I was there today and the stench was unbearable. Smells like terrible B.O.
I don't think this is setting a good example and it can really drive away additional supporters.
We need to address this issue ASAP
Dude, its new york. The entire town smells like bum dung and hardcore piss.
If that's all you have to complain about then I'd say OWS is doing pretty fucking well. You never smelled another human being before? Or maybe you think we just naturally smell like body spray? Get a fucking grip.
It's just disgusting, at least take care of yourself, no one wants to smell your shit
I have noticed, there are 4 sewers/manholes surrounding the plaza and at night there is steam being released along with a putrid scent which wafts into the plaza and lingers the following day. One could call 311...
Unless you guys start letting skunks rot on the street I'm sure you can't smell as bad as the CEOs of wall st
Maybe arrange payment with some hotels in the area to let people use the shower before the room is turned over for a small fee. Never hurts to ask. What about providing hand sanitation stations or wipes to prevent disease?
Why don't they organize a scubdown to wash the side walks of the park? It's not impossible, I'm sure people would help.
That happened last Friday.
I was there Sat and didn't think it smelled that bad. I guess it should be a weekly thing- especially with all the rain we just had.
the guy posting is a troll
No, I'm not. Some person just called me a troll in a topic that I posted because he didn't like what I had to say... unless you mean posting the topic. I don't know, it seems hard to get info. I just want to help more.
not you I mean the original poster. he just posts provocative stuff, who knows if he's really even in nyc
are there no public showers?
Bring some incense next time
I'm sure Valley Forge didn't smell so good, either.
lol
Nobody is burning incense? I can't believe that
No, it doesn't do much for our credibility or neighborly relations to stink. . .
Axe body spray.
One.can could Sanitize up.to 20 protestors
You guys can afford some body wash. <_<
Mold on the tarps?
Must be
Agreed. I was in Army and we never smelled that bad
It's the communist revolutionarys
Maybe because you all deficate on the ground and don't take showers?
Could be this. The smell is so bad I can't describe it
Just throw some Patchouli oil on to disguise the BO. It makes for a special blended scent we have all come to recognize so well.
