Stinky
What is with the obsession females have with bathing in their perfume? A girl at the table across from me seems to have marinated in her perfume for a full 24 hours before coming to school. She looks to be about 17 or so, and every time she moves, I get a fresh wave of her strong, not all that cheap perfume.
Himself and I had been talking about smelly people when we went to Poland (the people there are pretty nice about the whole perfume thing. They don't bathe in it), and although we were on the same side of the debate (great, the girl just moved closer to me), we playfully argued it for several blocks
Unfortunately, nothing can be said to the smelly people about how strong they stink. They only get offended and spray on more perfume. I know they only put more on because they can't smell it anymore, so they think no one else can, but still! Ask someone before layering on the scents!
Mom has a pet peeve (well, she has several, but this one is one of the biggest) with people who don't wash their hands, my biggest one (other than people chickening out from great opportunities because they're scared) is heavy perfume. Men are guilty too! Big Green Friend sometimes has to ask me if his cologne is too strong (usually after I have coughed up my lung and presented it to him), and I had a teacher in high school that I could smell for three days or so after he's been in a room! I know that most of the people who lather on the perfume or cologne are smokers, and they're trying to cover up the smell of the cigarette smoke, but what they don't realize is that they're not covering up the smell, they're only mixing cigarette smoke with perfume. It smells so bad!
More later. I have to get out of here before I start flopping on the ground like a fish out of water for want of air.

Oooh, stinky people! I actually had to be moved to a different location in a restaurant due to young males having doused themselves thoroughly in some stinky young-male body spray. My asthma got so bad, I thought I'd never breathe again.
Remember, people, your perfume should whisper and wait to be discovered. In no way should it announce itself.
I will climb off my soap box now and retreat to my own blog...
