TiL: Why My Pee Smells Skunky
Pissing Asparagus...
It's a big part of my diet which consist of cruciferous veggies to go with my slab of chicken breast, nearly every dinner. The problem is the foul tar smell it brings when I'm pissing for the next 24 hours. I assumed this was a common side effect but I soon realized this is far from the truth.
Some nerdy researchers at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, did what they do best...

Asparagus contains asparagusic acid, which our body quickly converts into sulfur-containing chemicals that stink. But not everyone can smell the foul smell and for the most part Women don't smell shit...
WTF.. SERIOUSLY?
Oo..This is probably why...
Women are lucky cause they have to sit down and pee, blocking most of the aroma where as men get to fill the restroom with an incredible and pleasant Pepe Le Pew aroma as they share the green stuff with the porcelain Gods.
They discovered 871 variations in the participants’ DNA sequence, known as single nucleotide polymorphisms, on chromosome 1 which were associated with smelling, or not smelling, the vegetable residue.
Asparagus contains asparagusic acid, which our body quickly converts into sulfur-containing chemicals that smell nasty as hell. Not everyone gets a whiff... In fact, the study found that of nearly 7000 study participants, 60% were oblivious to any smell whatsoever.. unless of course they have some other nasty smelling chemical to piss out. Ugh, I can only imagine the experience of this particular study..
Check out the video below and learn a little more information about this genetic mutation some of us have which allows others, like me.. to smell the green stuff escaping out of LiL Wang. While others, for the most part... have "Specific Anosmia" which is another genetic mutation which basically has that "certain" smell receptor turned off.. Lucky Fuckers
Hope you enjoyed the video and find this information rather interesting. Let me know your thoughts, opinions and any creative responses and feedback in the comments section below...
As for me... I found a little comfort in my diet especially when eating asparagus knowing dam well I was bout to get some head. Matter of fact... I did a little study on that as well
... except I passed on asparagus and just got the head
And It Was Good
Happy Holidays
Till Next Time... Adios Amigos

An entertaining write-up on an interesting piece of research published recently. It is amazing just how many individual receptors the body has for various tastes, and smells and how separate genes are responsible for controlling the ability to sense these things on an individual case basis. Thank you for taking the time to write this article and tell us all about what you learned.
As a bonus, and in addition to resteeming for exposure. We are awarding you a small 5 Steem Power deposit as a thank you for creating quality STEM related postings on Steemit. We hope you will continue to educate us all!
awesome sauce.. thanks for the resteem, upvote and extra surprise... appreciate it. Thanks a bunch
