Your favourite smell

    This only popped into my head a minute ago.

    I've spent the last 20 minutes stabbing holes in a leg of lamb. I stuffed every hole with a slice of garlic and some bruised rosemary. I rubbed the whole thing with olive oil and covered it in too many layers of salt and black pepper. The smell off the thing is putting me into some form of dormant state. It's beautiful, and officially my favourite of all-time-ever.

    When I was a kid it was cut grass or the smell off the the roads and footpaths when a sudden summer shower was drying up. Pencil shavings were nice too. But all that is history now.

    Any one else got the one that makes life worthwhile?

    My favorite smell also.


  • Registered Users Posts: 269 ✭✭CL32


    Heh, never had the pleasure of napalm.

    There is something special about petrol though. Lovely stuff.

    When I was younger I remember a mate of mine stood on the turd of what I can only presume was a very, very sick dog. He took off his runner and gave it a sniff and puked uncontrollably. When he finished he did it again and again and again. The soundtrack was something along the lines of:

    Jesus thats.. *puke* My god thats the *puke* I've never smelled anyth.. *puke* I'm never smelling tha.. *puke* smell that *puke*

    Not my favourite smell by a long shot but certainly my favourite smell story.
