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?

Sweat the bedA relative of mine is the only obese speed-freak that I know of. The combination of amphetamines and carrying his excess baggage leads to him perspiring in vast quantities, he is even known as “sweaty”, to some people.
After his long weekend binges, he would return home to his parents’ house in the same clothes that he was wearing when he left on Thursday, then jump into bed, fully clothed, under a thick duvet, and sleep for two days.
His parents eventually had to dispose of his sweat-sodden mattress, buy a new one, and fit it with waterproof covers.
