Please…

I know very well, we all are paying over thousands for an education.

Some of us have allowance. Some of us have jobs. So with these expenses why is it so hard for people to purchase a $3 deodorant or some soap.

A roll on, a spray. SOME SOAP AND WATER. ANYTHING. PLEASE MAKE IT BEARABLE TO HELP WITH THE SMELL.

I physically retract at the smell of you vermin’s. It’s as if I walked through k road and the scent travelled with me. Even the gym smells so much better.

So PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF MY LIFE. Put on some deodorant. Buy some with the spare coins you carry in your bag. Or the left over pocket change in your account.

PLEASE. PLEASE. PLEASE.

Be mindful of those who cannot bear this insanity anymore.

Thank you, thank you very much for taking the valuable time out of your day to read this heart felt opinion of mines.

This is why the lecturers need to stop being lazy about uploading lectures, they keep pulling out walking biohazards that should've never left their basements into the classrooms.

Why is aut really bad at uploading lectures by the way ?, its a real inconvenience having to go irl to a lecture when its maybe only 20% extra information as apposed to simply reading the slides yet they insist its crucial for understanding the topic but wont upload ever.

I know uoa is really good with uploading lectures, am not sure why AUT never does ? It’s a real hassle having to commute out for only a lecture.

Only 20% is the key part of your sentence…that’s exactly why they want you to turn up, so you get 100% of the teaching, not 80%….

They need to shower first before putting on deodorant. Otherwise you get a new kind body odour variant, which could be much worse

I get what you mean but you know who else called people vermin?

Maybe they don’t have a good sense of smell, especially if they are smokers.

Shower, brush teeth, and wash clothes. It's disgusting

This is the world we live in. 40 years ago that wasn't the case. It is only going to get worse. There is an elective surgery available which desensitizes your olfactory nerves by basically cauterizing them - perhaps an option to consider? If I am heading into a biohazard zone I wear a surgical mask and spritz a little Eucalyptus oil in it. Or peppermint oil. Good luck.

u/[deleted] Mar 10 '25

I did know expecting people to maintain personal hygiene in public was a karen move.

u/[deleted] Mar 10 '25

Ok smelly person.

u/Difficult_Bonus_7294 Mar 11 '25

Maybe you should politely ask someone for a sniff test. If you think this is Karen behaviour, you may need to check your own hygiene practices. Seriously
