A southern way, often this case, of saying, "man you stink!".
"Wooo, smell you..."

Smell you later 

"Smell you later" is a phrase inspired by Tyler, The Creator’s song “Are We Still Friends?” It's used as an alternative way to say goodbye to someone you love—because saying goodbye often feels like letting go, or bidding farewell to the uncertainty of tomorrow. It is used as a promise that even if you’re parting now, a piece of them still lingers in the air.

It’s not about literally smelling someone (though scent is memory) it’s about leaving behind a trace—a moment, a memory, a feeling.

A way to say, “I’ll miss you, but I’ll catch you in the wind of tomorrow.”

Used when:
– You love someone but can’t find the courage to say goodbye.
– You’re leaving but hoping the universe finds a way to bring you back to them.

I smell what you're steppin' in

Dude #1: I feel bad saying this, but Tim's sister is a total skank.

Dude #2: Yeah, I smell what you're steppin' in. I can't get rid of this aweful rash.

Dude #3: Yeah...wait. WHAT?!

I smell what you're stepping in

I understand what you are saying. This makes perfect sense to me.
Do you understand? I smell what you're stepping in.

I smell what you're stepping in. 

I know what you mean.
Yeah man, the shit is hydro, so it's a little 'spensive.
I smell what you're stepping in. Gimme 2 ounces.
