A Treatise on Body Odor

So true, Coco.
So true.
But more to the point, I have a certain obsession with the way people smell.
(Not that way, you sicko.)
Here's the deal. I hate the way many people smell bad. I don't think that it's hard to not really have a discernible odor.
Shower. Wear deodorant. Clean yourself.
It's fairly simple.
This really becomes a problem for me when I have to ride the bus. The bus is bad enough in and of itself, but when coupled with sweaty, smelly people ...
I just can't handle it.
I'm not saying that I always smell like a summer rose, but good gracious I try!
I really, really do.
People of the World - please do your part. Bath your bodies. And if you are feeling particularly generous, maybe dab on some perfume or sweet smelling lotion. It will make the people around you happier.
Special Note - perfume and lotion does not take away odor that is already present. If you don't smell clean before applying cologne you are just adding to the problem.
Every morning, I come in to work and I ask, "Do I smell like dog?" because I'm convinced that the people who smell the worst are the last to know of it. I do not want to be that person.
