Frazz by Jef Mallett for November 17, 2015

The nose knows!

Goodness me, how I hate going into stores that are in a smoky haze of that foul smelling potpourri.

Women with the wall of perfume screw with my COPD and the candle section in stores

How about being allergic to mold spores?Here in the pacific northwest it’s mushroom season.Then there are molds and smuts.Fall has its own allergies for the wrong people.

I have allergies all year, but my allergy to perfume is by far the single worst. Even as a child (before I developed the allergy) I never understood why people seemed to bathe in cologne and perfume. It seems people think their smell of choice is the best ever and everyone else MUST love it or they just douse themselves to cover a lack of bathing.

I hope that there is another extended storyline before long.

God bless Mrs. Olsen, just don’t hug her ‘cause you’ll smell like her for the rest of the day! (One of the perils of knowing someone who bathes in the stuff…being stuck in an elevator with one is another)

Weellllllllll, howzeabout always wearing a swimmers nose plugs around your neck? Be very obvious about putting them on.

The two worse things you can allow in a work environment 1) perfume, 2) computer sounds. Both should be grounds for summary judgment.

I was coming home the other day from the store on my mobility scooter and there was a woman at a bus stop you could smell TWO blocks away she had on so much perfume. I know it was rude but I actually stopped and told her that her perfume could be smelled that far away and she might want to consider a bath she stank so bad. She wasn’t happy about it and quite frankly I didn’t care. Somebody need to tell her!
