Old [ex!]girlfriend,a couple days each month!

Two guys in a restaurant noticed a gal sitting in a Sharon Stone pose at another table.

"Look at all that hair!"

"Aw, that ain't hair! It's just dirt."

They gave a kid a quarter to "let" his ball roll under her table and get a close look to settle the issue.

"It's hair, ain't it?"

"Naw."

"It's dirt, ain't it?"

"Naw."

"What is it, then?"

"Flies."

Yep, dead humans that have floated for awhile, or fire victims that have burned. You will never forget the smell.

Dead humans stink more than any other life form.

Just out of high school I worked for some folks that helped out the local mortuary every once in awhile. We usually picked up suicides, drownings, etc. Nasty stuff.

left an apartment while moving into a new home. left all my stuff and the landlord promised me he would leave the utilities on since i still had time in the month i'd paid for.

he forgot and had 'em shut it off. my walleye fillets defrosted and turned into what looked like tapioca but was runnier and had more maggots.

august heat, walking into that apartment turned my stomach. so did being on my hands and knees scooping that sludge out of the fridge. damn.

In light of the recent snake threads, I had a 13ft Burmese python that I fed big ol rabbits. About a month or so later the processed bunny would come out and that, friends, is an unbearable stench I've never experienced before. The stomach acids capable of dissolving bones are fierce!!

Got a fiend I went to high school with whose now a mortician. He has a story like that. As I remember about the only time he's ever lost his lunch on the job was going to put her in a bag.

POTUS RANKS HIGH FOR ME
MOST DEAD THINGS ARE TOLERABLE!

Whales rotting on a beach are tops on my list! Guess I haven't "experienced" the dead human yet . . . (there's still time)

LMAO.......that was a good one Ken.

Worst I ever smelled was a gentleman that was found dead in a camper van. He shot himself in the head with a 25 auto (I found the bullet and casing laying on the floor) and had been dead for about a week. I went to help my then FIL who was a part time King county sheriff, remove him from the van after the crime scene inspection was done. When we went to put him in the coroners vehicle, it stunk even worse than the dead guy. The coroner had just finished with dropping off the body of a guy that had drowned in a lake and had been missing for a little over a week. Still remember that foul smell like it was yesterday.

I got a kid at work, 300 lbs that showers once a week if he thinks he needs it or not. Phugin nasty all the time.

I once got to unload a trailer with about 5 pallets of raw chicken that got dropped at a dock door after hours on a Friday. The Thermoking went out sometime between then and Monday at 7:00 AM. This was in July BTW....

I've only had the pleasure of experiencing the scent of floaters, but a big +1

Back when you could find orange juice in glass bottles they made great sealable spit cups. In college lost track of one. Found it about 5 months later under the bed when I was moving. Like any guy, I couldn't throw it out until I at least took a whif! Whoa!!! Close 2nd was burning barrels of crap in Iraq!

Dead sea turtle. Loggerhead. And it went bad in 15 min. Most acrid smell I've ever experienced. It didn't make you nauseous as much as it hurt. Truly assaulting your nose.

We had a suicide that was discovered by the neighbors, after they saw buzzards landing on the roof....

Nothing smells quite so awful as dead people. Unless it's burnt dead people. Floaters are special....

Dude, you should wash your face!

I agree.

Years ago one part of my jobs was picking up / scraping up dead animals. Opossuim were the worst. Rather pick up a smushed skunk than a whole 'Opossuim.
Second to that may be the crap my wife........ Nevermind.

A quart jar of skunk glands left out behind the barn from fall till August. I opened it up and passed out. Spilled the crap all over me! Burnt the clothes and washed with tomatoe juice for hours.
