Same here. Got the flu spray one year and that was that. Can’t even smell my own f@rt$ anymore. Sadly, I miss them...
Sorry to hear that, FRiend.
God made me backwards. My feet smell and my nose runs!

I had a Black woman, who worked for me, who told me she took her kids to the Cemetery and showed them all of her friends who went down to drugs.
I used that stuff about 20 years ago. It made EVERYTHING taste like cardboard, or worse. I never had an acute sense of smell, so I don’t know if the damage was permanent.
What I notice about people with a good sense of smell is that they are perpetually complaining about bad smells. It’s always a gas leak (imaginary), or a skunk, or weeds, or other people (natural smell or perfume), or truck exhaust, etc., etc.
my dad’s 83 and he can’t smell shit.....literally :)
When our Old English Sheep dog cuts one, I have to leave the room. I've been waiting for the paint to curl off the walls and follow me.
Guy calls the county agent because skunks have moved under his porch. He asks how to get rid of them.
The agent says that he's heard lutefisk puts out a smell that drives skunks away.
Guy goes to the maket, buys some lutefisk and tries it out.
Three days later, he's calling the county agent again. "The skunks are gone," he says, "but now how do I get rid of the Norwegians who took their place?"
Yikes! I’ll be sure to avoid that.

I know my hearing has diminished , my dogs have let me know that. On the other hand, my sense of smell is still good, the dogs tell me that too.
In related news, if you can’t smell a squashed stinkbug, you’re already dead.

“That Smell”
Whiskey bottles, and brand new cars
Oak tree you’re in my way
There’s too much coke and too much smoke
Look what’s going on inside you
Ooooh that smell
Can’t you smell that smell
Ooooh that smell
The smell of death surrounds you
Angel of darkness is upon you
Stuck a needle in your arm
So take another toke, have a blow for your nose
One more drink fool, will drown you
Ooooh that smell
Can’t you smell that smell
Ooooh that smell
The smell of death surrounds you
Now they call you Prince Charming
Can’t speak a word when you’re full of ‘ludes
Say you’ll be all right come tomorrow
But tomorrow might not be here for you
Ooooh that smell
Can’t you smell that smell
Ooooh that smell
The smell of death surrounds you
Hey, you’re a fool you
Stick them needles in your arm
I know I been there before
One little problem that confronts you
Got a monkey on your back
Just one more fix, Lord might do the trick
One hell of a price for you to get your kicks
Ooooh that smell
Can’t you smell that smell
Ooooh that smell
The smell of death surrounds you
Ooooh that smell
Can’t you smell that smell
Ooooh that smell
The smell of death surrounds you
As long as none of my other senses were lowered to allow for the increased sense of smell I could live with that.
Reminds me of an old comedy bit on SCTV where they did a PSA about “Ten Signs That You May Be Dead”.
#8 was “Relaxed Attitudes Towards Personal Hygiene”
I’m confused, were there some who didn’t die?
Amazing, simply amazing.
Thank you
“Do you smell that?”
“Smell what?”
“Seriously, it’s gross!”
“I don’t smell anything.”
“You are going to die, soon.”
“OMG!”
Don’t do that to your friends.
