I get that homeless people should be free to mingle in society but...

In the locker room at the gym some guy was washing his clothes in the sink and his body odor was more than I could stand. I ended up just being inconvenienced by carrying my stuff around with me in the gym for my entire workout.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow Well, what about how I didn't make a big deal out of it and just went about my business? I didn't try to force him out.
