Do you have any weird smell associations?

I lived in Dallas, and the smell of downtown office buildings there brings me back.

I banged your mom behind a McDonald's once, so every time I get McCravings I think of her.

Smell is the sense that is most associated with triggering memory.

When I was about 11, my friend and I came across the corpse of a homeless person that had been stewing in a culvert for a few days. Corpse was wearing an SMU shirt.

Nearly every time I see the SMU horse logo that stench comes back to me.

This one?

My nana (RIP) always carried peppermints and Dentyne gum in her purse. I was always digging in there to get one or the other. When I smell either one now, it reminds me of her.

The smell of sawdust reminds me of when I was a kid and hung around with my uncle (RIP) in his workshop. I many piss-poor crooked arse shelves.

Sometimes a musty smell reminds me of my first LSU dorm room in Highland Hall.

Katrina is one that I'll never forget

Not really, but pretty often I smell smoke when it's not there. Olfactory hallucinations are a poorly understood phenomenon, but possibly a form of epilepsy.

Every time I smell tuna fish I think of your mom

I love the smell of napalm in the morning. It smells like victory.
