What's That Smell?

Rumor has it that the water leak on Northpoint is actually sewage from the sanitation plant running alongside it. I told Ken this story and noted that we should stay clear. Unfortunately for Ken, he let a taxi pass him just before the aforementioned spot. And that's when time slowed and Ken rode in slow-motion through the taxi's rear spray of toxic water. All Ken could do was wave his hand across his face like a windshield wiper on its highest setting. But that effort only provides him as much protection as a paper toilet seat cover on a pre-soiled seat.

Being a good friend, I rolled up next to him at the next stoplight. I turned to him, sniffed, and casually said "what's that smell?" Luckily for me, he didn't chase me down to engage in a bear hug. But I don't think I'll be using his shower stall at work anytime soon.
