Wonna sniff me?

 

[chaseter]

Ha.............

 

[Rain Dog]

What are you talking about? I smell like lilac and daffodils.

 

[Stryder]

I thought generally they smell. Last time I was at comic-con I almost passed out from the fumes. True story

A better title for this thread would be Why do SOME comic book fans smell bad. Instead you are making a broad generalization about a group of people who post on this board. Not a good way to make friends.

Good point! Sorry for the mix up. Also I thought "comic-book fan" was being narrow, instead of saying fanboy.

reading comics makes you sweaty . . . . it's no easy task, you know . . . .

You should know the answer then. Because, obviously, you're a comic book fan. And, you know what they ("they" meaning "you") say about all comic book fans.

Have not bought a comic book in over 3 years. Does that make me ex-communicated?

Did you smell three years ago?

I can smell you from here. You tell me.

 

[chaseter]

I've never owned or sat down and read a comic book...just online.

I'd say it's the lack of girlfriends to tell them "take a shower now, or else no sex!".

I wandered into a comic/gaming shop one time while there was a big group of gamers sitting around various tables playing collectible card games, D&D and the like. Normally the place didn't smell bad, but that day the scent of BO and french fries was quite overpowering.

Where's my "other" option when I really need it?

If I smell bad it's because you're not used to the smell of shampoo and hair conditioner. Either that or I was recently in a mud wrestling match or just came back from a night of dancing at the clubs, or both.

 

[kedrell]

I'm just glad I have no sense of smell then. I've been dodging a bullet all these years.

 

[E. Nygma]

i shower daily!

It was very funky in Mid Town Comics last time I was there.

Does anyone know?

I think you need to take a bath.

 

[Lex Luthor]

Perhaps some smoke alot of cigarettes, along with a steady diet of junk food.

 

[Warhammer]

Maybe they just don't wipe well enough.

Oh good God, that was just awfully wrong. Funny, but wrong.
