Wednesday, October 12 - "This Might Stink"

In a poll on hygiene, 90% of people say that they wash their hands and bathe regularly now.

Yeah.

Pandemic, right?

You're supposed to.

That's what you learn when you're growing up.

But according to this, 16% of people don't use deodorant on the reg.

But I have a weird

take on this.

All right, I'm ready.

Because I think that BO is a social construct.

That smell has never bothered me.

Really?

Does not bother me at all.

I think we've just been conditioned to like, oh my God, that smells awful.

I don't think it smells awful.

I will offer this

to your hot take.

Work in the truck driving industry for a little while and have one of the guys come off of the road who hasn't, you know, that's driven from California to Iowa straight through, hasn't showered.

They don't get a chance to.

No, they've been living in their own for quite a while and maybe nose blind to their own scent.

So they come out and they're, that is like you microwave socks and fish together at work.

Oh God, I see that's a bad thought.
