Just to put the smell in perspective….

Is it worse than a sack of spoiling potatoes?

I've never smelled bad potatoes, but penguins eat mostly krill so just imagine tons of fishy poop

It’s not a smell I can really recommend, let’s just say it’s the most, uh, memorable smell I’ve smelled.

(Specifically cleaning dormitories over summer. Someone left a sack. Ac was turned off.)
