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?

You know those giant lizard things, those Komodo Dragons?They have special cavities in their front teeth which trap bits of meat, which rot and give a 'septic bite'.
They hunt by sneaking a bite of their prey, then tracking it and waiting for it to weaken enough to be caught.
Bear with me!
The dental hygiene of a former relation of mine's was so bad that it brought these ungainly animals to mind.
Her teeth were brown and slimy, even though she didn't smoke, and her breath smelled exactly like rotten meat, all the time, from anywhere within 6 feet or so.
I tried not to upset her - I wasn't risking a septic bite.
