    my psych/socio teacher in HS had a rather funny litmus test for that one.

    Words from his mouth were “if your ear wax is dry, you probably don’t stink anymore”

      What does ear wax being dry have to do with stink? Just wondering

        not entirely sure, but that’s what he postulated, being a middle aged man and all.

        Presumably it just means that your body is producing less material for bacteria to make smelly. But this is also 1700s levels of science lmao.
