See what I did there? ;)

  1. Accidentally cracking a rotten egg. Actually gagged at this one.

  2. The bag of duck weed I got through the post this morning. I can still smell it.

  3. Removing a forgotten mooncup.

A wound that won’t heal.

Follwrd by a rotting concealed potato.

Are ducks supposed to smoke weed? No wonder they always look so relaxed.

Rotten potato in kitchen .

My dog's evil wind.

As for my smell contribution...

...I offer that indescribable odour you get when the dentist is drilling or buffing off the sharp edge of a tooth. It's like burning bone or something. Utterly foul.

Not sure I actually want to be on this thread. Will hide it!

CounsellorTroi · 04/05/2022 13:08

DB’s Lab’s farts. Indescribably vile.

A chicken processing plant

I once removed a dead carp floating near the bank of a lake I was fishing on. The smell was indescribable. The worst thing I've ever smelled. 🤢 do not recommend!

Washed out a thermos flask that had been forgotten at the weekend. It was still partly filled with coffee and milk. Don’t know how long it had been there but I reckon a few months. The smell was pretty ripe.

Also found a bin bag with wet dog blanketsthat had festered for awhile. That wasn’t as bad but I opened the bag in the open. We are lucky to live near an outside laundrette at a petrol station.

had a purge on long overdue household jobs this weekend

The stench of hypocracy is the worst I find !.

DeusInAbsentia · 04/05/2022 13:12

The smell of cooking kangaroo steak. DH brought some home once, the smell of him cooking iy was beyond horrific.
Just as that faded it gave him wind.....

Kangaroo meat is banned from the house.

All cat related

1.Burst cat abcess

2.Anything that comes out of the ginger boy's butt

Off rice

Mothballs

Boiling tripe

Postnatal womb infection

DappledShade · 04/05/2022 13:17

I'm probably going to sound boring or something but the smell of pot makes me feel sick.

I agree with gone off potato smell, which is awful. Also, duck poo.

SoFriendless · 04/05/2022 13:18

I was coming on to say the smell of bin trucks but that pales in comparison to some of these!

ruby1234 · 04/05/2022 13:20

The dead seal my dog rolled in on the beach.
My car after the seal rolling dog had been in it.

I do recall in primary school we were doing some weird experiment thing with cows eyeballs. It was the last day of term before the six week holidays.
The classroom was in an annexe and presumably the cleaner locked up and that was that for the summer.

September, we all stood outside, teacher put key in annexe door and ushered us all in, we all came back out rather quickly. Cows eyeballs had been left in margarine tubs on the side for the entire summer. We had lessons in the hall for several days 😂
