Competing Assertions
Assertion 1: The degree of divinity in a human is directly proportional to the pleasantness of his or her body odor.
Example (A Savory Miracle): A busboy, while filling your water, tells you that he has skipped a month of showers, yet he smells only of caramelized onions, so intensely that you cannot help but ask him for some armpit hair to top your pork chop.
Assertion 2: The degree of divinity in a human is inversely proportional to the pleasantness of his or her body odor.
Example (Self-esteem from the Sea): An aging actress in your pilates class causes you to leave and apply for a job cleaning catfish just to get some relief, thus erasing your lifelong embarrassment at reeking vaguely of landfill.

Hmm.
No wonder I don't like people.
