I can understand "The homeless people were smelling" but the rest bears no resemblance to English. For one example, what role does 'me' play in the sentence?

"that made me all over her" makes no sense at all. The homeless man on the train smelled very bad. I had to stand next to him, and now my clothes still smell like him.
