Things that smell REALLY bad

[gracie1]

I was born in Decatur, IL. home to ADM. Once you smell soy beans being processed, you will never forget it! I am cursed with a sensitive nose and many things bother me that DH never even notices. Smokers' clothing in the grocery store gets me all the time. Blech!

The smell of soy beans being processed makes me gag! So gross - and you really can't explain the smell

Hopefully not a Bio Digestor because one is coming to our area soon! sigh..

The cloakroom by my class in winter...lots of wet stenchy boots.

Our cat's rear end after she's done with her business in the litter box, rotten potatoes, spilled beer(or anything alcoholic but beer is the worst)

Darn, you beat me to it.

I was really surprised to see other people mention durian! I would love to taste it, but I can't get it past my nose.

I wouldn't have been surprised. It's one of those things that's notorious around the world.

Limburger cheese IS as bad as its reputation for resembling body odor and smelly feet...

Public service announcement: Remember to take raw chicken from the supermarket inside during a heat wave. Don't leave it in the car overnight. Trust me.

Oh Gd, yes! I had the misfortune of having to smell that gawdawful smell once. Dh's mother had left raw chicken in the car, didn't realize it, and the stench kept growing and growing for days until it was finally located under a seat. Ugh, just the thought turns my stomach.[/QUOTE]


DH spilled a gallon of milk in the back of my SUV, in Vegas, in the summer, and "cleaned" it up. The next time I got in the car, I got sick. Three days. I had to have the carpeting and pads replaced.

DH also left the trash in the same SUV. He put the trash in to take up to the dumpster (we lived in an apartment and the dumpster was a very long way from the house) and forgot. I went out the next morning, drove to work, and there was a faint odor, but not too bad. When I came back out 12 hours later, it was horrible.


Paper mills. They are nasty.

I live in Springfield, and go to Decatur sometimes. If you have never smelled the processing of soy beans, you can't appreciate the smell. At one time we knew a man whose wife made him change jobs due to the smell.

Oh yes, I know the city and the smell. It is absolutely dreadful. It is like an unrelenting funk that haunts you and follows you all over the area

Along these lines, dog butt gland expression. Once was taking a dog somewhere, and was in the backseat when the dog jumped on my lap and "expressed" himself. holy horrors is all I can say.

Middle school boys and AXE body spray bad combo. OMG

I banned Axe from the boy child. That stuff makes me gag. He can use soap and deodorant, and not worry about covering it up with that crud.


DD2 had a pair of water shoes that stunk so bad after one use----just once----that when we left them on the back porch, something or someone dragged them off. Never did discover what happened to them...

We made up a word for that many years ago : "spoodle". We used to use it frequently, as our female Beagle (RIP) would always spoodle on everything.

My stinky additions to the thread are : turnip greens & tartar sauce that has been left on a plate overnight.

I can add a smell that may top all others...

I was lucky enough to witness the birth of 6 kittens on 2/19. Momma is a stray we took in 4 weeks before. Anyway, the birth was so exciting and nerve-wracking because I've never dealt with that before. Thankfully, Momma is a great mom and did and continues to do everything she's supposed to.

Anyway, back to the smell...momma kitties traditionally eat the placentas when they give birth...so our Momma ate 6 on Thursday. Let's just say...post-placenta poop is nightmare inducing. We have a 3,000 sq ft house and it permeated the whole thing in minutes.

A crematorium. The funeral home I worked at was the regional service centre for a small chain. Our retort was in use basically 24/7. As an intern I spent lots of shifts in the parking lot directing traffic for services. Standing out there by the hour and "knowing' what the smell was truly almost drove me mad. (For the record, any of you could probably smell the same thing in passing, not realizing what it was, and not be too offended by it.)

Cooked chicken leftovers. It makes me want to hurl.
