Actors who look

Screw 'em if they can't take a joke.
But really, for the kind of money they make in general...if I made that kind of money, people could call me anything they want to.

But just try to imagine the reaction somebody would have on learning that complete strangers, from observing them on film, have speculated that they might be smelly. "Why would they think that? Do I look smelly? Am I smelly?" It would drive any slightly insecure person up the wall. That's what's making me laugh.

I know what you're saying and it is quite amusing.

Scott. Theaters actually provided scratch 'n' sniff cards for John Waters' "Polyester." And you could get them at Burger King and Blockbuster for "The Rugrats Gone Wild."

As for films . . . "Lair of the White Worm"

"My, god! Kevin. You have such appalling b.o. And save your breath. You have halitosis, too."

But, that was a character called Kevin, the Scout, played by Chris Pitt in the film. And as an actor, he never looked any stinkier then any other actor.

As for actor, who truly stank in real life . . .

William Barclay "Bat" Masterson, who can be seen playing himself in "Jack Johnson." My godfather, who was a deputy sheriff in the wild West, when the West was really wild, knew "Bat" slightly. And he said he never knew "Bat" to take a bath. The most "Bat" would do, to cover up the ordor, was to splash himself with cheap cologne, now and then. I guess it wouldn't pay to stand down wind of the man on a windy day.

I used to work with a girl with that level of insecurity.

I was talking to a co-worker when she approached and I said "Okay we have to stop talking about her now.  Here she comes."

She looked at me and said "I know you guys think I'm a b***h."

My reply was "We don't think you're a b***h, we think you're a flake."

She spent the rest of the day asking everyone else in the place what a flake was and whether they thought she was one and I ended up with a verbal reprimand for 'insulting her'.

Has anyone mentioned Shelley Winters (old fat lady smell)
                                                Claude Akins (old drunk smell)
                                          or Eli Wallach (old drunk Mexican smell)
