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

Rotten meat?

Skunk?

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?
 
Ilove my job but some days it is the worst. The boys shy away from the smellier parts and I usually get stuck with things like cleaning out the freezer that has been without electric for a few months but is still full of food.

There are worse things that I have seen and smelled but I wont disgust y'all with the details.

By all means, the whole point of this thread is to disgust and alarm. Don't hold back!

I can imagine a nasty, rotting freezer. :(

Then imagine the wretched stink of GB progressives voting for a woman who charged a 12-year-old girl with inviting a 41-year-old man to horrendously rape her...

I wanna see that plant in person...not sure I want to smell it though.

You asked for it....

One of the houses we did last winter (thankfully it was winter) had had the water off for quite some time but the occupants continued to use the toilet. By the time we got there it was full of frozen poo. My boss had the insane idea to turn the heat on overnight so we could flush it. When that didnt work He had to scoop the feces out into a bucket while I held a flashlight (the bathroom lights were trashed) a coworker who was also holding a flashlight had to leave abruptly, yeah he threw up. My boss and I have dealt with this a few times, doesn't make it easy, but you know what to expect at least. How poeple live like that is beyond me.

Okay, I was more thinking of actual stinks, not metaphorical stinks.

Eyer! Your doing well on this nick, I think you may even make 1,000 posts this time. It's a new, recent record.
 
Stale puke.

The sewage treatment plant incinerator.

Rotten bottom fish.
 
One time, my brother called me into his kitchen and said "Hey, get a smell of this!" It was a carton of chocolate milk that he'd forgotten about in the back of his fridge for something like six months. I don't know if the chocolate made it smell worse than normal milk, but it was pretty horrible. I almost puked.

I also don't know why the hell I agreed to smell it.
 
A couple of years ago, my mother was individually packaging pork chops for the freezer.

Don't ask me how it happened, but one of the pork chops slipped off the counter, and fell into one of the lower kitchen drawers, that was slightly open.

She did not notice the missing renegade chop, and put the others in the freezer.
She then closed all the drawers.

Three days later, she said there was a "funny smell" in the kitchen.

I told her to take out her garbage, and wash the can with soapy water.

Two days after that, the smell was worse, and was affecting most of her apartment, not just the kitchen.

I put baking soda down her drain, washed out the cupboard under the sink, went through her entire fridge, pulled the fridge out in case a mouse had died back there, and no where could I find what was causing the smell.

More than a week after the rogue chop fell into the drawer, she finally found it, green and slimy and fermenting on top of some cookbooks. Needless to say, the cookbooks went in the trash, and I had to bleach out that drawer.
 
You miss garbage pickup a couple of times during the summer. And garbage bags with fish guts have a chance to rot inside the large wheeled bin that holds 3 bags. Stand way back when you take the lid off, use gloves and say a silent apology to the garbage man.
 
One smell sticks in my memory, all the others don't come close....Vaginal infection.

A distant 2nd is Vietnam, the literal world of shit.
 
Top 3.

1) Exploded person all over the inside of a vehicle that you're still in. All the super fresh shit, piss, blood and bile all over everything. It all gets vaporized in a thick cloud, so you're inhaling your buddy and you can taste the mix of all that nasty at the same time. It's so fucking gross....just beyond foul.

2)The smell of 3rd world shit hole on fire, nothing else quite like it. It's like a giant city sized dump and a sewage plant on fire at the same time.


3)Paper mill....god damn those things are beyond rank.

Chicken shit ranks very high on my list.
I'm not talking about one or two chickens worth either.
I mean a literal truck load of half rotted chicken shit that a farmer is spreading on the field behind my house.
 
Alcohol.

Since I stopped drinking, when someone is around me after a night of hard box wine consumption, I wanna puke.
