"Can I ask you a question?"

"I haven't left my house in like 4 days. I know this is a weird question, but do I smell?"
"not really"
"ok good. sorry, i know it's strange, but I've just been sitting at home studying and I'm not sure if I smell"
*sniffs again* "no, i really don't think i smell anything bad."

This was a conversation I had thursday with the 6'5" indian guy who usually sits alone and talks to no one. He sat in front of me for our anatomy review and asked this before it started.
