What an incredible SMELL you've discovered!

[Dave1982]

So, literally, 1 minute before we locked the doors tonight, this guy breezed through the doors and tried to make me into his personal shopper.

He kept coming back to me and asking for "just one more thing" after telling me he was finished.

He did this THREE times.

And he had a very.......unique odor.

At first, it smelled like he'd taken a jumbo size bag of Lay's potato chips, turned the bag inside out, then wiped it all over himself. Not an entirely unpleasant smell, but certainly weird to smell on a person.

But then I realized that every place he'd stopped for more than a couple seconds RETAINED the odor.

And then I noticed the distinct undertones of stale, sour sweat mixed in with the potato chip smell.........



It was so bad that after he left, I retrieved a can of super concentrated vanilla air freshener from the custodian's closet and sprayed it liberally around the areas this guy walked through. That made the place smell like crushed Nilla Wafers, but that was a huge improvement over sweaty potato chips.

Ew. That is disgusting.

No, because it's too obvious.

"Could be worse!"

You are way too nice.

I was in this restaurant in the middle of paris yesterday.

It was 18:30, all tables were crowded and people were waiting outside for a table. What did the staff/owners do? They ate. Everybody at that place had to wait half an hour for them to finish their meal. And not one person complaint about that.

Just as a addition... the food was amazing (I had duck in roquefort sauce), the wine tasted fantastic and the dessert was, and please excuse my choice of words, orgasmic.

You know, I think this stinker's wife came in today. Same age, same ethnicity, and the SAME FUCKING SMELL!!!!!!!! I asked her if she needed help, only to be bombarded with the smell of rancid potato chip oil.

That might be greasy hair you're smelling... I had a friend in highschool who decided not to wash his hair for a month because he thought he could dread his hair that way. Anyway, he said it smelled like popcorn butter and no matter how many times he washed it after that it, it still smelled like popcorn butter. He ended up shaving his head to get rid of the odor.

[Dave1982]

Perhaps, though that doesn't make the smell more pleasant.

Ok, now, not to be mean or anything... but I got you beat as to the smell, Dave.

This guy I work with, I'll call him B, has a medical condition, which, unfortunately, is rather, um, shall we say potent.

Take the smell of fermenting vegetation, stale corn chips and the faintest whiff of ummm... male musk and that's him. And what's worse, the stench STICKS to everything. Fabric, cardboard, paper, wood... METAL, you name it, it sticks. I have trained my nose to ignore it, so it no longer bothers me - much - but i still haven't the courage to ask him if he uses an antibacterial soap, since my brother has the same problem (and smells worse when unshowered), since i think he'll get offended.

Hmmm, I'm trying to imagine those completely unique smells; then again maybe I don't want to!

I worked with a guy, horrible body odor. It was...BO and more, just a hint of something I couldn't put my finger on, maybe dead dog. He left a cloud everywhere he went, and if he sat in an office chair, the chair smelled like him for the rest of the night. You could not go anywhere near his personal space without having to hold your breath. And regardless of the coworker's and customer's complaints, he never did anything about his odor. Luckily, he was fired for something unrelated several months later.

I would have felt bad for anyone becoming his girlfriend/wife...and imagine what his house must have smelled like!

Sometimes it's hard to get stuff out of your hair. I had to wash my hair 3 times the morning after prom to get all of the hairspray out and even THAT didn't work(never used my mom's friend to style my hair ever again)! If your friend was still having this problem, I would recommend pure castile soap. It gets the job done(and the cult propaganda is a great read if you decide to buy Dr. Bronner's brand).

I wonder why it smelled of popcorn butter? That would make me so sick.

[Dave1982]

MAN! The fun just doesn't stop! Had yet another smelly SC today, and this time is was sweaty french fries.

[bookishfreak]

How about old ciggarette, stale dirt, and BO...all mixed together....yum!

Wow...I always thought overly greasy hair smelled like kind of like moldy shoe farts.

I work with a guy whose hair is so greasy that it looks like a Ken doll's hair. The Ken dolls that don't have the "real" hair......it's so plastic and shiny looking. Not a good shiny, either. So shiny it looks wet. It's gross.

And he smells of moldy shoe farts.
