Oh boy I remember back in the day when people would try to show up wet from the river to go out and look at houses and it's like you're not getting in my vehicle. People do not smell fantastic when they have come out of the river.

The propriety of that somehow escapes me. Standards in our country as to what is appropriate when in terms of dress have gone to hell in a handbasket if you ask me. (Of course, I'm an old fogey so I would think that!)

If their BMI is 23 or less, bring it on.

Some bodies should never be uncovered.

However, wet people can sit on nothing and must not be dripping. Just for the fun of it put the AC as low as possible.
