„They“ is a neutral pronoun you can use to avoid the awkwardness of he/she

Thankfully my current office doesn’t have anyone I interact with like this, but at a previous job I’m pretty sure the dude bought cologne by the 55 gallon drum. It was painful.

[Me, entering the office building] *sniff* Oh, $coworker is here today.

And they came through here 2 hours ago.

[-] MadMadBunny@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 months ago

He left an hour ago too

I can smell when my neighbors opened their door, and I can even give an educated guess when it happened. It's cigarette smoke in their case though.

Came here to say the same thing. I have a coworker who's so consistent and heavy-handed with his cologne that I don't ever have to visually check if he's in the office or not.

When I was around 8 years old, my mother and I took a Greyhound bus across the country to visit the grandparents. We were sat next to a woman who was drenched in perfume. There's a picture of me sitting next to said woman with my eyes absolutely streaming tears from being so badly irritated.

Ever walked past someone and started choking?

Why yes, I have in fact been to the Tacoma Mall. 😁

i mean when you're in high school and are bombarded with commercials that say "saturate yourself to the core fibers of your very soul with axe body spray, and women will basically throw their vaginas at your face as an involuntary reflex action"...is there any other option but to do what they say?

Cologne/perfume should be discovered, not announced.

She's a maniac. Maniac on perfume.

[-] elvith@feddit.org 1 points 3 months ago

And she's smelling, like she never smelled before!

Tip: don’t hold your breath instead preserve the clean air in your lungs by taking rapid short breaths until loss of consciousness occurs

I'll take this over the people that leave elevators smelling like an ashtray after they're gone.

Ya but cigarettes are amazing. Oh how I miss them!

As I always tell my 9th graders:

„If I can taste your perfume by walking past your classroom, it’s a tad too much.“

[-] arin@lemmy.world -1 points 3 months ago

Why the fuck are 9th graders wearing perfume?

[-] Gerudo@lemmy.zip 1 points 3 months ago

9th grade in the states is high school level. I mean, it's probably just body sprays, not actual cologne and perfume, and they might be self conscious about body odor being just past or still in puberty?

[-] arin@lemmy.world -4 points 3 months ago

Kids should act like kids, perfume and cologne should be banned and confiscated in school, there's no place in children's schools for these distractions. It will hinder other kids from paying proper attention in class!

[-] Gerudo@lemmy.zip 1 points 3 months ago

Did you drop your /s? If perfume and d

If you were to ban perfumes and colognes, would you ban scented deodorant? Out of everything students have to worry about...you think this distracts them?

[-] arin@lemmy.world -3 points 3 months ago

Schools can provide free unscented deodorant
