copper money, I hate even touching the stuff because the smell it leaves on your hands is ****ing disgusting, if there was a vote to abolish all copper money I'd be at the start of the queue on polling day

I hate all change. Actually, to be honest I hate cash altogether. Touching notes and coins that could've been touched by thousands of people who never wash their hands, dropped on the floor etc. Paying by cards handier than carrying cash, saves room in peoples wallets and purses too.

Chemicals ?

As a result of evolution we can smell a lot of the biologically active ones. Cats can't taste sweetness but we can experience the fruity smell of esters. Alcohols and ketones are fine. An d a good organic chemist can tell a lot of functional groups by what's left of their sense of smell.

But there's other things out there.

Pyridine. It's smelly but that's not the issue what makes it really bad is that it causes male sterility.

I don't like things like butyric acid (silage) but amines are worse Putrescine does smell putrid and no prizes for guessing if Cadaverine smells nice or not. The sickly sweet smells are worse than the pungent acrid ones.

Hydrogen Sulphide is the smell of rotten eggs. It's more poisonous than cyanide but the sneaky thing about it is that at high concentrations it you don't smell it anymore.

Ethyl Mercaptan - I've not had the pleasure but have worked with some similar compounds which smelt so vile you hat to put the air tight container inside another air tight container and there's still a hint of gas leak.

On a more personal note I don't like pickled onions.

Used to work with Pyridine and Hydrogen Sulphide, hated the smell of both of them. And the fact both are highly flammable and fairly nasty.
pyridine was the type of smell that stuck with you for the rest of the day too

people smelling heavily of garlic. uurrgh.

the smell that comes out of the SUBWAY sandwich stores. they smell all the same but the worst was in nyc, I went into a shop just to grab a coffee, the smell was so thick and heavy I could hardly breathe..had to turn around and leave instantly, otherwise I think I would have puked in the place...horrible experience.

I may as well have written this myself. I have to hold my breath passing subway shops and leave the room if the missus is cooking garlic bread or chicken kievs or the like!

Has to be the 2 worst food smells by a country mile!

Garlic.

deadybai · 10-12-2014 11:09am

Subway shops smell fcuking awful. What the hell is causing that rancid smell???

sbsquarepants · 10-12-2014 11:11am

I have no idea - but apparently that's their appeal - I just can't grasp it, it literally smells worse than shít!

jimgoose · 10-12-2014 11:15am

I have a somewhat unusual sense of smell insofar as, for historical reasons, I am completely immune to the smell of pig-excrement, and sometimes even find it quite pleasant, depending on the humour. However, I dislike the pervasive smell in pet-shops and veterinary surgeries a great deal.

Cucumbers,
I can smell them Bast*rds a mile off.

Many, many years ago I used a chemical called Pyrrolidine in college which has quite a specific smell.

"Pyrrolidine, is a colourless liquid that is miscible with water and most organic solvents with a characteristic semen-like odor."

It was very funny when using it to watch the reactions of any of the female students when they got a whiff of it. The more innocent girls didn't react at all whereas the more "knowing" girls would stop and look around or try and gauge what's going on. The lads in the class made a mental note of these girls.;)

The worst thing I have ever smelt is a billy goat. Absolutely appalling, sickening stench.

King George VI · 10-12-2014 11:30am

This is gonna be unpopular I think, but the smell of Marks and Spencer's makes me want to puke. Most people I know love it but it just smells like diabetes to me.

Badly Drunk Boy · 10-12-2014 11:33am

Mushy peas.

Boiled or scrambled eggs.

Coffee.

This reminds me of a girl I met a few months ago who was diabetic. She smelt horrible, a really sickly sweet stench.

Another foul smell is my sister's bed. It stinks horribly of all the farts and onion sweat trapped inside it.

When someone sprays air freshener in the toilet after they have intoxicated the place.

When I was at school, my science teacher had the most awful breath I've ever smelt. It was like something had died in there, her breath honestly smelt like a rotting corpse mixed with dog poo. She used to stand over the pupils during lessons, talking at each child individually over our shoulders, breathing in our faces. Eventually it became so unbearable that my best friend and decided to let her know her breath was bad, in case she hadn't realised. We got a travel-sized toothpaste and travel-sized mouthwash, wrapped them up, wrote the teacher's name on the package and left it in the lab for her. For the next few days her breath was slightly minty, but then she just went back to her bad ways again.
