So I'm on campus and I go to the book center to get a bottle of water and while I'm the line, some guy with 2 girls gets behind me

he NOR the cashier.....the smell

I was holding my breath because when someone is stank, and it's in the hot sun, it gets worse

God bless odorless Internet

Do you mean people that are Anti anti-deoderant?


Yeah, I don't know how I feel about this issue. I'm sure the mercury in anti-deoderants is doing something to our bodies that we'll find out later in life.

If you're anti-DEodorant, you're PRO-oderant!


And yeah, there's a guy in my film class.....just, Christ.

GET THE FUNK OUT OF MY FACE....

actually there IS good funk...

NOTHING is worse that getting on a bus that is crowded... you have to stand next to someone that has to hold on to an overhead bar.. and their deoderant/anti-persperant isn't effective at stopping their pit exhaust from filling your nostrils. Gag and sneeze.

I actually had to tell this dude if he could hold on to the pole with his other arm so that I wouldn't get an asthma attack from the smell... he got mad but he was no more offended than I already was. P.U.

MIGUELGOMEZ said:

yeah anti-persperant is one thing (aluminum or something), but not using deodorant on a hot day is just too much. Or if you don't, you best be in the bathroom giving yourself an hourly sponge bath!

I heard Julia Roberts say she doesn't use it, but she has nothing better to do but shower all day long!

MIGUELGOMEZ said:

it's not even about deodorant per se. There are products that are just as good as deodorant

the main issue is... how did these 2 muthafuckas have the audacity to walk around smelling like hot and fresh ass, making us all suffer, and not think twice about it?

Need to sit farrrrr away from me.

Two summers ago, I was in a play with a guy who was enthralled with his own stench. Actually told another cast member (who suggested he might want to improve his hygiene) that he thought it was amazing that his body could make that smell.

Everyone was freaking out about this guy's stink becoming news once the play opened. (He had scenes in which he went out into the audience.) But our wardrobe mistress (God love her) made sure this guy had a fresh shirt to wear for every performance - and told him he needed to wear a clean t-shirt underneath so the shirt could be used again. It helped a lot.

The guy was an absolute loon (and not just because of that). To my knowledge, he's never been cast by that company again - nor will he be.

I dealt with something like that too. When I worked at Six Flags, I had co-workers who were from another country (I think Bulgaria) and they all refused to wear some some kind of deodorant..... even some customers made remarks

In the 80's my mom had an aerobics class and Nick Nolte was in it. But she said he stank and looked horrible. It turned out he was preparing for his role as a homeless man in Down & Out In Beverly Hills, and hadn't showered for weeks.

That's fine for your roles, but not fine for your aerobic-mates! And if you want to prepare that accurately, do some research. I doubt many homeless folk have gym memberships!

NDRU said:

I would've been like "Mr. Nolte, WASH YO NASTY ASS!"

Always thought that movie stank

bboy87 said:

seriously, a "regular" person would have been spoken to

PANDURITO said:

now you know why

paintedlady said:

Precisely why I hate public transportation.

Would your sensitive nostrils be as offended if it was Halle Berry???? You know she didn't bathe her stank ass for a MONTH while preparing to play a crack head in Jungle Fever. As a woman, I couldn't even imagine that shit. I don't know how soldiers do it.

SCNDLS said:

stink is stink, but somehow a man seems capable of greater offense

SCNDLS said:

YUCK! A whole month!?! Her pits musta stank like hot garbage in the summer sun never mind her ass!

Y'know...these actors who think you have to be dirty to play dirty make me

Genesia said:

as Lawrence Olivier said: "why don't you try acting?"

paintedlady said:

She didn't brush her teeth either. I'm sorry but anytime I see her all dolled up on the red carpet all I see is stank ass, yuck mouth Vivian from Jungle Fever.

Genesia said:

Fuck that method shit.

one of the worst smells in the world is bad body odor!!!!!

NDRU said:

I dunno! I can't begin to imagine what 30 day old fish smells like.

SCNDLS said:

NDRU must have never been around a female crackhead who didn't wash... sorry women are more capable of smelling worse. Men just smell like methane after a while.

My favorite is jail smell and crack breath. I have to deal with that everyday.

I don't use deodorant. But I use anti-perspirant.
