    there’s a reason for that. we filter out persistent smells.

    you don’t notice your own smell, even if you are incredibly stinky. if you are around a bad smell for a few minutes your brain will filter it out.

      You can also always see the tip of your nose, but your brain chooses to ignore it.

      But not everyone is nose blind to their own BO.
