If somebody offered you $USD120,000 in exchange for your sence of smell, would you take it? (no pain involved, you just wake up and you can't smell any more)
That's the question on everybodies lips, ask the ajumma selling crabs in the corner...
120,000 or your sence of smell? |

I'd take it. Then I'd spend it on tracking down grammar/spelling Nazis, then gunning them down tony Montana style. |

No way, then I couldn't tell when my mom is trying to secretly bake something downstairs in the kitchen and put it away before I come scarf it down.
Can't put a price on that. |

Maybe if I was 75. I could give the money to my grandchildren. |

no freaking way. It's bad enough that you wouldn't be able to smell fresh cut grass, the ocean, old books, new cars etc, but smell is a pretty big factor in taste too. There's no way I'd give up both senses for that piddling sum. |
