Covan was here, December 20th.

Come back later, after he's out of Parris Island.

I read that back in the day, if a person smelled bad, they would cut that person's nose off...


..

Wtf? I don't even...

They would also tie people to stakes and burn them.

Well then, you somehow found my signature, nice job, so time for your prize.............FLOODIANS! ATTACK! Also, those socks do NOT make you look handsome.

That's contradictory.

If their nose is severed from the body, how would they figure out if they smell bad after the said severing?

  • 12.03.2012 8:37 PM PDT

Yeah right. I don't buy it.

  • 12.03.2012 8:37 PM PDT

+1 for you good sir.

Why would they cut your nose off if you smelled bad? That wouldn't fix the problem of smelling bad.

And a female orgasm could cure her hysteria... hence the invention of portable electronics.

Inappropriate. Went a little to far with the butt hole tearing.

lulz, I think he meant it in a different way, like an impaired sense of smell.

That's what I don't get.

How can cutting a person's nose off keep them from smelling bad?

It makes no sense.

That's literally what they'd do.

If I smelled bad, like I haven't taken a shower or something, they would tie me up and cut my nose off.

The hell?

Time to cut OP's nose off...

This is before they figured out that people can't really smell themselves all that well because of sensory adaptation.

They call me graland.

No, they didn't.

You didn't specify a region/country/society or any kind of time period, but regardless I've never, ever heard of such an absurd thing.

  • 12.03.2012 8:42 PM PDT

Please stop complaining about the 'death of a loved one' it's my job. They probably deserved it anyways. Here's a warning, if you keep making pentagrams out of the neighbors livestock I will personally come to your house and kill everyone you love. Now leave me alone, I got to get back to work.
~M.D~

I cut my nose off when I smell things.

Gamertag - Rdog 11

Call me Rdog, not RdOG or RdOG1507. I made that username when I thought it was cool to use alternating capital and lowercase letters...

This thread stinks

There isn't anything to specify. I told you exactly what's real:

I read somewhere that this -blam!- used to happen.


Just like we don't have any core proof that they did, we don't have any core proof that they didn't.

  • 12.03.2012 8:48 PM PDT

How would that help? If you don't have a nose, you wouldn't be able to smell yourself.
