Are you doing everything that will better your chances at getting a job or a date?
That's not the point, and one's offensive smell is a massive barrier to employment.
I really don't understand people like you.
Of course. I know. Everybody knows. I'm simply suggesting that something being a fact isn't making it okay or good.
What kind of person do you think I am?
A contrarian who would rather play these stupid games instead of helping a comrade out by recognizing a problem they have and giving good advice? You're not helping here, you're just enabling poor hygiene because you're way too preoccupied with playing the devil's advocate.
You said
in response to someone saying
Notice how you conveniently left out the part about this helping to get a person friends? Instead, you fixated on them being hygienic only for the sake of getting a job or dates. Why did you do that? Surely you understand the importance of hygiene in relation to making/having friends-- something extremely important for one's mental health?
Stop playing this game. It especially sucks because you're playing this contrarian game when someone in a bad situation is basically asking for a reality check, but instead of giving them a reality check you're just entertaining/enabling their incorrect beliefs.
