    a creek that frequently smells like laundry detergent and occasionally like sewage. Laundry fragrances aren’t effectively removed with waste treatment practices

    Maybe you should see if you can find a way to follow up - maybe something isn’t working right or some business is taking a shortcut

    I’m sure we’re all biased by our experiences. In my case, I don’t like strongly scented stuff but can generally tolerate it. I think of it in the same box as someone putting on too much perfume/cologne, or someone smoking whatever where the rest of us have to walk through. It’s annoying af.

    So my biased attitude is that there are choices and every time I choose an unscented product, I help generate profit incentive for more of the same. I can also choose to make a big deal of it where I live, and I can choose not to spend time or money with people or places that stink.

    But it’s their choice too. They can stink if they want to. We can leave your friends behind 'Cause your friends do stink and if they do stink,Well, they’re no friends of mine.
