

Bookmark for sharing with construction company full of hunters/outdoorsman. Half of our crew is off for turkey hunting right now. Hope you guys have a great time. Thanks for the thread.

Thanks.

He has my sympathy but at least it didn't turn out as badly as a Canadian trip I heard about some years ago.

Some city boys went on a fishing trip and were dropped off at a lake cabin by a amphibious plane. They managed to burn the cabin down the first night. Some of the guys died of exposure by the time the plane picked them up a couple of weeks later.

LOL! Oh you have to ping me for the pictures, lmao, no more drooling is a good sign. ;)

This is the funniest thread I have ever read on FR!!! This is right up there with "What Kind of Snake Is This??" and the stick drawings of the boxing match.

Yes. What we did was get together, buy the land, and fence it off. We started stocking it with various game a few years ago. My wife's from Germany, and I liked the look of the buildings in Bavaria. So, we made it like a Bavarian lodge out in the country. We come out here quite often. It's sort of like a second home.

OK. I'll put you on the ping list.

"We have everything we need out here - including a computer."

Except shampoo :D

[Mjaye]

Peanut butter or vegetable oil works to remove unknown gunky substances from hair, I've used both on my kids many years ago. The real question is what did he get into and how? This could be a blockbuster movie: grown men go camping and get into trouble...oh, yeah, I guess it's been done.

LOL! Oh you have to ping me for the pictures, lmao, no more drooling is a good sign. ;)

A good sign indeed - we were worried that he could become dehydrated. I added you to the ping list.
