Personal HygieneThere comes a point at which your hygiene becomes less your problem and more everyone else's:
My old school nurse never seemed to wash - instead she wrapped herself in crepe bandages from the first aid kits. The smell was beyond pungent. If you got ill at school, it was better to suffer than try and explain symptoms whilst only breathing out.
When she was eventually 'let go',they had to strip the wallpaper in her office to get rid of the lingering odour.
How scuzzy have you got? Or, failing that, how bad have people you know got?

LiftI'm back.
I was in a lift earlier - Now I'm not the most tolerant of people - esepcially those that smell.
So when a guy headed towards the lift, I held it open for him - y'know, I'm polite and all that.
He wanders in - and the smell, like a third person, stepped in with him. He stank of last weeks beer (and all the nights since and before it), cigarette smoke and piss.
Now I can only hold my breath so much (5 seconds it turns out) but he's stood in the middle of the small lift sharing this smell with me.
Goes without saying the lift was on a go-slow.
He gets out and I aubibly started to gag and retch (I'm tactful like that) - I stopped the lift on the next floor and got out as his smell hadn't got off with him.
Ew.
