Or a strong odour break my sense of smell?
I’ve accidentally knocked out my sense of smell with a bathroom cleaner before. Not enough ventilation while I was scrubbing things, I guess. Came back later in the day, thankfully, but was quite disturbing. I don’t recommend it.
Can a really strong flavour break my taste buds?
Not sure exactly about that, but there are compounds that will mess with your sense of taste significantly. e.g. there’s a fruit that makes sour things taste sweet: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synsepalum_dulcificum


No. Asimov’s laws were created as rules for making interesting fiction about robots – instead of the crappy “monster goes on a rampage” style stories that were prevalent before that. The whole point of them is to be insufficient so that you have something to write a story about!
