My dog really stinks!
I really should give him a wash.

xsiborg · 11-06-2008 11:02PM

used sanitary towels! RANK!! :eek:

20 year old gear oil can be really gag worthy.
If you have never smelt it... the old stuff was ordinary oil that was thickened using render

A big dirty sh1te after 15 pints of guinness.

Raw hole. Big smell.

Water, when it's left in a bucket, barrel etc, for quite a while can be putrid. I don't know how long it takes to stagnate, but there's a hell of a pong from it.

OrangeDaisy · 11-06-2008 11:20PM

a place where i used to work had a dead rat trapped in a wall cavity.....smelled rancid for about 2 weeks and make several people(including me) throw up on numerous occasions.....worst smell ever!!

A wolf that was introduced to a new wolf pack..endless scraps later.(they obviously didnt like the poorfella).a wound that was found was riddled with maggots under a patch of semi healed skin! After lfiting the half healed skin..that smell and image of mega happy fly-babies would be enough to put you off food forever!

Do i win?:D

A friend of mine and his family were killed and left in the house for a week in the height of a Greek summer. They had a closed casket funeral and even then the smell made me nearly lose my stance and collapse. Granted though, it was quite emotional too.

Wow, where was this, what happened?

RedXIV · 12-06-2008 01:22AM

Cleaning the grease pit outside my house with my dad the other week. smell nearly floored me

The smell in the cancer ward when i used to work in a hospital, i think it was actually the cheapo air-freshener they used to use, didnt really mask the smell, just made it worse.

incidently has anybody ever smelt that plant "Titan arum (Amorphophallus titanum) (corpse flower)" its supposed to be the most rotten fouls stench known to man, i think it only blooms once every couple of years in a rainforest. id like to sample its stench once in my life, just to be able to say i smelt it.

In a hospital where I worked in London, the corridor where i was escorting patients to their changing room became overpowered by a rotten stench. As the minutes passed by it got worse and worse. I started to feel sick, so I brought my patients the long way around to avoid this corridor (I was afraid they'd think it came from me!). Eventually, a doctor popped out of the room where this stench was emerging from and apologised, explaining he'd just drained a rather large abscess from a patient!
It took two days for the smell to go, we constantly sprayed air fresheners and perfumes to no avail.

Old cow stomachs which had been left in plastic barrels in the sun. We had to get rid of them. I puked alot that day.:eek:

alie · 12-06-2008 09:10AM

A bucket of rollmops, gross.

kraggy · 12-06-2008 09:38AM

Goat's cheese.

Also, many years ago, got a whiff of the Hal-Al meat factory while in Ballyhaunis.

Unbearable.

Pighead · 12-06-2008 09:42AM

There's nothing that makes Pighead's nose crinkle up in disgust more than a trouts fanny. Disgusting.

2-mercaptoethanol (for those with a science background)

Nasty, nasty stuff:(

BeansMeansHynes · 12-06-2008 09:49AM

My ex boyfriend after a night of guinness!!! :eek:

I reckon PCI in DNA extraction is worse. Pewwwwww and makes you really drowsy. Can't keep it in the fume cupboard, it gets everywhere.

I had a Summer job working for a construction firm. They got a contract to replace the roof of a meat factory and it was one of the hottest Summers back in the mid 90's. This meat factory also happened to be on strike for a few weeks at this stage and there was bits of meat lying around and the skins of cows and sheep sitting in barrells. The stench was stomach turning, I had to come down from the roof so many times as I thought I was going to pass out.

Steve_o · 12-06-2008 10:33AM

The Chilling Factory in Kildare Town on a warm day is not pleasent... nearly crashed the car going past it one day.

Duggy747 · 12-06-2008 10:53AM

I knew one guy who didn't know the benefits of soap. His feet stunk EVERYTHING up!! If his foot would rest on an armrest for more than 30 seconds then the smell became one with the couch and it would never go away :eek: I swear his feet were dead and were just decomposing away!!

There's very little smells that would make me gag but the worst came from a girl's fanny, OH....MY....GOD!!! I was with this chick at a party and we went into a room. Got our freak on and I went down-town to introduce her to Mr. Tongue & Dr. Fingers but to my horror..............a ghastly, dead fishy-behind-the-radiator, mouldy cheese waft of a smell nearly knocked me for six!! I was quite drunk but the smell sobered me up like a cold shower in a snap!

I was afraid to touch fannys after that experience

The smell of the Dorm rooms in Magnums of Magnetic Island NE Australia....Mix of cabbage with turnips with god only knows what else..... One night and straight outta there the next day!!

xzanti · 12-06-2008 11:25AM

TBH stale ashtrays make me hurl.. Nothing worse than sitting in someones house and getting that awful smell and turns out theres a overloaded ashtray under the couch or something... I'm sure there are worse, decaying bodies etc.. But thankfully I've never smelled one of those, well apart from animal roadkill I suppose, that's pretty cat (scuse the pun) :pac:

Calibos · 12-06-2008 12:28PM

My dogs swollen anal gland being evacuated by the vet. ie sticking his finger in her backside and squeezing the contents out of the swollen gland. The most rancid smell that felt in the nose like it was a thick vapour if you know what I mean. Its like it wasn't just a smell, it was a thick viscous vapour flowing up your nose. Myself and the bro0ther started dry retching and the Vet had a good laugh because he was used to it.

animan · 12-06-2008 12:40PM

One of those giant kettle things that people use on coffee days and whatnot had a dead rat in and this water was being put in peoples coffee for 3 days(glad I don't drink it). Now that smell was bad. I imagine the taste was too.

b_beep · 12-06-2008 12:56PM

Dog farts after they've eaten chicken - that'll stop you in your tracks

A former girlfriend (Thank God!!) had this habit of abandoning skidded kex and used jamm rags in a wicker basket ,letting the pile build up for months.

Frikken bang from the basket especially in Summer would bring a bull rhino to its knees.Revolting.I nearly gagged every time I dined at the Y.

The nastiest odour you've encountered.
