Hey, why do they call you Smells?

I actually saw that back when you posted it, but forgot to reply.  I believe it was actually Wombat who turned me on to this strip.  Considering I use vintage clip art a lot in my art work, I find Married to the Sea especially inspiring.

As to why I'm called Smells, I would like to open the floor to additional fanciful explainations, because they are far more interesting than the true reason!

For example:  I was once featured in Ripley's Believe it or Not due to my highly accurate sense of smell.  I'm in training in the art of olfaction, seeking to identify nearly 5000 distinct aroma's, but am currently hung up on 3998 & 3999: differentiating between the scent of Belgian Endives from the North and South regions of said country.

She lives in an economically challenged neighborhood of Calgary and frequently has to step over unwashed street sleepers on her way out the door.  Also the meth lab in the abandoned shack next door.

I once spent an entire day eating only beans, and as many beans as possible.

She's into S&M, now-obscure units of measurement, and not capitalising.

She was trying to diss upon indie-rock's The Eels, while drunk-posting, and the resulting error was charming as hell.

Actually, all the rest of her immediate family has a rare genetic disorder which renders the olfactory nerve useless.  Her nickname refers to the fact that she is the only one with all five senses intact.

She has no corporeal form, she merely wafts from place to place, travelling and communicating in form of aromas.
