On the other hand all Americans have pfas in their blood so maybe it’s overused
in the 80s on every ski trip, my parents would spray me down with scotch guard while i stood there in my cold gear. think of the scene from A Christmas Story with Randy in his overstuffed coat, but then imagine the mom spraying him down with a can of scotch guard. that was me.

does that count as being overused, or just as intended?
