So I have a tendency to taste smells, and certain words to me have tastes/ideas.
Ex: bugles chips taste like burnt hair. Never eaten burnt hair, but I've "tasted" it.
Ex 2: the name Margaret tastes like raspberry yogurt.
So I'm visiting some family on my more eccentric side, and I make mention of this, and it's most likely synesthesia. I go on to describe other variants of this "disorder" and one is the ability to see music as colors. My uncles a really good musician, and he's like "oh I do that, you don't?"... Apparently every chord is a color to him. So like a song could be A E Fm A or red, black, green, red. He's never thought anything of it, but I was showing him, apparently if you focus and harness that you can gain perfect pitch by using colors as your guide. Very cool.
I guess my version would let me be a very descriptive sommelier...
