Today, I went to the mall with some friends. We all kept smelling this god awful B.O. smell and had no idea where it was coming from. On the car ride home, we all figured out it was actually me. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, while in class, I noticed that someone had really bad B.O. I was seated next to an extremely ill-mannered girl, so I figured it was her, and thought to myself that if it happened again, I'd tell her off. Once I got home and took off my jacket, I realized it was me. I forgot to put on deodorant. FML
Today, I was running around the track at school PE with a lot of other students. I noticed a guy who smelled really bad and I thought to myself how disgusting that was and I felt bad for him. Later, I was changing and caught a whiff of my shirt. It wasn't him who was smelly. FML
Today, I cleaned my entire apartment hoping to find the source of the terrible odor I've been smelling for the past week. It's me. FML
Today, I was at a restaurant waiting for a table. Some lady walked by, smelling like BO and patchouli oil. I attempted to cover my nose with my sweatshirt, but I thumped a small girl in the process. FML
Today, I returned home after a four day weekend at my parents' house. Upon entering by the front door, a horrid stench assaulted my nose. Hours later I still cannot find the source of the foul odor. I'm starting to wonder if this is how it's always smelled without my knowing. FML
Today, I was walking into class when the guy i like walked in and said "Gross it smells like grandma in here. What, did someone bathe in their perfume today?" I was the only girl in the room and I just bought new perfume. I thought I smelled good, apparently I didn't. FML
Today, while at the gym, I noticed a foul smell while on elliptical machine. I figured it was the little old lady on the machine next to me. It was so bad I had to leave. When I got in my truck, I realized the smell had followed me. It was me. My cat had pissed on my workout clothes. FML
Today, while going to the bathroom, I noticed a smell lingering. It smelled good so I kept sniffing the air. And then it hit me. My poop! My poop smelled good and I'd been sniffing and enjoying it. FML
Today, I was going for a walk and I kept smelling pee wherever I went. After about an hour, I finally figured out that the smell was me. My dog had peed on my sweatshirt. FML
Today, I got the feeling that my phone smelt of cigarettes and B.O. I smelt it, realised that it was my hands that smelt, then got confused and thought maybe it was my nose piercing that smelt. I then realised my psychology class was watching me trying to smell my own nose. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

from my experience, you usually can't smell your own BO as well as others might be able to ... must have been baaaad

It's okay OP, happens to the best of us. Honestly at least now you'll be hyper aware of it and it probably won't happen again.

I guess OP doesn't do this. But whenever I smell body odor, I always check myself first.. Lol

In an emergency the perfume store has samples.

Perfume on top of BO? Never a good match

Yeah thats like air freshener on top of garbage.

True, but it might be better than nothing. I'd rather air freshener on top of garbage then just pure garbage. (Depending on the scent of air freshener)

Better idea is to go to the bathroom and wet a paper towel and soap it up, go to stall and scrub your pits doesn't get them super clean or smelling nice but at least limits it

Hi, Gene.

personal hygiene is the first thing you do before you go out...

Shower next time before you hit up the mall, you never know -- you might see a cutie that you want to talk to, but your BO will do all the talking (that you don't want) for you.

Oh, you're *that* friend: the one who doesn't shower.

You know the mall has like a million cologn and perfume samples right? You had a that many chances to clear it up. Your own fault op. Also, why not put on deodorant in the first place? Damnit.

Damn…spraying deodorant on yourself doesn't count as having a shower

First mistake is using the spray deoderant, it doesn't last long. Which could be why they smell in the first place.
