The smell of a cat colony has to be smelt to be believed. It’s up there with the worst smells I’ve experienced.
- jjtheblunt 3y agoThat's an interesting triple entendre sentence build around "smelt", which is a past tense (archaic maybe?) of smell, often written smelled, and a smelt is a little silver fish, so quite stinky, and smelt is liquid metal. That's a rare sentence that pretty much works all three ways.
