smell the glove

I was in the bank just now and it smelled like all the cafeterias at all my elementary schools. Sort of . . . I dunno, soapy? It's weird how smells stick with you. (I mean memories of smells, not the odors themselves. There are hygiene products available if the actual smells stick with you, folks.) Like every once in a while I get a whiff of something that reminds me of school buses, which have the distinctive combination of foul exhaust and cheap vinyl seats.

Sometimes I smell elementary school bathroom, I think it has to do with wet cheap brown paper towels.

Ick.

Oh, man, I can smell those right now! And they smell more when they're wet!

I've been in places that smell like that cheap-ass school soap. Blech.
