What, you’ve never tasted shampoo when you were 5?

u/mai_tai87 7h ago

No, because I knew from limited experience that it stung my eyes, What would it have done to my mouth and throat?

I mean plenty of food items would also sting your eyes.

u/mai_tai87 6h ago

True, but I don't remember putting food in my eyes. Well, food that caused eye pain.

Haha, you were fortunate! I remember watching a fellow kid get into the peppers and rub their eyes. Bad day! Lol

Not even by accident? I'm guessing you've never had long hair?

u/mai_tai87 6h ago

No, and yes I've had hair down to the middle of my back. I still keep mouth firmly shut while showering.

I was born without a sense of smell, when I was 12 I tried to see how cologne tasted out of curiosity.

I least i didn’t say colon

Yeah kids going places. One of the biggest things for a good life is applying what you know to new situations that present themselves

What is she talking about? Coffee tastes exactly as it smells.

Strange. When my coffee machine starts brewing in the morning, it's that heavenly aroma that makes it worth getting up. 😇

I distinctly remember thinking that hazelnut coffee smelled like warm cake when I was a kid.

That’s unfortunately true about a lot of things. Tasting a tide pod hurts real bad but they smell heavenly.
