Question is still valid.

Are you a fucking moron?

What kind of stupid ass thread are you making asking if our blood smells metallic? Who goes around smelling or tasting their blood on purpose?

Seriously, think before you create another pointless thread. All you ever seem to do is just post whatever the heck is on your mind at any given moment.

You probably could have gone on your 1st date ever by now if you spent less time making threads like this.

Lots of angry.

I like this one.

Because of the high iron content. And all the other metals (zinc, etc.)

You can check to see if your blood has the correct iron to water ratio by placing a magnet on your wrist (at the point where you take your pulse.) If the magnet sticks then you are healthy, if not then you are anaemic and should start eating rusty nails for breakfast.

I love the taste of blood, especially if it's her time of the month.

Oh of course I have. And yes I've tasted/smelled blood.

But the way he asked it made it seem like tasting and smelling blood was a daily activity for him, which you can agree with me, is NOT something a normal person would do.

Right click image, check info. I see it's something to do with Metallica... Umm... nope still don't get what this is about? :confused:

Its an optical illusion, stare at it for about 3 hours, its starts to look like some black design on your screen.

Are you a fucking moron? A huge part of your blood content is iron, which is why it smells the way it does.

A pint of blood has roughly 250mg of iron, provided you are a healthy, average height and weight male.
go kill yourself you stupid arse hole

I wonder if an increased perception of metallic taste/smell of your blood could actually be a valid symptom of some illness. Polycythemia Vera or secondary polycythemia in lung disease or hereditary hemochromatosis come to mind.

I was just thinking the same thing.
