The kind of piece that inspires people to step into the confessional.

I have been gifted with powerful nasal abilities.

If a pilot light in the stove is out I’ll know it very quickly

Likes: skunks and gasoline in moderation — close up the former actually burns my nose and the latter gets headachy. Farts my own (but not others).

Top of the list: fresh baking bread, basil and —speaking for a friend—when he did MDMA (Ecstasy) his sense of smell was quadrupled and he could spend hours sniffing his partners genitals.

She was okay with that. Or so I heard.

Worst: dead animals (rat/mouse in the wall). Wet dog. Occasionally cooking pork. Cheeses cultured in old sneakers.

Thank you for sharing.
