Quick poll because this came up on piefed:
How many of you have #synesthesia?
(Synesthesia: stimulation of one sensory or cognitive pathway leads to involuntary experiences in other sensory or cognitive pathways
This often manifests as letters and numbers having specific colors in one's brain, but there are other types as well)

@kyonshi@dice.camp I don't. But I noticed again today that I can not remember any smells. I can recognize them instantly when I smell them, but can not access any memory of what something smells like.

@kyonshi@dice.camp I voted yes because I feel numbers as smooth and sharp, no colors though.
