In Dog Years



Talking about smells is like when people talk to each other about their dogs:

"Oh, what a nice dog, what's your name?"
"Frodo."
"How old are you, Frodo?"
"He's 5. (That's 35 in dog years.)"

***now in smell talk***

"Oh my God, do you smell that?"
"Eughhhh, seriously, can't they do something about that?"
"Gross."

(The smell never gets named.)
