There are people who smoke and people who bathe, and most of the time the two groups overlap, but there was some guy on the bus this morning who obviously smoked and just as obviously didn't bathe. Or at least didn't bathe well. And he sat next to me. Was hard not to gag from the combo of smoke and BO. Thankfully he moved very, very quickly when another seat came available at the next stop. But, yuck!

Also thankfully, this is not typical of my commute on the bus. Most folks on my bus line are other white collars heading to work, moms with kids, and blue collar folks also on their way to work. All of whom have pretty good personal hygeine habits.

Oh, and of course, the minute he got off the bus, out came the lighter and a cigarette. Ick.

Bourgeoisie contempt for the urban worker? The class system thrives in the hygienically-conscious minds of America! :)

For the record…

We're in agreement on the smoking issue. A total turnoff, no matter how witty or cute someone is.
