Anon discovers hygiene

I wonder if these folks were ever taught by their parents how to clean themselves. Or, they could be neurodivergent and didn't know it.

I think the US has a large population of wolf children that nobody's ever bothered to study.
It's probably a situation where everybody has his or her own unique set of circumstances that lead them to ignore (willfully or otherwise) established self-care and hygiene.
Decades ago, I worked with a man who seemingly had this or a similar issue. There literally aren't words to adequately describe how repulsive the scent was. It was a combination of not bathing, not wearing deodorant, dirty & musty work uniform, and like he must have some kind of medical condition / crisis going on with his digestive system because there was an undeniable fecal odor but it was orders of magnitude worse than just normal human poop smell.
In his case, I think it was a learned behavior (or lack of learning) / questionable upbringing. His mom was a pretty vile woman, just mean, spiteful, hateful, abhorrent. The manager would send this guy home any time he showed up smelling like he crapped himself. And every single time, she'd physically come down to the store to have a public showdown with the manager in front of customers and employees. So, clearly she was enabling the behavior and probably had been doing it for this guy's entire life.
Dont put neurodivergent on that level

This is why YuGiOh had to add a hygiene rule.

I knew a guy like this. He is still suprised how much better it felt after he brushed his teeth. Scary stuff. Suprisingly not a channer tho.

I'm seeing less green text nowadays

Its the age verification thing. Plus the shitty captcha

wait till they discover deoderant

Bros : is it gay to wash your own ass if you have to touch your butthole?

How deep before it becomes gay?
- Putting stuff in isn't gay. It becomes gay when you pull it out.
I became as straight as this story the last time I wiped and accidentally pushed my digit through the substandard 2-play shit ticket.
later virgins

this might be a little wacky of me, but I like racism targetted towards indians(I can say that, I am one, mainland too), 70% is just truth, 20% is a little,"okay buster, calm down" and 10% is indians hating ourselves.

This rant is because the post had "poop n-word" in it, and I will laugh irl if someone called me that knowing a lot of indian slurs have poop word attached

I don't fly very often, but when I do, I always get the seat next to this guy

Before or after his epiphany? :D
Sounds like this guy figured it out. The plane passengers haven't yet.

Casual disregard of serious and unapologetic racism like that is exactly why 4-chan has such a reputation.

i don’t disagree but i think it’s more complicated than that. (explicitly don’t take this as a justification for saying slurs, i don’t condone being a shithead)
for better or worse the word has been reclaimed and not every use of the n-word has racist motivations. it’s not even always racially motivated at all anymore, and it’s been that way for decades now at least here in the US. in fact, i’d being willing to bet money that this usage of the word has likely far outpaced its use as a slur in most of America by now. both are still in use but there are clearly two entirely different sets of semantic meaning floating around. you’ll see poor white people saying it a lot now but they’re still using it in a semantic sense to just mean bro or homie, it’s not being used the way their ancestors were saying it. and back when i ran in those circles more everyone said it and nobody batted an eye, regardless of race. the word is more of an in-group vs out-group identifier in modern vernacular. you can argue about how racist the n-word is and how its history makes using it at all problematic all you want but realistically 99% of the people saying it would laugh you out of the building when confronted with those ideas and don’t give a shit. honestly a lot of discourse surrounding the n-word on the internet is made fun of by black americans. it’s tone deaf and ignorant of the black experience, most this discourse online. at worst it’s a literal white savior complex.
because 4chan strips all context and identity from threads we, as an audience, can’t really know whether or not this is what we would colloquially call racist. and if you argue that this is racist regardless of the context, that’s fair, that’s my reflexive take too - but you have to realize if you make that argument you’re implicitly arguing black reclamation of words like that is invalid under conditions of anonymity. and that’s… a whole can of worms that im probably the wrong person to open up.
is that all fucked up? yeah! but it certainly says more about culture and society than it does 4chan individually, imo. i think people like easy little boxes more than messy reality, generally speaking.
- Accurate.
  Black friends start calling you 'nigga' with the a, you're cool. If it's done in front of others, it's usually a message to other black folks. Also, cracker in a joking or affectionate way.
  However, my lily white cracker ass might get beat if I dared use the N word. I'm too white in my mannerisms and accent. I can totally use cracker.

More people need to start using bidets and washing your ass with water. The fact so many don't is disturbing

Look, I've used bidets and they're fine, but an extreme minority of humans use them. Calling the hygiene of the vast majority of earth's population "disturbing" for not using them makes bidet evangelicals sound like fucking crazy people.
- There are people that find it "disturbing" that people eat meat, or "disturbing" to drive cars everyday, even though most people in the world drive cars or eat meat.
  And I agree with the bidet stan. But I blame big toilet paper and not individuals.
- What I'm saying isn't controversial at all, paper towel alone isn't enough for you to be clean. You need water to really get clean. That's in part of why people shower every day because if you don't you can start smelling very quickly
- listen, i get it, you have your asshole spritzed by the gods one time and you magicaly turn from your average poop smearer, to bidet fanatic.
- calling it an extreme minority is misleading, you talk as if it's 1% of the world when it's closer to 10-20%

You can smell this post

Real and disgusting

Pro tip: You can go without showers for longer if you use a bidet and strong, antibacterial deodorant.

And shave your armpits. The hair is basically a bacterial incubator. You don't need to make it razor-commercial-smooth, just run a trimmer over it occasionally.
- Great point! I actually do that, too. Do it in the underpants-area, too, for good measure. Using a trimmer instead of trying to cut the hair down completely makes it really quick and easy, and prevents razor burns and nicks.

Some staph strains produce a protein that makes you itch. They are non-motile so you move them around when you scratch.

So what you're saying is I can get some antibiotics and go back to never showering again?
- At a certain point, you’d essentially be feeding a super-staph infection the now useless antibiotics as a supplement for it to grow lmao.
- They'd have to be narrow-band and topical, but technically yes. You'd still smell though... afaik lol

Wtf....
