Yes plenty of times be up and close in an aisle of a store or even have someone sit next to me and the wife at a movie sweaty stinking sweet stench of bad onions and BO .
I used to work in an office with a woman who showered/bathed about once a month. She was an “off-the-boat” immigrant so I think it was culturally related. But OMG! Especially for a WOMAN!!!!! Finally, Human Resources had to step in and say something since there were so many complaints. After that, there was no problem. I am also offended by people who douse themselves heavily in PERFUME. Nothing worse than sitting on a plane and smelling someone’s HEAVY perfume and you cannot get away from them. Additionally, when you are having dinner and you smell a diner near you rather than your FOOD. What are people THINKING???? Ok, rant over.
I think there are some medical conditions like that, so some folks just can’t help it. I remember at my mother’s wake, there was a woman that smelled really bad, and no-one knew who she was. Thankfully, she didn’t stay long…
Ink Pen is right next to The Big Picture in my list, and it shows people might want to be careful about wording and distance when bringing the subject up.
Don’t get me started. At around the time I’d been in WA about two months, hubs and I went to K-Mart (Yes, they have them in Australia, Target too!), and much to my shock, there was a local who was defecating right. In. The. Parking. Lot.
Dear gods, I nearly ran to the K-Mart entrance! We didn’t go there again for a very long time, if at all. I prefer to order online shudder
Then there was the couple having “relations” on a traffic island called by the locals “Skinny Strip”. Urgh.

I bit the bullet and actually told a co-worker she had a b.o. problem. She thanked me and the problem was solved.

I once had a business meeting with several Germans, none of whom used deodorant. They absolutely reeked and we had to deodorize our conference room

Lennie, are you taking a vacation (you deserve it if so) or dropping out?
