Yeah, it’s not so bad.
Excellent - have I got an idea for a date!!! I can just see it now, us lying around in a pool of purple mimeograph sheets and leaded gas, nostrils ringed with black from sniffing the Jiffy markers…
I used to love the smell of the mimeograph copies when I was in school. There was almost nothing better than a warm copy with that fresh smell… mmmmm… takes me back!
Regular gas stinks, but racing fuel, especially castor blends, smell lovely. They smell even better as exhaust.
It’s the smell of speed!
I love to write, and one of my favorite things to do is buy a new notebook, open said notebook, stick nose in binding, and inhale deeply.
Then repeat, but instead of sticking nose in binding, flip pages and smell the paper-scented wind emanating from them.
Hate it to the point of puking. If I have to, I will put gas in my car, but not without gagging on the fumes. Mostly Suburan Plankton puts gas in my car for me.
