MarcM Posted August 12, 2006 Report Share Posted August 12, 2006 Try rubbing the little patch of skin just under your lower lip with your finger briskly. Now smell it. Does that go in the "good" or "bad" column? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Levis Posted August 13, 2006 Report Share Posted August 13, 2006 Watermelon Lipsmacker? Good stuff, but I loose them all the time. Watermelon anything... I got a cool watermelon lip-gloss and a lip balm and a soap. I love the lot of them. Regular watermelons are cool too... but that's taste-wise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanAm Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 Good smells: lilac jasmine gardenia honeysuckle fresh baked bread or cookies bacon frying onions frying (even though I can't eat them anymore) limes gin(because it smells like limes to me) any robust red wine lamb being barbecued fresh rosemary or thyme (memories of Greece) fresh nutmeg or cloves (memories of Grenada) an ocean breeze Bad smells: A pulp mill or an outhouse. They smell much the same. Cat pee Stale cigarette or cigar smoke Fresh asphalt Railroad ties that smell of creosote Rotting chicken Rotting seal (My wife and I came upon a rather large one in Mazatlan) I guess we can generalize and say any rotting carcass.
