Do you actually work, little forum?
Here's hoping you stay like this without destroying Keenserver. Still, I think I'll keep the backup forum on the main page too. Just gotta take some some exams first.

Mall smell?
Is there such a thing as "mall smell"?
I know that certain places have distinct smells, like Wal-Mart, fast food restaurants, and abbatoirs, but I think malls are each distinctive in their odor.
Some are carpeted, for example. That really changes things.

mall smell!
I find that with nice malls, they have a slight "mall smell", but only if you concentrate on it.
On the other hand, some grubbier, less appealing malls have a distinctive stink you could detect way out in the parking lot with a geiger counter.
Heh, what I like is that little smell detector device they have in some deodorant commercials...they run it over the armpits of a shirt, and if there's stink it beeps and lights up red.
If that fell into the wrong hands...well, nothing really BAD would happen, but it might be funny.

Re: mall smell!
They were working on a real-life "bad breath" detector way back, but it wasn't refined enough to determine "bad" from "really strong," so if you had a mint, it would still go off.kathleenJ wrote:Heh, what I like is that little smell detector device they have in some deodorant commercials...they run it over the armpits of a shirt, and if there's stink it beeps and lights up red.

A truly evil man could probably use the scent detector in a Speed-like scenario:
"There's a bomb in the kitchen! If the [curry/garlic/tomato] scent drops too low, it'll explode!"

I dunno.
I have no idea. You'd think some of his smellier opponents would have gotten a response out of him if he did.
