The worst smell....

[Giraffle]

Right now, for me its the smell of the big like...dumpster trash can things you have and take them to the front of your house when the garbage men come? whatever special name they have (or theyre just trash cans) just the smell of opening one of them, if you inhale right when you open it your gonna be struggling for breath

Avoiding some of the obvious choices. Hair gel, aftershave and cigarettes. Someone who uses all 3 is absolutely repulsive to me.

Hmmm... Portapotties are pretty bad. Dead Skunk on a 100°+ day in Georgia are worse... but honestly? The worst thing I have ever smelled is someone who has gone septic, and their flesh is literally rotting while still on their bodies.

It's not 'bad' in an 'everybody immediately projectile-vomits' kind of way, it's 'bad' in a 'this is the scent of absolutely the most despairing, depressing, phenomenally tragic thing you will ever be a party to.'

I still have panic attacks if I smell anything similar.

My farts. Trust me. they can get so bad that your nose would jump off of your face and ***** slap you for subjecting it to such a stench. I've even cleared out an entire 40 person church with a silent one.

Rotting cadavers, as many have said it's indescribable. Nothing can prepare you for the first time you smell it, you could of spent years around an animals corpse it wouldn't make a difference.

My dog's poop. Human poop isn't that bad, but I have a dog that just makes some really bizarrely unpleasant smell. It probably has to do with him being a Shelty and thus having a hairy tail.

As for less obviously gross things, vinegar. I just hate the smell for some reason.

 

[DrDeath3191]

Orange Chicken, especially at Panda Express, I feel the need to vomit at the scent.

Dude, I love that stuff! Delicious!

On topic, probably sulfur.

 

[Mustardcat666]

Ever pee into a campfire? There's a hearty smell for ya.

 

[Agrael]

I have another one, which I remembered.

Try smelling rotten tomatoes. No really, try smelling them - get a proper whiff!

I did. Wasn't worth it.

 

[Beffudled Sheep]

Whatever has been rotting in my basement for the past year is the worst smell in existence. Its impossible to explain using any form of communication. It caused me to stop going down there.

 

[gigastrike]

I'm gonna be uncreative an say sulfur. Incidentally, I got an anti-biotic prescribed recently that smelled exactly like that.

 

[Gaderael]

The smell of a rotted otter's head that had been wading in a lake for at least a few days being boiled to remove it's flesh. My ex was big into animal bones as artwork. The things you do for love...

Latrine burn pits. Anyone who has ever been in the military probably knows what this smells like. Instructions to recreate are as follows:

1. Dig a cesspit.
2. Have people poop in said cesspit until it is full. This can take a while.
3. Pour diesel fuel on top of aforementioned cesspit.
4. Light that mother up. Multiple burnings may be required. Also good for burning paper and rotten food stuffs.

You get the delightful mix of diesel fumes, burning food, burning paper, and the stink of human excrement all wrapped into one.

What you smell like coming home from an all day music festival. Most of that stench is other peoples sweat.

 

[Frankydee]

a dead animal after it's been baking in the hot sun for a few days.

 

[bluepilot]

Definatly definatly wet dog smell

 

[SecretTacoNinja]

Body Odour.

When I smell it on other people it makes me gag. >_<

Washing is important people!

Also those public lavvies that they don't clean regularly but put a few shitty little air fresheners in once in a while.

 

[yum yum]

Worst smell i've ever had was when walking home from WalMart during August in central Arizona I came across a sewer overflow...oh god, it'd been baking in the sun for hours.

Worst smell i've ever had was when walking home from WalMart during August in central Arizona I came across a sewer overflow...oh god, it'd been baking in the sun for hours.

And in the Arizona sun...
Horrific.

 

[Zarthek]

I'm stuck between the odor in the Garbage cans, Vomit, OR wet dog (it itself isn't that bad... it's just how it lingers)
