    Being aware of how pedantic you’re being, doesn’t make it any better btw. Specially when you don’t know what you’re taking about.

    Air is a gas and things flow form higher to lower concentration, so smells propagate form the source outwards. Like drop of ink in clear water.

    You have stereoscopic smell. Go outside and follow the smell of grass.

      D’you think I was trying to…?

      flow form higher to lower concentration

      Turbulent flow is quite different to laminar flow, even when you don’t account for one being propagated as waves and the other not.

      Humans do not have smell accurate enough for it to be described as sterescopic. Sorry. Facts don’t agree with you. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

        Yeah. I thought you wanted to talk, not just to parrot nonsense. I would have blocked you way earlier otherwise lmao

          Nonsense?

          Ah, so when you’re talking about how smells work, it’s “if you really think about it”, but when anyone else actually thinks about it and says their thoughts, it’s “parroting nonsense”.

          I just don’t think you like me having disagreed with a thing you said, as smells don’t propagate in the same way sound and light does and I can’t just say they do for your sake.
