identical unmarked doors

Bro I don’t think you are supposed to look at it to determine which way food goes

I wonder what the implications would be, if every body part were labeled (including innards).

It would raise some pretty interesting philosophical questions.

Thinking about how smell might have developed is kind of cool. Some mutation allowing cells to detect smell (something modern science is kind of puzzled by) then just sending those signals to the brain and saying, you figure it out. I’d bet there is some other property of matter that exists that we have no ability to detect.

Isn’t smell just particulate matter hitting receptors not dissimilar to how taste receptors send taste signals to the brain? I thought science had this stuff nailed down now?

That’s what they theorize. How do you prove it?

Science shit?

I dont know…but I wouldn’t say that’s a good reason to doubt it, for example I don’t know how they proved black holes exist but they seem pretty confident.

You know what the alternatives are, right? either we have two mouths, or we speak with our nostrils and the silent, gaping hole below only unhinges for the consumption of organic matter.

Silent? No no no. The gaping hole makes loud chewing noises while the nostrils merily chat away in a sing-songy, whistly voice!

Good luck speaking when they are clogged up. :/

Maybe the nostrils should be redesigned too.
