![]() ![]() Reading this brought back a lot of memories and they make me smile.īut I guess this story also has something else to it than humor. Sweat-smelling lockers are those of the varsities, lockers that smell like a new book are usually occupied by the studious ones and lockers who smell like loose powder and lipstick are for the Barbie dolls in school. It’s funny because I also used to conclude about what kind of people they are and how they live their lives based on how their lockers smell. Even our lockers in school smell differently from one another too. It’s something that I notice a lot but don’t take the time to really think about. But it’s something that I’m sure most people think about too. The topic of the story is so trivial, smell. I guess being able to relate so much to the story makes it even more interesting for me. We talk in the house just like the family in the cartoon. I didn’t understand it much at first but after researching some of the words, I found it really hilarious. It’s the perfect starter and one would surely be looking for more. Reading this story made me want to read all of Lynda Barry’s work. ![]()
