Preferences?
Not stinking up a whole room goes beyond a preference into a biohazard warning.
Make that two, I suppose.
What is it with this extremism? People don't instantly turn into heaps of rotting garbage the moment they neglect to put some chemicals on their underarms.
extremism ._.
Yes. Is "biohazard warning" not hyperbolic in the extreme?
So, expecting basic hygiene from people is extremism now?
No, calling a smell that you find unpleasant a "biohazard" is extreme.
If, hypothetically, I found body piercings to be distasteful, wouldn't it be kind of an overreaction for me to demand that paramedics come fix the "stab wounds" on people with piercings that I encounter?
I mean actual shit smell is a biohazard, though. Like if someone didn't wipe well enough, that's a biohazard (very minor, but still).
Covering that up with perfume wouldnโt help though.
