What's the most disgusting thing that's ever happened to you?

Let me go first because it happened just now.

My dog, leaning over me as I laid on my side, vomited right over me straight into my ear canal, down my neck and in my hair.

Brand new bedsheets and all.

Thanks for convincing me never to own a dog.

I have had many dogs over many years, I have 4 now and this has never ever happened to me.

I ran over a dead rat with a lawnmower.... the cat had left it under the trampoline in long grass. I moved the trampoline to mow the grass and....🤢🤢🤢🤢 You can guess the rest 🤢🫢

Did you have to clean the lawn mower afterwards? Can imagine there was blood and guts

3 times spring to mind

Changed ds nappy on his cot top changer, folded his feet up to his head and he had projectile diarrhea straight up my front

Walking along a beach shoreline and managed to wedge my foot into a dead fish head which a fisherman had thrown overboard out at sea - I walked a few steps before I realised I was wearing it like a slipper

On the way to the theatre one Christmas walking across the carpark, I skidded in my kitten heel boots on a squished and flattened dead rat

Eww to the rat!

There's a LOT of poo and vomit related things on this 'most disgusting thing that's ever happened to you' thread! 😖

My heart goes out to the women sharing their rape stories. Flowers

Awful I’m so sorry x

Gonnagetgoingreturnsagain · 16/05/2026 20:12

Not me but my best friend. Both she and her boyfriend have trodden in bare feet on a separate dead rat their cat has brought in. First it was her, then a year later it was her boyfriend’s turn. I swear I’d cut my foot off. Or bleach it to oblivion. The cat would be getting yelled at too and not fed. They’re moving this summer.

One incident was crossing a road in Australia. It was between some bodies of water that frogs breed in and thousands of them were hopping across the road. Many got squashed and were distributed across the road. I was wearing flip flops.

Also
Stepped in cat vomit with bare feet
Stepped on a slug with bare feet
Holding baby who had sicked up in my hair and down my neck. Then the cat started heaving. Put baby down and picked cat up to move it to lino flooring. Cats bowels then evacuated all down my front.

Sisublondie · 16/05/2026 20:17

Holding a rope round one of my Shetlands rear legs, while the female vet hacked his testicles off with a knife held in her bare hands…. Watched as she chucked the wobbly, purpley bloodied giant eyeball 👁️ like balls into his food bowl ( I mean, WTF! He was SO not going to use that again!) and onto the fresh shavings, blood and grossly bits……trying not to vomit…. then try not to panic as he started to come round unexpectedly early, trying to untie his legs and get out of the way, as he apparently went down a K-Hole and started thrashing the crap out of the stable, and just seeing his purpley balls ( SO big for such a teeny guy!!) being tossed around and wondering if it was going to be like Biology A Level practical all over again when they inevitably got squished by him…….

Just grim.

shellyleppard · 16/05/2026 20:26

@Gonnagetgoingreturnsagain I just carried on mowing Lol. The grass was slightly damp so it self cleaned 🤣

franksmama · 16/05/2026 20:26

My dog rolled in human shit (it was definitely human because it was surrounded by shitty tissues!) at the beach. Absolutely caked himself in it.

I sent him into the sea to try and rinse some of it off, but to no avail. A lovely woman donated a packet of baby wipes to the cause so I wiped off what I could, packaged him up in a blanket and an IKEA bag and put him in the boot. Cursed him the whole way home then scrubbed the poor bastard within an inch of his life as soon as we got in! The IKEA bag and blanket were sacrificed.

Thatsanotherfinemess1 · 16/05/2026 20:28

Hard to choose between catching my toddlers poo in my bare hands to stop it going on a pale carpet (I was on a really important work phone call and suddenly realised the nappy had come off and she was squatting and straining) and cleaning egg sandwich off a stranger's false teeth (visiting someone else in hospital, he was an oap in the next bed and no staff in sight, he was really distressed and I couldn't say no) , feel sick just thinking about it

gmgnts · 16/05/2026 20:28

A pair of house martins had built a nest high above our front door. As I left the house a large globule of birdshit poured down from the nest and somehow manage to get straight into my eye, even though I was wearing glasses (which weren't even touched by it). Another time I found a naked baby house martin from the same nest impaled on our gate (dead, of course).

Eating a starbucks nut bar on the way to work in the car and a forky taily fell on to my lap out the bar!! Not sure what the proper name for a forky taily is maybe ear wig? Put me off the only gluten free snack I can get at starbucks for life.

Went swimming on holiday and noticed a large human turd floating in the sea so I frantically swam away from it. It wasn't until I got out of the water 10 minutes later that I realised that that a partner turd had washed into the cleavage of my swimming costume (I am very big boobed) and become lodged underneath my left breast. It stank and I had no soap to clean myself with on the beach. At that point, I didn't think any soap would ever be enough to clean myself...

This. This is the worst. Oh dear god.

Thewalrusandthecarpenter · 16/05/2026 20:49

I bit into a lovely ripe nectarine, the stone inside split in half and hundreds of tiny earwigs fell all over me, my body, the chair I was sitting on and the carpet. I had to Google to discover that they were earwigs. I have not eaten a nectarine ever since.

While unpleasant, this pales into insignificance in the light of the rape recollections. I am so sorry.

Mumsgirls · 16/05/2026 20:53

Load of bird shit all over my head and shoulders when on a visit to the Tower of London, Teenage dc found it hilarious

Hamela · 16/05/2026 20:59

I once accidentally stood in a smackhead's giant shit in an alley when walking the dog (opiate users get constipated and then... They eventually shit, and shit hugely). It was absolutely grim. I bleached my boots but got rid of them because I just couldn't wear them again.

Also popped a slug with bare feet, absolutely vomitous sound and feeling.

A rotten liquidy potato hidden in a cupboard make me instantly vomit, which I'd never done before. It smelled terrible.

Avie29 · 16/05/2026 21:05

When DD was a baby i went in to sooth her in the middle of the night, not fully with it grabbed her bottle out of the cot and popped it in my mouth so i had both hands free to lift her out, not realising till after i had put it in my mouth that her nappy had exploded and cover it in poop 🤢 yep i had baby poop in my mouth 🤢.

TheBloomingDahlia · 16/05/2026 21:06

Put my hand into the pocket of dress I’d been wearing all day to find my cat had half eaten a mouse and put it in there (never left clothes on the floor again!)

Accidentally turned off my freezer in August and opened it a week or two later. Some of the meat had turned to liquid and it took several rounds of bleach to get the smell out.

The other day I ate about 20 dried apricots while working and not really thinking. I had the most insane farts the next day and sharted a small but solid poo. But my bumhole must’ve been so wide during the fart from the sheer amount of wind that I didn’t even feel it come out, so when I went to the toilet I couldn’t work out what I was seeing in my black pants and I picked it up and squeezed it 🤦‍♀️

This is my biggest fear. I don't eat brocoli or cauliflower anymore due to finding too many moths and slugs inside.

My worst thing was eating half bag of pre washed salad and then realising there were tiny insects all over the lettuce.

FlipthelidSid · 16/05/2026 21:14

Faecal vomiting which was horrendous but it also ended up in my hair as didn’t manage to hold it back. It didn’t get washed properly until about ten days later either 🤢😞

FuckoffeeBeforeCoffee · 16/05/2026 21:21

I had a really painful spot on the bottom of my back. Looking at it in the mirror I could see a black spot in the middle. After twisting myself like a pretzel I managed to get in a position where I could squeeze it… and out shot a clump of dog fur.

It was fucking gross and I so wish I’d filmed it because it was awesome.
