Pit stains
Look at me. What a piece of filth.
"Gross, it's a Gorby stain!"
"Yes, God gave me this, and he made me bald. WTF?"
From SweatSolutions.org (gotta love the non-profit sweat-related sites):
And if that doesn't work?
I have to make that call. Not because I'm that desperate over pit stains, but because that would be a conversation to record/cherish for a lifetime.

Now, you might ask, "Why don't you throw away your filthy, pit-stainy shirts, Stooks?" They're undershirts, that's why. It's their job to sit there, under my shirt, protecting it from pit stains.
Apparently, I suffer pit stains because I overapply and/or don't let my antiperspirant dry before "donning clothing."

“Just rinse the affected area of the garment with cold water before you wash it...It’s the acidity of antiperspirants that causes staining. Instead of washing those stains out, warm or hot water can ‘set’ them by causing a chemical reaction that binds the stain to the fabric. Pretreating with a stain remover can make the situation worse."
And if that doesn't work?
Call the toll-free customer service number located on the label of the antiperspirant. The manufacturer may have additional stain removal ideas or may even help you replace the damaged item.

My Old Spice High Endurance stick causes blue pit stains on my undershirts. The stick itself is blue so that is probably why, but blue pit stains look funny.
those might be some of the worst pit stains i've ever seen . . . they're lime green.
i've found that old spice red zone causes the fewest pit stain issues . . . i've had my current t-shirts for a few years and they're still in pretty good shape . . . for a t-shirt.
Geoff: I have some blue pit stains, too.
Kevin: Sorry, but I have to disagree. Old Spice Red Zone is the main culprit for me. I switched deodorants because of it. Maybe your thick forest of pit hair keeps the Old Spice in check.
that's a good possibility, but i think it's also entirely possible that all of the oils that are present in most people's pits are channeled directly to my forehead . . . therefore causing no pit stains for me.
That's a pretty handy feature, Kevin. I know many men who wished they had a glistening forehead. I hear women are attracted by the reflecting light.
