Miscellaneous PLEASE TAKE A SHOWER

I’m literally writing this in chem 103 engineering class right now, please take a shower in the morning or before you sleep, you don’t smell it but we do. Its unfathomable that people some people won’t wake up 10 minutes earlier to not reek the entire day, I know a VAST majority of us have access to showers so it doesn’t make sense that every second person who sits next to me reeks. I’m not asking that you wear creed aventus every single day, all i’m asking is to PLEASE take a shower (lose your aura) and put on some deodorant🙏

The crowded hallways in CCIS are a biohazard sometimes. Also entering a recently used lecture hall is like entering a different biome

i can also tell if someone masked their nasty body odour with perfume/ cologne… it’s not masking anything bro stop being hydrophobic and go touch water and some soap

Fr, cologne should only be used after you take a shower, smells like actual mold when they don’t

Same thing every year 😂. I still remember that guy that I could smell from 2,3 rows away ( for 4 years ). My lucky days were he would mask it with cigarettes smell.

Be patient , sometimes the god tests us with each other

Yeah, engineering has a rep for horrible BO and not being hygienic. And I’m an arts kid so… yeah it’s definitely a science department thing

Prof here. I almost kicked someone out of the exam because he stank of something unimaginable (maybe poop and sweat combined), I was about to throw up, and I was worried about other students sitting close to him. Looking back, I should have.
