I thought the no soap and shampoo thread was kinda strange but at least those people washed themselves. Now we got guys in here saying they dont need to shower for consecutive days?? For fucks sake, it takes no longer than 5 min to rinse yourself off even if you hate cleaning yourself. Forever alone suddenly makes sense.

Ass/armpits/feet/crotch takes like two minutes total.

Oh, just stuff that you brought up. Way to prove full your retard status once again.
What did I brag about? You're the one talking about how white women love your skin and hair.

Before you go around calling people retards try and make your post coherent.

Brag was a terrible choice of words on my part, and I can't help it if white women love me. Neither my use of the term "brag" nor white women have anything to do with the point I was making, but way to only respond to that sentence like a witless buffoon. You've yet to address a single point that I've made, because you have nothing of intelligence or merit to say. Hence your full retard status. Bye bye.

Deodorant barely even works in the first place. Anything that you could even conceivably think of, I've tried. Not showering barely makes a difference until it gets to 3 days.

I'm just lucky that I'm so damn sexy that my smell hardly matters.


Everyone ... we found that guy.

That guy that stinks out our buses, stinks out our classrooms, stinks out our offices, stinks out our cars, our bars, our houses, our rooms ... anywhere they corrupt with their presence.

That guy that through some broken logic, arrogance and delusions accepts his stink and forces his friends, his co-workers and loved ones to suffer from it. Never once caring about his daily assault on their comfort.

That guy is a terrible person.
 
To smell BO I usually have to be near them.

When I worked at this grocery store this guy made whole front of the store smell. I think it was a cultural thing with him. That shit was crazy potent and smelled nothing like typical BO.
 
Luke hater?
He did have the superior name, I mean how can you not like Luke Duke?



I always get mad when I read how many Dodge Chargers they ruined in that series.

My BO smells fucking terrible, but there's nothing I can do about it. Finally I said "fuck it" and now I only shower every 2-3 days. My BO isn't any worse after 2 days than it is after 4 hours. I was born with overactive apocrine glands, deal with it.

Also, when my sweat mixes with certain synthetic fabrics it smells way worse.
It's not all about sweat. Unless you have a bidet you got shit residue building up on your ass.
 
when I go to the gym, there's always this fat dude that comes in and stinks up the whole dressing room. This is before he even started working out. The thought of it alone makes me barf inside my face. Can't imagine the people that are around him the whole day...
 
I was told by a girl that I smelt nice on the bus once. True story.


For the past two years now I shave off most of the hair under my pits, that stinky stuff just wouldn't smell good. I'm much fresher now.

There is one guy in the gym that really really honks. He looks clean enough, maybe it is the toxins in his system. He does a lot of cardio and is a little over weight, but jesus christos...
 
Some people just have issues even with washing and exercising/sweating regularly. This will help a ton if thats you (also good if you dont have a BO problem).

Slightly off-topic:

Does anyone know which brick & mortar store I can find this deodorant at?

Or if you know of any other aluminum free deodorant brand I can easily find, that'll work too.

Speed Stick is deodorant, not anti-perspirant, I use it and smell fresh all day. I know it works because if I forget I start to stink by noon. Aluminum free, I like the musk flavor. Like 2-3 bucks at walmart.

You didn't make any point, it's exactly like the other thread about lulzsec, you're just calling other people stupid or retard while the only retard here is you.
 
Frankly, I think it's tasteless to complain about other people's BO in public if you don't at least attempt to do something about it first (as in point it out to the person in private). If you're going to be indignant about it, have the guts to tell them.
 
Bad breathe is what bothers me. I was speaking to my manager a few days ago and I literally almost passed out. My head got dizzy from the fumes spewing out of her mouth.

I said it to a guy in secondary school once and he freaked out. We ended up wrestling on the floor for about ten minutes.

EDIT: I just remembered, he had me in a head lock for a while right next to the stink! O_o

same thing with heavy smokers that reek of smoke everywhere they go. Half no longer notice, and the other half don't care

I used to smoke. No smoker notices the smell. When you smoke, you don't notice the smell of other smokers either.
 
eastern europeans really are the worst about this. I shared a train with two serbians on the trans-siberian railroad, and the older guy smelled soooo bad.

Also people in turkey smell terrible. And the put there arms up in the subway, etc just like that. man they must not smell it. its so bad.
 
i use this:
411ut%2BNCC4L._SL500_AA300_PIbundle-4,TopRight,0,0_AA300_SH20_.jpg


plus some nice cologne.



most scented deodorant is over powering and cheap smelling. same goes for bodywash. mixing scents like using a bodywash, then scented deodorant and maybe even cologne on top is just as offensive as the assholes that dont know of to clean themselves.


i've worked with a number of awful smelling people. recently an employee that smells like hot dumpster gave a sample sized deodorant to another employee that stinks like moldy jock strap jokingly saying that it was a gift. all i could do was shake my head and think what the fuck. i hate stinky people, learn to fucking wash yourself.

I started using Mitchum brand stuff because it makes me think of Robert Mitchum and he was cool so I feel cool when I use it
 
Someone caught me backstage and said, guess what? I'm a Mexican and I don't stink. And I felt so bad...I tried to explain to her...you can't smell yourself...
 
AVclub said:
I made a pact with myself that I would speak up if someone stinks regularly around me, but at the moment the worst offender is a pregnant French lady. She smelled of BO on hot summer days before, but now that she's only a couple of month away from giving birth, it's even worse. I just can't bring myself to say anything though. Once you take that step, I think it changes your relationship with that person forever.

