I'm thinking about buying something very expensive. Maybe an antelope.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I can see it now: proposal for a new thread -- Ewwwwwww! 1: What's That SMELL?!?

Along with the much-needed Baconbaconbacon! 1: What I'm Having for Lunch.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

There's a fume smell around my train station that I finally realized smells like bleu cheese. Kind of nasty.

My old station in Astoria was above a bakery. Sighhhhh

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I think Vincent Gallo's got it.

Heh.

I can see the Weekly World News headline - "I had Vincent Gallo's Minotaur Baby!"

For some lunches people have, they could even be the same thread.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

You'd think that would be a good thing.

I'm getting the pig!

Poor shrift. Try not to murder anyone. The props are not weapons.

I work in a brewery. Some days it smells like rancid/sour beer, some days it smells like hops, today it smells like spaghetti.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

My neighbourhood smells like the ocean (not in a bad way) but I can only tell when I'm driving in from the valley. Sometimes it smells like jasmine, but that's tended to be scarily overpowering. The worst normal (non-disaster) smell is passing the Budweiser brewery. Blech. The hops, I guess -- like yeast, but mega-oppressive.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

The hops, I guess -- like yeast, but mega-oppressive.

Nah, hops are strong-smelling, but herby-grassy. The overpowering brewery funk of which you speak is dying yeast and spent grains and fermentative microbial farts.

(also, I have yet to be convinced that they let hops anywhere near Budweiser.)
