Sensational!

Tue Dec 16, 2008, 9:15 AM

You know how people say that when you deprive yourself of one sense, your other senses are heightened? Well, I have a really awful sense of smell - I can hardly smell anything, which is probably why I get bored by food so easily - but when I plug my ears and close my eyes, my sense of smell notably improves! I'm sort of excited to discover this. I'm a huge dork, can you tell? Anyone? And would you check out that pun in the subject line? Gosh, I sure am sensational. Irony? Maybe.

& along the line of being bored by food, I discovered during a psychology lecture that your response to taste sensations depends on the number of taste buds you have. So, what with my addiction to mind-blowingly spicy cuisine, there's a good chance that I'm a giant genetic loser with like 500 taste buds, while you folks hit the jackpot with thousands of 'em. Basically, you ("you" as in the general non-audience that doesn't follow this journal) can get from the contents of a generic pepper-shaker what I have to douse myself in capsaicin to achieve.

I ask you, is that fair?
