So about 5 or 6 years ago I got bit by the board gaming bug.  Since then, I have amassed a collection of about 450 board games.  I really enjoy the Euro-style strategy games, but I also enjoy Ameritrash games like FORTRESS AMERICA.  Anyway, one of my friends who I have known since high school hosts all-day gaming events at his house 4 or 5 times every year.  He brews his own beer and also provides a meal (usually, pulled pork cooked in his smoker).

On Saturday, I attended one of these events.  It was a fairly hot and humid day, and my friend's house is not air conditioned.  So, he opened the windows and set up a couple of electric fans to circulate the air.

During one game, I was sitting at the end of the table directly across from a guy who apparently had not showered that morning.  (The gaming starts at 9:00 a.m., so I assume he just didn't get out of bed in time to wash).  There was a fan directly behind him blowing the stench of his body straight into my face.  Luckily, that game only lasted about 3 hours . . .

Later, I was playing a different game in the living room.  The same guy was sitting in the kitchen with his back to me.  His pants were down near his hips, exposing about 4 inches of glistening butt crack. 

Is it wrong for me to expect:

1. Basic hygiene
2. A well-covered ass

when I spend time with friends????

There are a good number of gamers who seem to consider good hygiene to be optional. Usually, but not always, they are rather large folk as well, so you get the really choice funk that tends to ferment in the folds of flesh. (Wow, that sounded like a movie trailer from the 70s!)

D&D folk used to be the worst.

You should have gotten some guys together, gotten a jar of olives out of the refrigerator, stood about 10 feet behind him and seen who could toss an olive into his buttcrack.

I have never attended a gaming convention, but I have read and heard many stories about people who apparently do not bathe or brush their teeth for the entire weekend (and may not have bathed or brushed their teeth for a few days before they got there, either).

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.
