I also like skunk, gasoline at a distance, and dog breath.

On a weird note, I have a really sensitive nose and I am strongly affected by odors I don't like. I can smell milk going bad without opening the fridge. If I smell an odor that's offensive to me, I completely lose my appetite and can't focus on anything but the smell.
Is your super sensitive nose the kind where your sense of smell is so strong you can taste smells and it makes you ill? I have hyper senses (all five, to the point I can get overloaded and have anxiety with too much stimulation. I took medicine for fibromyaligia to try and "numb" me but it had an unfortunate blood pressure side effect.

I couldn't think of anything until you mentioned vinegar. That is something I like to smell and eat and I guess a lot of people wouldn't like it. Thanks for helping me join in the thread

Most definitely...but I thought it was completely normal to taste smells. Isn't it??

Sure it is... if you're a reptile.

Ew, who likes the smell of mildew? There's a guy in my office who stinks up his office with that awful smell every damn day.
