A friend was involved in a nasty accident whilst working in cattle yards. The wife had to supply photos of what he looked like so they could reconstuct his face.
You wouldn't know today but he lost his sense of smell and consequently his sense of taste. Wasn't too bad for him being a plumber but he he said the sad thing is it doesn't matter if you sit down to a bowl of corn flakes or a roast dinner it makes no difference.
Well, for one thing, your **** don't stink anymore.
But I think that'd be the only good thing.
Oh, and you'd lose a lot of weight.
I did a rice fast a few years ago - ten days of only brown rice and sesame seeds. At the end of it I could barely eat I was so depressed about how bland and repetitive it was. And I love brown rice. My wife did the fast, too and could have kept on with it, her first meal afterwards was more of the same. I could have kept it going on pig-headedness, but my first meal was a pile of Chroizos with chilli. Reckon I would have been suicidal and skinny after a month.
Come to think of it, I can't imagine much worse to lose in the senses. Lots of things to do if you're losing hearing or sight, don't think there's a smelling-aid that'll be discreet stuffed up your nose.
Sorry mate, that sounds awful. I guess I'd get by in that situation, but it'd cut a huge hole in my quality of life.
Ian has no taste or smell
I'm not sure if I want to say...Quote:

I'm surprised no one's come out with: "Gee, that stinks... not that you'll notice."
Anyway I'm realising that this is a lot more common phenomenon than I thought. I guess I'd only looked at it from my other medical problems that have caused it. So thanks, it mightn't cheer you up but it certainly helps me feel better.
I was going to say dowse him in perfume (or engine oil), that will make him smell.Quote:

Lost both sense of smell and taste for a few months after a bad cold.
Everthing tasted like cardboard, hot sweet coffee tasted like sweet hot water.....
Oddly no-one did any fart jokes, must have better friends....:p
Funny story.... Simone hates me telling it but you had to be there. Her sister was in hysterics and she was there....Quote:

I offered my other dog a free "get to know me" moment as a party trick one night. Bent over, called her and she obliged her nose to check out the butt. Just as she got her nose close I dropped an absolute clanger that nearly forced a "bonus...".
This drove Gypsy nuts! She sniffed and licked and sniffed some more! Everyone was LTAO.
Then, 5 minutes after, Gypsy wanders away a few feet, starts hacking and weezing and promptly threw her guts up!!!!!
Mybutt 1 , dog 0!!!!!
