Hm... I wonder if Walmart still has watermelon scented candles. "But dad, it smells just like summer!"

Oh my gosh I had those! They did actually smell good with a quick sniff, but I hated them so much I threw out the rest.

Yeah my wife loved the smell in the aisle, but it got old really fast at home lol

As a bonus, with those cheap candles there's a decent chance burning them fills his house with toxicity.

Just like him!
