People with bad personal hygene...

[JHowse]

Ever know some of these people?

There was one lady in my handbell choir. Ewwwww...she never showered...ever! She smelled so horrible. I could smell her stench about 3 positions down....smelled like someone had wet their pants and never changed for a week. http://www.aliensoup.com/ubb/smilies/hurl.gif

Anyone else know of people who don't shower or bathe?

I mean nothing personal against these people, but it does smell awful...

Well, not quite sure, so I guess I'll say yes. There's this kid in my Spanish class (that OF COURSE sits right in front of me) that has MASSIVE amounts of dandruff. We're talking, MASSIVE. Looks like he's been having stress for years...

I remember once in the grocery store, coming around the aisle and being confonted with this horrid odor. And kids being kids...well, Nap was in the basket in the cart and asked me why the man smelled so bad. I didn't have a really good answer. *shrug*

Bad personal hygeine is really bad when it's your spouse!! EEEWWWWWWW

That supermarket story reminds me of something that happened this summer...though unfortunately, I was on the flip side of it...

One night this summer, my little pup, Remy, decided to go sniffing the butt of another dog. A little black "dog" with a white stripe running down its back and tail. Needless to say, this "dog" (which was really a skunk, if you haven't figured it out by now) sprayed her in the face, and she came into the house, with a patethic look on her face, and the pungent odor of what I can only describe as a cross between rotten onions and kerosene.

Our little beach house quickly picked up the stench of my now-yellow dog, and apparently, so did everything in it. About an hour after the incident however, I must've completely habituated to the smell of skunk, because I didnt smell anything anymore, and assumed the smell has dissipated. I had a friend coming to spend the night out at the beach with me that night, and I had yet to go pick up a movie and get some snacks for the occasion.

I hopped in my car, and made my first stop: Blockbuster:

As I walked through the aisles, the staff all looked very very pensive...as if they were all simultaneously trying to figure out the mysterious source of *something*. I dismissed it, and went merrily on my way down the new-release aisle. The next thing I know, an employee whips out the vaccuum cleaner, and begins vacuuming aimlesly, yet frantically, around the store.

I finally smelled myself enough to determine that *I* was the cause of their confusion. I stunk like, well, rotten onions and kerosene (not at all the same "skunk" smell you catch whiffs of while driving.) I quickly went to the checkout, and before the girl working there could say anything, I put the tapes on the counter and said "I apologize for the way I smell, my dog just got sprayed by a skunk." She replied "IT'S YOU!", and signaled her co-worker to stop vaccuuming. To make a longer story short(er), they were none too thrilled that they, being Blockbuster employees, were committed to be trapped in their now-stinking building until midnight. I left that place as quickly as I possibly could, and hopped into my car, which I now realized, stunk FAR worse than the clean air outside.

One more stop to make though -- I had to go to the grocery store. I wasn't too worried though... I figured the huge spacious aisles, and big surface area of the place would be enough to shield me. I quickly grabbed a bag of doritos, and then remembered that my friend loves ice cream. To get there, I took a short cut by walking across the meat section. This is what I find most humorous (in retrospect) of all. As I passed one woman in the meat aisle, she picked up the package of meat she was holding, and actually started sniffing the meat! She had the most confused look on her face, as if she couldn't figure out what caused a package of meat that was perfectly fresh a second ago, suddenly turn rancid. After looking back over my shoulder, she was still smelling the meat. Confused, she put it down and quickly walked away.

How nice it is to be posting in this forum, with *me* being the stinky culprit. Yuck! http://www.aliensoup.com/ubb/smilies/smile.gif

KNS, I'm crying with laughter from that story. http://www.aliensoup.com/ubb/smilies/lol.gifhttp://www.aliensoup.com/ubb/smilies/bawling.gifhttp://www.aliensoup.com/ubb/smilies/lol.gifhttp://www.aliensoup.com/ubb/smilies/rotflmao.gif

This isn't personal hygeine related, but it does do with stinkiness. One night, my mother and I went out to a movie, in town. We lived out in the country side, and where we lived at the time could get really foggy at night. So on our way home, we could barely see. We were driving very slowly. We saw these glowing things in the distance, and suddenly we happened on not one, not two, but a whole family of skunks. It was too late to swerve, so each tire hit a skunk. I remember the thump one of them made against the running board on the side of the van. Needless to say, we had to park the van down wind from the house for the next week and a half.
