Ageusia is the term for loss of taste.

Traumatic damage to the olfactory nerve can cause of lack of smell but you would also need to damage the tongue for the taste.

You won’t do it from eating regular foods, but trying to eat a large enough firecracker might do the trick. It could take out both the tongue and the nerve.

Don’t do that though. It would probably blow the jaw off and make you blind as well.

Your mom.

Sorry. You left that wide open.

…kind of like your mom.

Most of these these new SUVs aren’t huge SUVs of the 90s - like Ford Explorer. They’re basically the new station wagon but barely larger than a sedan like a Camry.

Hold up. I’m GenX. I only hate Boomers.

I got nothing against millennials or younger. I even like whatever they’re calling the new generation with their 67 rotted brains. They’re simple folk, but hilarious.

I had that. I used nicotine to recover from it. Sounds strange but it worked. Low dose nic patch, worn 24/7, for about 3 weeks.

The downside is I started vaping again (very low dose nic) but I got my brain back.

Well, it’s nice you want to support Reddit with your group.

Don’t abandon the subreddit. Make a new one here. Then lock the subreddit with a pinned post pointing to the new Lemmy one.

I got banned for saying something about Musk during the height of the DOGE circus. I don’t know what I said exactly because they delete the comment and then ban you.

I think I said I’d like to see him test his rocket and go to Mars. Which, I guess implies,… something.

My old account was banned from reddit a bit over a year ago. I don’t remember what I said that caused it, but it was anti-Musk.

I used to contribute a ton to that site, but after the ban I didn’t bother making a new account. I just leeched the site using old.reddit and had ad-block on. I found my use was reduced over the last few months because it’s just recycled posts these days.

I’m not creating an account just to browse old.reddit and see memes from 3 years ago.

The equipment was shipped without clearance. I would consider this to be illegal importation, yes? Grab those containers, make them pay a fine, and ban them from doing business in the country again.

Easy.

Mark Rober: I don’t want my views converted to money that goes to the Mormon cult.

I blocked AvE’s channel when he supported the anti-science, anti-Canadian, idiot trucker convoy circle jerk in Ottawa.

I don’t have any money. Crash away. Fuck it.

Kids today with their 3-ply ass napkin options.

The US is such a backwards place.

Guy 1: “Uhhh, too many people are shooting up schools with guns. What can we do about that?”

Guy 2: “I know a guy who knows a guy who can make a drone that shoots pepperballs. We can also install bulletproof doors that lock from the inside and get some armed guards to patrol the kindergarden.”

Guy 3: “What if we enact some reasonable gun laws?”

Guy 1 and 2: “Ba-ha-ha-ha. Fuck off, commie. Jesus gave all’ya’all these guns. Why do you hate Jesus?”

This just in, Canadians hate explosive diarrhea lettuce. 85% polled say “keep your poopy cooties south of the border”.

100% that old people should have to take more frequent driver assessment tests. Maybe one at 65 years old. One at 69, one at 73, then every year or two after. You could probably create a simple driving simulator that tests sign reading ability and reaction times.

I’ve known some older people in their mid 80s with perfectly fine reactive times and mental ability, but I’ve also known some in their mid 60s who probably should have surrendered their license when they hit 60.

The oil is so he can fuck his gun, right?

Americans allowing almost everyone handgun ownership is the stupidest thing ever.

I don’t trust 3/4 of the population with a car let alone a handgun.

Deathmaxxing!
