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?

Dirt WomanMost people at my college are self-respecting and hygienic young adults (after all, it's hard to get laid when you smell of dead animals), but there are several (also self-respecting and hygienic) middle-aged and older people who attend. This is fine; they actually read the material and distract the teacher in class so he doesn't call on the rest of us. But there is one in particular...
She is a fat woman with an extremely choppy mullet and a huge overcoat--she looks like a bag lady. I was first alerted to her presence when she entered the library room I was in... She stunk of dirt! Not body odor, DIRT like she had been rolling in fresh compost. It filled up the entire room.
I later enrolled in a English class that contained her. After a two hour class of the horrible earthy stink combined with her hogging the teacher, blabbing away, I quit.
