Most grim 'yuck' thing that's happened to you

Inspired by a response in another thread...

I live in a block of flats next to a canal. One warm, dusky, summer evening I took my rubbish to the bin store and..... stood on a decomposing rat. It was a monster, I was wearing fabric ballet flats and it went with an almighty pop. I was stood on decomposing rat guts up to my (bare) ankles. I couldnt even take my shoes off as there was broken glass on the floor so had to shuffle back home with rat gut shoes

Anyone care to beat that?

I've shared this before and it's outing because I'm an oversharer. Anyway I saw some liquid on the floor in droplets leading all the way up the hall. I don't know why but I thought apple juice and I tasted it. Just as my cat who was in season waiting for her spay came into the hall wriggling her bum close to the floor and this liquid dripping from her Blush

In Thailand years ago at a boxing match. Went for a wee and the toilets were in a sort of rudimentary cinderblock structure, with no windows and no lights. Me and another girl hovering outside nervously, bloke comes out says girls it's disgusting in there I'd really advise against it. We scouted round to see if we could wee in a bush or something but there was literally nowhere. So back we go to the hellhole...We go through the doorway In the pitch black clutching a lighter and our feet immediately sank into a foul smelling sludge. I had sandals on. No running water anywhere. Went straight back to my seat, grabbed ex-DP and made him leave immediately. I swear my feet burned for about 3 days and I nearly scrubbed them raw

OohKittens · 05/09/2020 17:48

@Penguin81 that is the worst ever!

OldSpeclkledHen · 05/09/2020 17:51

OMG need this! Thanks 😂

GreatestShowUnicorn · 05/09/2020 17:52

@Coldemort id have to amputate my leg and move house! I’m scared of nothing except rats.

I drank a cup of tea with water that had been boiled with a slug in the kettle. Dh made it and I only discovered the slug when I went downstairs and refilled it.

jenthelibrarian · 05/09/2020 17:55

Weeding along behind some garden trellis and kept getting a faint whiff of something horribly stinky.
Noticed that a fairly large plastic tub was full of rainwater, assumed it was a bit stagnant so tipped it over.
A very long-dead and hugely bloated drowned squirrel washed up at the base of the trellis and the stench increased a thousand-fold.
I knew I had to deal with it, but was heaving at the smell and terrified it would pop and launch foul rotting innards over me.
Eventually scooped it up with two plastic sand-tray spades, weeping and heaving all the while, double-triple bin-bagged it and put it in the wheelie bin.
Put the kids' spades in bleach.

In town and walked past an unsavoury looking character who held one nostril and blew out the other. The disgusting yellow contents landed on my finger. I had to get DH to go into a shop and buy some wet wipes while I stood outside trying not to throw up.

Crinkledbeetroot · 05/09/2020 17:58

Faecal vomiting.

EL8888 · 05/09/2020 18:00

Yours is impressive, mine are;
-standing on a slug in bare feet
-vomiting down my own cleavage blind drunk (l was about 19-20?)
-cat running round with slug on tummy, slug then fell off on bed (there is a theme here!)
-fiancé standing on a mouse just wearing socks
-fiancé having a patient with norovirus accidentally diarrhoea in his mouth. He obviously washed and scrubbed his mouth out thoroughly but within hours also had norovirus
-fiancé witnessing a patient deliberately doing explosive diarrhoea onto a response teams. She literally took aim, parted her cheeks and exploded (different incident to above Blush)

pushananas · 05/09/2020 18:01

putting my hand down the side of a bed in a hotel and finding it a pile of vomit from a previous guest.

GreyHare · 05/09/2020 18:02

My delightful dog likes to eat shit, sometimes this disagrees with her (shocker) and she pukes it up, she did it in the middle of the night and I trod in it on the way for a wee, the smell was unbelievable but I was so desperate for a wee, I had to hobble on with it stuck between my toes, I sat weeing whilst retching, it was a joy.

