What's the worst smell you've ever smelled?
Rotten meat?

I hear this flower has a particularly nasty and pungent scent: The Corpse Flower. Amorphophallus titanium. I'm amused by the fact that a flower that smells like dead bodies has the word "phallus" in the Latin name. It's hung pretty impressively, I guess that's why.

I remember how I used to hate riding the subway, especially in the summer, because of some of the nasty smells from people. Remember, I'm about armpit height to most normal sized people, so it can get pretty gross.
But now, I am working retail and I had almost totally forgotten that some people cannot smell how fucking raunchy they are. People, showers are useless if you put back on the same clothes you have sweated in for the last five days! Gack!
Or there is the bad breath you can smell from more than a metre and a half away, particularly the kind that says you just flicked a cigarette in the bushes before coming in here to talk to me, leaning forward and breathing it all in my face.
The smell of vomit automatically makes me gag. Puking kids make me run for a clothespin for my nose, or risk adding to the mess the second I smell it.
So, what's the whiff that makes you whimper? The redolance that causes you to recoil? The boquet that can make you barf?