Pregnancy changes body smell due to the change in body chemistry. Heat, with the additional weight she's carrying, means she's going to sweat more and at lower temps. There's really nothing she can do about it and it's just going to cause drama, so in this case it's best to just wait it out.
 
I have noticed that some people in other counties (and GAF members) don't seem to use deodorant. I don't know if that is because of economic of social reasons, but on a hot day it becomes pretty obvious who is using it and who isn't.

Some people are just retarded or lazy as well. I have a cousin who lives in the UK and instead of using deodorant he just used to spray some cologne onto his armpits. Not only does it not work, but the combination would become rank during the summer. Thankfully me and my friends made him feel bad enough about himself that he still uses deodorant to this day!
 
at the same time too many guys dont understand that all the musk,perfumes,various smelly deoderants fucking stink as well.

Actually, some of us do. I smoke Camels, my dad used to smoke Dorals (he also smoked Winstons). Those Dorals stunk like burning insulation and I would've given up smoking rather than bum one off him. I could smell which cigs were cheapest at the store from the smoke of those things clinging to him and his clothes.

Or they fucking mix them, which is probably the worst idea ever. If you have a strong smelling deodorant on already, don't dump musk on top, it's just going to undo all the work you put in trying to not make yourself smell like ass.

I usually don't mind cologne or perfume unless you take a bath in it.

The problem lies in idiots like my cousin who think that it can replace deodorant. It doesn't! And the combo of BO and cologne is much worse somehow than just BO alone.

Generally speaking though, I bet you didn't notice the smell of nicotine on people when out somewhere, right?

If you had been smoking yourself I mean. If you haven't had a cigarette yourself, you tend to smell it then.
 
I ask myself the same question about one of my roommates. His room STINKS. FUCKING STINKS. It's 100 degrees in there and smells horrible. When he opens the door, like for the 10 minutes a day that he opens it, the stink just wafts into the hallway. I do not know how he goes from fresh air outside, to fresh air in the kitchen, to then the dank stink pit that his room is in the house and not do anything about it.

If he opened the door and the window... it wouldn't smell anymore. He keeps the window closed and the door closed and it just permeates his stink.

He's generally a clean guy, body wise, these days which is good. But he used to smell horrible... The only one of our friends who didn't put two and two together that he stinks.

But a lot of people just cant tell when it's on them.

This is my shit:

^ I love this soap

^ I've always been against smelly deoderants/anti-persperants, but Old Spice gel stuff is one of the few deoderants that keeps my arms dry, which is important for me. And I love how the old spice classic stick (not high endurance) makes my arms feel like I put vick's vaporub on them. My GF and last GF and any girl that I've hooked up with in the last 2 years likes the smell.

I rarely wear cologne... takes me a year+ to go through this ^

Yeah, I can generally tell if someone is or has been around a smoker recently or not. I can even ID the type if it was a Camel, Doral (seriously fuck this brand), cigar, or pipe even if I had been smoking myself a few minutes before. I know most smokers can't however, and I can't ID some brands (like Winston vs. Marlboro, both smell exactly alike to me). Of course location matters, a room full of smoke and everything smells the same, but in a fairly ventilated area with no other mitigating factors or strong smells, I can tell.

Are Amish people allowed to use deodorant? I live in northern Indiana near one of the largest concentrations of Amish in the country, and I frequently notice body odor on some of them out in public.

Ha, that's where I lived too until a few years ago. I used to work at a Meijer in Elkhart County and they'd come in by the buggy-load in their layers of heavy wool garments, noxious stank in tow. Men and women, made no difference.

That whole area around Middlebury/Shipshewana is like stepping into the dark ages. Their entire economy is wicker and baked goods. And you know what? None of them are going to read this, so I can go ahead and say it; fuck the Amish. Get with the program already, in all likelihood God wants you to stop stinking just as much as the rest of us.

Anyways, because deodorant uses modern-day chemicals and alcohol, it's forbidden. Their soap is also homemade, so they're washing at 16th century levels of hygiene; rendered fat, ash and very few fragrances to speak of. No running water means they also bathe in the same water, so we're talking about everyone in the family hoping into a big bowl of tepid filth soup.
 
ABout the Amish -- I was on vaca in DC last week at the SMithsonian Zoo, walking through an indoor exhibit and we got "hit" with an overwhelming BO smell, so rancid we had to leave. It was from a group of some 20 Amish. It was aweful.

People who smell of body spray are worse. Sometimes you can almost taste the spray in your mouth as they have emptied so much on themselves, and if you lit a match you and them would probably go up on flames.

Even the most obnoxious and oppressive concoction of Axe that teens drench themselves in is better than BO.
 
I once had the pleasure of informing a guy who worked under me that he needed to stop coming to work smelling like a dead skunk or he would be fired.

I was 17. He was in his mid-40s. Yeahhhhhhh that was a fun talk

Nah, I don't smell unless you're inside my personal bubble, or it's been more than 2 days(in which case I'm not leaving the house without showering). Used to be a worse right after puberty when I had a huge sweating problem. It's impossible for me not to smell AT ALL though.

This shit doesn't work that well, and is a huge ripoff. It's supposedly "active" ingredient is chlorophyllin, which you can find in other MUCH cheaper products. Here ya go:

You could also just eat more green vegetable stuff, use wheatgrass in cooking or in supplement form, and take apple cider vinegar.
