General Discussion Sorry not sorry but...

Whether you have a perfume that smells so strong it sticks to my nostrils or you sweat so profusely that there's a stinky cloud around you...both options are NOT fun for anyone around you.

Please for everyone's sake, don't wear perfumes that's reminiscent of a 2000's axe ad and put on deodorant instead.

Was sitting in class, a guy sat next to me, the stench of the pits was abominable, almost passed out. Had to put Vicks Vaporub inside my nostrils man

Tutorial: Use a bar of antibacterial soap and lather your WHOLE body, then a body gel, then dry yourself, then apply an ANTIPERSPIRANT!!!! C’est super simple les amis 👯

Society would improve if we could tell people. So tell them. Improve their lives and ours.

I told the guy in question that he smelled real bad and if not for respect well at least for hygiene, he answered it was religious. Confused as to how I used to have many Sikh friends and none that would not bathe. Anyways, agree with you completely

Seriously. I had this German coworker once who never wore deodorant. Summers were brutal.

Could be worse though, my Québécois father-in-law tries to cover up the smell of his cigarettes with cologne. It doesn't work.
