That stuff stank!

Today a co-worker was talking about her new kittens when she said, “the litter box stinks to high heaven!”

If something smells, but not real bad, does that mean it smells to low heaven? And what if something smells a bit worse, but not real, real bad; does that make it a middle heaven smell?

And whatever happened to stank? It used to be that when something smelled real bad, you would swap out the “I” for an “A” and said it “stank.”

We need a conversion chart on stank-to-heaven smells. Does something that “stanks” convert to “high heaven”?

My hunch is that “stank” is a more middle-heaven smell, whereas “that shit stank!!” qualifies as a “smells to high heaven!” type of smell.
