...thinks Bradford Pear trees smell like butt in the spring when they bloom

I HATE that smell - it's one of the things I don't miss at all about Connecticut

Oh I HATE those things...makes me choke/gag!

[TulipsAndSunscreen]

...feels like sunburn is a moral failing (for myself/my kids - I don't care about anyone else).

[poky]

...has emergency car deodorant.
...doesn't like the taste of beer, wine that isn't as sweet as soda, or coffee without a whole lotta sugar.

My emergency deodorant is in my office, but yeah on both of these.
I also talk to myself and my computer and the cat all the time.

Female Ginko trees smell like vomit. The story in Philly is that the city got a deal on them and planted them everywhere without knowing that they were female trees. Spring smells like the morning after a frat party. Lovely.

I can't stormachtig the smell of Bananas, eggs or mulch.

Female Ginko trees smell like vomit.

We had a couple of these in my town in NJ. If you stepped on the fruit by accident, the smell would follow you like luggage. Kind of an eau d'vomit/feces melange.
But I seriously though most people were fond of the pear tree smell - I'm really quite relieved to find out that I'm not weird. well that way anyway.

I have to thank Heidi for car deodorant.

Apparently Bradford pear blossoms smell like semen?

[GreyhoundsRUs]

Bradford pear trees totally smell like jizz.

Ummm...there's a smell to splooge?

[GreyhoundsRUs]

Hahaha! I have spent too long thinking back on my previous experiences...and I can't recall a specific smell! Something to observe next time

As for the original post...
...hides yummy things from both DH and kids.
...has never had DH sleep anywhere but our bed and vice versa when home at night (even when on call or sick).
...hates having a doorbell.
...needs basically complete darkness and complete silence to go to bed
...cannot stand the ticking of a clock

[TulipsAndSunscreen]

Oh I hide yummy food all the time! And Dh sleeps in our bed, period. I sometimes sleep part of the night with one of the kids but not usually.

[Vanquisher]

...has never had anything carbonated. Ever.

I told DH this, and he thinks you ARE the only person in existence. He thinks that tribes deep in the Amazon rainforest have tried it. LOL.

He was like flipping his shit. Why? Why?? Why???

I mean, beer is gross. But never trying Coke or Sprite or rootbeer in your whole life? Sorry, that's just wrong.

I can totally hear that conversation going down.
