Today, I was doing something in room A. A lady we know comes into room B and I can smell her scent (perfume) from all across the room! I mean for being smelly, I’m one to talk but let me tell you that it is not right to be able to smell somebody from across the room. I mean I thought the point of perfume was when somebody’s walking by, they think, “hmm, a distinct banana smell, delicious! I’d like to get to know her better.” Not, “Hit the floor! I smell Miss Sprig (no offense to anybody named Sprig. I’m just coming up with a name at random) across the city! ” You shouldn’t be able to smell somebody without seeing them first. (unless you are blindfolded and the perfumed person is sneaking up on you)
Of course, I wouldn’t know any of this.
I hear you. people are so inconsiderate-I’ve lost about half my sense of smell over the years so things have to be really strong for me to notice-I was in my kitchen t’other day, smelt a really rank scent-followed my nose to my potato bin, and sure enuf, there was a fat lady crouched down behind there munching my spuds, wearing too much perfume-so i shooed her out with the broom and opened the windows to air the place out…
