    After covid it felt like ages for my sense of smell to be back to normal. To be honest I am still not quite sure it’s back to what it was. What a weird virus, eh?

    It’s interesting how it affects people differently. When I lost my sense of smell with COVID, bad smells were the last to return. I could smell everything else but couldn’t smell bathroom smells, eggs, skunk, or weed (debatable if the last one is bad or not, but either way it was gone). It was nice, I was hoping to only smell nice things forever, but it came back.

    Tfw sense of smell comes back but all jumbled up so chicken nuggets and poop both smell like fryer greese, so you get mixed feelings walking by McDonald’s

      Haha I have a similar fucked up sense of smell!

      Coffee and cat poop smell the same to me (which is like a combination of the two…very unpleasant. A coffee shop is basically a litterbox to me now).

      You get all that PLUS MORE swapped and fucked up smells and tastes thanks to your friendly neighborhood deadly coronavirus!
