The gory details of Verdun are so impossibly horrific they sound unreal. But they’re real. The stench of the 300 day battle - death, shit, piss, rats, gas, corpse flies, rotting men and horses - was so bad, new recruits began vomiting when they got within five kilometres

It's the same pretty much everywhere with rent controls. A story from Berlin:
True in Spain too. Every landlord in Madrid and Barcelona screens the renters now. This is an obvious consequence of rent control. The most vulnerable, ostensible protected by the legislation, are in fact excluded from the rental market: if you cannot be evicted for non payment, then you are too risky a renter.
