Jason B Posted August 18, 2009 Posted August 18, 2009 Sorry but I just had to post this.... http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics...body-odour.html Quote
Dvo Posted August 18, 2009 Posted August 18, 2009 Pretty funny if you ask me. But also pretty harsh. While BO is certainly unpleasant, I don't think that they should be removed from the park.. Quote
Beast1979 Posted August 18, 2009 Posted August 18, 2009 Wow really? That's ridiculous. Who was the genius with the sensitive nose who came up with this brilliant idea? Quote
rotag Posted August 18, 2009 Posted August 18, 2009 I say he let his scence of smell overide his comon scence. Quote
iChase Posted August 18, 2009 Posted August 18, 2009 This seems a bit silly. You are on a roller coaster with the wind drying out your less desirable areas, and dispersing the smell to boot. Quote
AintNutinElse2Do Posted August 18, 2009 Posted August 18, 2009 While I must say some people really do stink, it's part of it. When you go out into public you should expect certain things especially in a theme park enviroment. It's one thing to ask someone to leave at a sit-down restaurant due to the smell affecting those around, but in a theme park come on, on a hot summer day most everyone will end up stinking at some point in the day. That's why having all the fresh air around you is a good thing. It's a slippery slope, what if I was to go there and complain that a person's uglyness obscured my view of their coasters theming???

fan of beast Posted August 18, 2009 Posted August 18, 2009 spend some time in europe and you will be enlightened to the problem. they don't use deodorant and don't bathe near as often as americans. Quote
StalkerChick Posted August 18, 2009 Posted August 18, 2009 spend some time in europe and you will be enlightened to the problem. they don't use deodorant and don't bathe near as often as americans. *sigh* the UK is not near as bad as the rest of europe... they also have dentists.... besides I don't know what their issue is, temps don't get nearly as high as they do around ohio in the summer. stoopid ppl.... Stalker, who spent quite a few months living in the UK to know the stereotypes there... Quote

Cody Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 spend some time in europe and you will be enlightened to the problem. they don't use deodorant and don't bathe near as often as americans. I was going to say Im pretty sure majority don't use deodorant. SO now saying that you guys can go back re-read and then maybe think this isn't such a bad idea after all. I know one thing I expect people to put on deodorant everyday in the morning or before sweaty activities. Quote
BavarianBeatle Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 GB has become basically a totalitarian society since the 7/7 attack. Be glad we had 1776..... Quote
Jasper Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 I have experienced some pretty wicked odor at KI. Next time you board WWC on a hot day, after you buckle your seat belt, smell your hands where they touched the elastic part of the belt. Sickening. Quote
The Interpreter Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 Or just give the restraints on Firehawk a good sniff. Do NOT do this if you have a weak stomach. Pugh! Quote
luff Posted August 22, 2009 Posted August 22, 2009 I think the bigger problem than riding with a person with excessive BO is standing in line for more than an hour near one. Quote
The Interpreter Posted August 22, 2009 Posted August 22, 2009 Though I'd rather not do either, I'd much rather be behind someone in line with a BO problem than with a "gaseous explosions" problem. Pugh! Quote
