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?

stealth hoboa few years back I was sitting on a bench outside the British library with a friend eating a sandwich. We were both eating egg mayo sandwiches and we were positive that they had gone off because they didn't smell right. After much sandwich sniffing and debate (it smells funny but tastes alright etc) I turned around to find a hobo (complete with huge straggly beard, bushy eyebrows and large scruffy coat (they always seem to have a large disgusting overcoat and it always seems to be the same sort of overcoat. Is there a hobo overcoat shop somewhere with a copyright?)). While my friend and I had been sat side by side, the hobo must have shuffled up on our blind side and sat on the bench behind us (stone bench, no back on it) whereby he proceeded to stare at us silently without moving. We immdiately vacated away from his aura and named him stealth hobo. Everytime I smell an egg mayo sandwich...I think of his pungent odours.
