I don't use deoderant; I don't feel the difference and I never really cared much about my smell; but my parent keeps bringing it up and it's annoying.

Also, what's wrong with smell? Human smells differ anyway.

I've heard many a critiques of capitalism, but never that it keeps people from dat stank.

smell and stink are different. OP was ambiguous as to whether the smell their parents refer to was stink.

Seriously? OP's parents brought up their smell and you're going to play dumb and act as if we don't know if their parents are referring to an unpleasant odor?

Why play dumb like this? I swear sometimes people just blow my mind with this shit.
