Scent marketing?

@jsh139 Valerian smells like butt crack.

@jsh139 Maybe boiled brussel sprouts, which isn't the way to cook them imo. If you're still anti-brussel sprouts because of the way your parents prepared them, try this:
get some brussel sprouts, halve them, toss in some olive oil with sea salt, fresh cracked pepper, some granulated garlic, and red pepper flakes if you like a little spice. Then what you do is get some bacon and fry it up until it's slightly less than done, set aside. Put a little butter in a pan on medium heat and toss those brussel sprouts in, turning and stirring occasionally until they’re browned and a little soft. Give that bacon a rough chop and toss it back in with the brussels for a few minutes while you preheat the broiler to high. The final touch is to transfer to a small cast iron or pyrex dish, grate some parmesan cheese on top and broil for 2-3 minutes until crispy. Enjoy loving brussel sprouts forever.

@JonT Dank Sprouts

@JonT Damn, that does sound good. I've just been going off of how my fiance prepares them. Microwave-in-bag for 5 minutes. Stinks up the whole house.

@jsh139 microwave!? THAT'S EVEN WORSE. Y'all (the entire forums) need to come over for a dinner party.

@JonT What also helps is the new clone of brussel sprouts that was developed a few years ago. Much less sulfurous compounds and a lot more palatable. It's taken over the entire crop.

@JonT "Y'all"?? Uh-oh, you're being Texanizized.

@JonT That is really close to how I make my bsprouts. So freaking good. I let the bacon cook through about halfway, leave it in the pan, add the sprouts on top with the garlic, spices, and some flavored evoo. Let the sprouts get a little browned, garnish with a bit of parm. drools

@SIMBM If you've got that sour sulfur flavor in your greens (brussels, broc, etc.) then you should add a squirt of lemon juice to them after taking them off the heat. Toss it to mix through.

I roast my brussel sprouts with chopped bacon. So delicious!

@Mavyn Because cats.

@Mavyn meh branded scent marking speaker dock. Each day at 12am EST, it shoots out a pungent mist to reminde you that there is new stuff on meh! "Oh god, It smells like sewer-ass in here. There must be new suff on meh".

@The_Baron Reason #49056 not to have internet capable devices in the bedroom. Or cats.

@Mavyn Fixed cats don't stink. They can be assholes though. If my cats think I an not waking up quick enough, they start messing with everything on my desk. My young cat will repeatedly pick up my phone by the cable and drop it (only an inch) just enough to be annoying. clop...clop...clop....clop "OK, I AM AWAKE!"

@The_Baron My cat pretends to mark by shaking her tail. But she is banned from the bedroom because she sleeps in my SO's face and makes his eyes red and itchy.
