285 A Form Of Huffing.

I used to collect Star Wars figures.  I found the smell of the drying paint and vinyl quite intoxicating, as did some of my contemporaries.  After a while we realized that our desire to sniff new action figures was a mild for of huffing.  The smell of freshly opened toy gives a feeling of euphoria to a lot of collectors.  It doesn’t make it less weird, but at least a person can find some small comfort in knowing they aren’t alone in their weirdness.

    Whats really fun is if you paint miniatures but fail to notice the proper ventilation warning on the can of primer ^^;

    Also, as Nina smells like candy I can see where her clothes would have such an affect on small forest creatures like Brook.

    Hehe. I’ve got a few friends like that. I remember the one day where me and my brother sat down and decided what all the people we worked with smelled like. We came up with some interesting smells.

    You should put “Nina scented” air fresheners in your shop. They’ll sell like hotcakes!

    @ viuey_visarelli: mmm books. old books are better.

    i also like the smell of my new ipod. IT SMELLS NEW. new electronics smell good…..

    Crave: I feel slighted. My iPod didn’t smell like anything… Maybe because it’s a little one.

    Smells are nice ^.^ Pencil smell good, but gasoline makes me feel dizzy, nauseas. Like I’m gunna pass out. I like the smell of bacon, new stuff, letters and picking out the different smells of other peoples family and houses.