TrufflePioneer · 05/09/2020 18:06

Wow, some of these are just amazing - puts my nocturnal turd-grasping in the shade.

GabsAlot · 05/09/2020 18:08

im so glad im not in the care sector i cant even bare it when someone else is sick

im ok with cats though for some reason-my cat was ill and spewed quite reguarly didnt seem to bother me

Hodgeheggery · 05/09/2020 18:11

I work in the centre of a built up city, walking to work through a load of high rises. Someone must have lent out of the window many floors up and vomited. Landed all over my shoes with splatters of it in my hair. Revolting

EL8888 · 05/09/2020 18:12

@GabsAlot the effects of norovirus causing explosive diarrhoea and fiancés mouth being too close to an uncovered bum basically.

standing on a rat as a shoe reminds me of One Foot In The Grave when Victor stood on a rotting hedgehog and wore it into the bedroom by accident thinking it was his slipper.
yes i have stood on dog diarrhoea in the dark one night on the landing. guess who had to have a shower at 2 in the morning then scrub the flipping carpet

I have a little garden table made out of palettes which I use for potting. This summer I decided to paint it with a lovely sunflower design. It turned out great so I moved it to pride of place under the only tree I have in the garden. Neighbour admired it, and it looked great under the tree, the only downside being foliage and bits of crap would float down onto it, so I'd have to give it a wipe off every morning.

One morning after a particularly stormy, windy night I went out and it was covered in crap. As well as the usual leaves and bits there were these random blobs of gooey stuff.

Went to sweep one off with my hand when I realised it was a baby bird. As my eye got in I saw there were six of them splatted over the table top. Baby blue tits.

Obviously the wind had blown a nest out of the tree and the babies too young to fly were tipped out straight down onto my table top. Baby blue tits. Later I found a 7th on the ground.

Neighbour heard me scream and came out to help me dispose of the little corpses. Looking at the size of them, their feathers etc she reckoned they were only a day or two away from being able to fly.

It was really sad but really yuck at the same time.

On a kettle theme, I know someone -not me thankfully- that was staying in a hotel park. Went to make a cuppa and the previous occupant had shat in the kettle!

Aeons ago, I was in a corner seat on a train when a young bloke sitting opposite tried to chat me up. He was minus one leg, which may be relevant.
I wasn’t in the mood for being chatted up, so after responding nicely enough for a few minutes, I pretended to nod off.

As we were pulling into my station maybe 15 mins later, I became aware of ‘something’ - opened my eyes to find the bloke wanking - and ejaculating 😱 - all over my new shoes!!

How on earth the people just across the aisle noticed nothing, I will never know. They got off at the same station - 2 girls around my age - I did ask, but they had noticed nothing and were (unsurprisingly) appalled

What pissed me off almost the most, was having to throw my nice new shoes away!

ScrapThatThen · 05/09/2020 18:26

Enjoying a fabulous day at Manly beach near Sydney on our holiday of a lifetime. Sitting on the shore letting the waves wash over our legs with my two young dds. Life doesn't get much better than this. DH approached me to point out that two enourmous dead rodent type creatures were washing up and down to and from and touching our backs in the waves.

icelollies · 05/09/2020 18:28

Mine was using the automatic revolving door into the local hospital, and realising half way round someone had had serious diarrhoea and vomiting earlier which had been spread round and round, in my haste to get out I pushed on the door which led to it locking down and I was trapped in a glass cage of eye watering miasma for what felt like an eternity ....

bellmyring · 05/09/2020 18:30

at a BBQ with colleagues, and had to move inside later in the evening due to rain. grabbed a nice corner alcove seat with friends and we chatted away and drank. Noticed the leather was sticky/wet on my skin (shortish dress, commando!), but ignored it. Coming back from bathroom a bit later I see my friend with here phone light on. We'd been sitting in a puddle of cum Angry.

Got a bit drunk that night, and stayed over. In bed my BF was kissing/licking me all over. I didn't bother to mention it to him Blush
