Burning cat poop is definately one of the worst smells ever. Our neighbors burn their cat poop, and the stench lasts for days. It’s horrible!

I too love the smell of diesel exhaust. My dad used to be a diesel mechanic and I loved to go up to his work while the trucks would be running. I could smell that exhaust all day.

Okay Matthew I just have to say get over the President already! If you people hated Bush so much than why the flip did the population vote for a second term? Besides that’s not a freakin’ smell so you’re not accomplishing anyting.

On that point, the worst smell that I’ve ever had the displeasure of smelling was ester. It smells like vomit and it is STRONG. In my high school lab we needed ester, and not only did it fill the room with that nasty stink for a week, but it spread out and stunk up all the hallways in the area.

Thanks for the info Rowan. Something I hadn’t heard of (though I’m suddenly reconsidering getting a dog now! I’ll have to consider A.G. problems when selecting a breed — if that’s something they track).

But enough about anal glands — time for breakfast.

Ahhh–LOVE diesel exhaust. One of my fondest childhood memories, walking behind the buses revved up to leave school in the afternoon. If I ever commit suicide, that’s the way I’d wanna go. (Don’t call 911–I’m not going to kill myself).

How about the Bush presidency? That’s stunk like hell for EIGHT YEARS.

I moved from the US to Italy a year ago and I can tell you something that just might actually smell WORSE than ‘Stench Soup’. Really. Want to find it yourself? Go to Naples and get in a car with a dirty windshield. Drive near the center of the city. When a Gypsy comes to your window and offers to clean your windshield for 5 Euros or she’ll go get her ‘friends’, ask to smell her breath. All of your hair will fall out and you’ll faint. When you wake up in the Hospital a week later with your ophactory system removed, call the Dalton woman and tell her the truth…

I thought I was be the only person in the world who loved the smell of diesel exhaust. This is great.

My freshman year of college I came back to the dorm after spring break to discover that one of my hall mates had left cooked chicken in her (unplugged) mini fridge the entire week. I can’t imagine what the smell was like in the room itself, but the entire hall reeked for weeks afterward.
