Old People Creep Me Out...And Smell Bad Too

I've never been a big fan of old people. I'm not talking about people in their 50's or 60's because they're now considered the new 30. I'm referring to the 80+ year olds literally holding on for dear life. I'm talking about the one that lives next door to me who leaves his house once a day and hasn't had a visitor since i moved in. I'm talking about the old guy that smells so bad when he DOES leave his apartment he makes the entire floor smell of death for hours. It's like his insides have become stale. It's a unique smell that can only come with age. Some say wisdom comes with age; well i say stench comes with age. Especially since this guy is long past the point where anyone would take advice from him. Since he's my neighbor I'm forced to pass through the stench every time i enter or leave my apartment. It seeps from under his door and settles in front of mine.


Here's the kicker. I live on the 8th floor of an 8 story building. Just imagine, for one second how overwhelming the smell is when you get stuck in the elevator with the guy. Granted, it doesn't happen very often (refer to earlier where i mention the fact that he only leaves his apartment once a day). Just thinking about it sent a shiver up my spine.
