Personal HygieneThere comes a point at which your hygiene becomes less your problem and more everyone else's:
My old school nurse never seemed to wash - instead she wrapped herself in crepe bandages from the first aid kits. The smell was beyond pungent. If you got ill at school, it was better to suffer than try and explain symptoms whilst only breathing out.
When she was eventually 'let go',they had to strip the wallpaper in her office to get rid of the lingering odour.
How scuzzy have you got? Or, failing that, how bad have people you know got?

Ah yes I actually have dozens of theseI used to be out and about on the free festival circuit in the late 80s and one of my compadres actually developed trench foot from not taking his socks or boots off for three months.
My brother tells the tale of legendary Manchester squatter Carlos, whom he once witnessed gagging on his Special Brew and spewing onto the grassy mound on which he was sitting. He then scooped a handful of muddy vomit up and then ate it, stating 'I'm not wasting that, I've just eaten'. Not really personal hygiene but ewwwww...
