    Of course you can detect lies using BO.


    Let's say you come upon a fragrant individual. Ask him if he used deodorant that day. If he says yes, he's lying.

    Do you smell what the Rock is cooking?!


    Yes. According to our computer it's your acting ability. You're lying about it.

    It's the Rock's agent, when he suggest that he do Shakespeare, that smells like teen spirit. Or laughs his ass off. Or both.

    @junyo: A bit of movie trivia, if you freeze frame the second Jurassic Park movie while the T.Rex is tearing up what is alleged to be San Diego but which is actually downtown Burbank, you will see a movie poster for "King Lear" starring Arnold Schwarzenegger.


    Now THAT would smell.

    Well, I thought I would add this as I am a repository of useless knowledge.


    The Stasi(East German Secret Police) had a library consisting of sterile sealed glass jars with scent pads/samples which were collected from people. They were hoping to develop the ability to judge who may have done something by their unique aroma. I forget the exact figures, but after the wall fell, they found something like an entire floor of these jars with peoples names on the labels.


    If anyone knows more facts, or I got something wrong, please correct.

    @Eauboy: Well, they mostly smell "fear". My Ex raises Seeing Eye puppies. She had a German Shepard her first year, and she would be in class with Al asleep under her desk, and people would see him after like 15 minutes and start freaking out. He'd still be just laying there, oblivious.

    If only the woman whose husband just assaulted her after she asked him to smell his dick to see if he was cheating on her had had one of these! She could have avoided that whole incident!

    Sylar has the better method: use a supapowah. Then if it does turn out to be a lie, which it will be because everybody lies to Sylar, use another supapowah to kill the person.


    I suppose no good comes from that either.

    Someone should ask the guy who developed this if it really works, and see what pops up on the lie detector.

    If you have to use a lie detector on your significant other, I would say the relationship is already doomed. Without trust, intimacy is impossible.
