Today, despite using deodorant religiously and showering twice a day, my roommate still smells so bad that every time she enters the room I become physically sick. FML

Today, it's so insanely hot that no matter how often I shower or use deodorant the smell of my armpits makes me feel physically sick. FML

Stinky

Today, I realized that my flatmate showers so little that the furniture she uses smells like BO. FML

Today, my mom yelled at me because even though I shower thoroughly twice a day, I still stink. My mom showers once a week, never wears deodorant, and smells like roses. FML

BO issues

Today, my girlfriend showered ten times, used an entire tube of deodorant, and continued to stink. It’s been like this for the past week, despite it being cold outside. FML

Today, like every day she works, my roommate once again put on a ton on perfume before work because she doesn't shower. She's gone, but this smell will be here for hours. FML

Genius

Today, my roommate found a solution to his awful body odor: bathing in vinegar. Now instead of smelling like a middle school locker room, the house smells like a chemical plant. I'm not sure which is worse. FML

Today, my natural body odor has gotten so bad that despite wearing 20 swipes of men’s deodorant under each armpit and taking three showers a day with an entire bottle of body wash, I still smell like a cross between onions and hot garbage. I’m a woman. FML

Today, multiple customers have complained about my body odor. Not only can I not smell anything, but I shower three times a day and brush my teeth seven times a day. FML

OK sweaty, time for a bath

Today, I realized my morbidly obese, sweaty sibling is the source of a strange waft I've been smelling when I get home. He'll only shower once a week, so the apartment and furniture smell like sweat and sometimes poo, especially on hot days. I didn't notice until I went outside and stepped back in to follow my nose.

Today, my roommate told me she had developed a rash on her armpits, which causes them to be itchy. The doctor told her the only way to heal it is to not wear deodorant for a month. FML

Tonsil stones? Bacterial vaginosis? A corpse brought to life by dark magic?

Tell your roommate to seek immediate medical help she definitely has some sort of medical condition causing the smell 😨😲😵🤢😖

just an idea...but MAYBE YOU ARE ALLERGIC TO SOMETHING, like her soap, deodorant, perfume I am allergic to most fungi and even just smelling it makes me sick to my stomach. it is something to look into.

I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s food related. I’ve eaten too much garlic before and had the smell on me for a day or two.

Possibly a medical condition called trimethylaminuria. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trimethylaminuria

FYL and F your roomie's life. It's gotta be equally tough for her. She should consider seeing a doctor about this, though.

Perhaps she doesn’t smell bad and just happens to have a smell that YOU find bad. Perhaps it’s her soap or natural odor and you just have a sensitivity to it. Get a third party involved, see if they smell anything or check what soap she uses. Then perhaps it’s her clothing. Perhaps she has some weird medical thing.
