        Bro my roommate once got some smelling salts from his work. No wonder that wakes you up, sniffing it legitimately feels like razor blades in your nose

          i’d pretend to be your roommate but i feel like this is not a unique experience. i took a whiff from about six inches away and wanted to punch whoever gave me the idea to do that (me)
