Unforgettable Odors: The Worst Smells in Life

I've got a pretty sensitive nose and I've always smelled everything since I was a kid. I have no idea why but whenever I pick something up no matter what it is I smell it. The smell is also linked to memory somehow, so I guess that's why I have a good memory.

Here are a few top choices for worst-smelling things

• The back of my ear after I forget to wash there for a few days (take your index finger swab the length of the back of your ear and try it)
• A blackhead is growing on your back, and you can't reach it. You were unaware of it until your wife wanted to dig it out with a pair of tweezers.
• A sippy cup of milk that has been under the seat for months until the stink escapes the one-way valve.
• I used to own a toy called a Stink Blaster. It was fun to play with at work. I had to keep it in a zip lock bag in the garage.

Probably the worst thing I've ever smelled is when I got home from school one day. As soon as I got out of the car, the smell was overwhelming. It hit me like a sack of soiled diapers left out on the beach during the summer months. We finally tracked down the source. Apparently, there was a dead cow on the hillside and it was halfway decomposed and apparently exploded.
