Onions

The other day I bought an onion for a recipe. My girlfirend started cutting the onion and instantly teared up. I took over and teared up as well. The onion was so strong that we only used half of it in the recipe and put the other half in a baggie in the fridge. The next day I opened the fridge and it reeked of onion. The smell came right through the bag!! I threw it out and the smell is still lingering around my apartment. Then today we had Burger King for lunch and all I could smell was the onion on the sandwiches. I think onions now hate me and they are following me around with their smell.
