do you ever get phantom smells from your past?
« on: March 08, 2012, 07:24:47 PM »
it's most like my imagination or mr brain playing tricks. but every now and then i'll catch a fleeting whiff of, oddly enough, drinking chocolate. we used to get hot chocolate before bed. this was served in plastic mugs. had kind of a distinct aroma.

could be anything though. your mothers perfume. a quick its there, its gone smell that instantly flashes you back in time  ???

All joking aside, i kinda know what you mean.  I've read that smells cause the most reaction in our memories, way more than visual.  I agree, as I have smelled things that will immediately take me to a different place in my head.

Are they smells from your childhood like the smell of the covered wagons as you and your family made your way into the frontier?

Girls who dont wash downstairs and stink the place out - these smells stick in my memory - every time I smell a "RANK" pussy, it gets filed in amongst the other 100 odd stinky random girls stored in the memory cells.  A woman can be drop dead beautiful, but if you get hit hard with a smell of dead fish that will never leave your brain and leave you unable to even think of that woman sexually.  This happens now and agian and it triggers a fresh overview of all the woman I met with horrible smelling pussies!

yes, it's strange how a specific scent can make your brain flashblack years or even decades.  Almost like for a flash of a moment you were there again.

Yep, sometimes a womans perfume or the scent of Body Butter will take me back.  Bleach residue in a cotton t-shirt reminds me of my Grandpa and formaldahyde in a hanky reminds me of my old pastor for some reason.
