Students at West Florence High School, around 80 miles east of the state capital, Columbia, had been complaining about a bizarre odor since August 25, with many reporting that it was making them feel unwell.

The school launched an urgent investigation into the smell, spending $55,000 on inspections and air conditioning repairs. Even the high school's gas lines, propane systems, and air quality had been inspected.

However, the source of the odor remained a mystery.

Eventually, students began experiencing nausea, dizziness, and migraines with some seeking medical attention for respiratory issues connected to the smell.

I uh... know what the title is saying but I'm also pretty sure I'm having an aneurism trying to read it. Is the word 'spray' missing from the title?

I'm sure it's an automatic summary. FTA it sounds like he was spraying Liquid Ass spray, which I understand is truly abominable.

Nothing like aerosol ass directly to the lungs. Someone this immature should probably find a different profession.

Something seriously wrong with this gentleman. We need more mental health treatments in this country.

"My [son's] asthma has been triggered multiple times because of this, and I had to take him to the doctor three times," one parent said, asking to remain anonymous.

Like, there were students at my highschool who released stink bombs a couple times, but you'd think an adult would figure out they should quit the prank when kids started having breathing problems.

I have little to no confidence in the maturity or intelligence of so-called adults these days.

Not a very smart feller.
