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.

Sorry, but some of these have me howling 🤣

I found the detritus from my EX husband’s previous night’s masturbation on the kitchen worktop in the morning. This was an orange with a hole through the middle, pushed into a glass, with semen collected in the bottom of the glass. This still horrifies me now years later. If a bloke wants to do that, not my business, but at least don’t leave it for someone else to find 🤮

MoonWoman69 · 17/05/2026 18:34

Oh God! I had that once. It was everywhere and wouldn't stop pouring out. Stunk the entire upstairs of the house out. Absolutely awful, I sympathise with you there. 💐

Yesterday we went for breakfast at Tim Hortens.

We ordered and while DH waited I ran for a wee as I’m old and have a prolapse. It was quickly becoming an emergency.

Ran into the cubicle and just got my dress up and panties down in time and gratefully sank on the throne.

Some disgusting, vile, piece of vermin had pissed ALL over the toilet seat. I do mean ALL over. I couldn’t get up as I was started weeing the moment my body touched the seat and the wee seemed to last for minutes!

I did my best to clean myself but my dress had soaked it up where it was sat on the back of the seat, it was even down my legs. I’m pretty certain they just aimed it around the rim because it had run down and pooled on the floor. (I did wipe the seat the best I could with loo roll to clean it up)

I know it’s just urine and I’ve had children and grandchildren, and even had an adventurous sex live but I was literally gagging and felt disgusting.

I got out and told DH to get the order to go and got the emergency blanket out of the boot to sit on in the car. I’ve threw the dress straight in a boil wash and scrubbed myself raw.

Asides from the usual baby sick/shit/pee I’ll say decidual cast. Look it up at your own peril.

Teddybear23 · 17/05/2026 19:22

I was on holiday in France camping about 25 yrs ago. I went to use the loo in the toilet block, while I was sitting there I saw a navy blue metal box on the wall next to me. I wondered what it was for so lifted the lid - there was the BIGGEST turd I’d ever seen just lying there. I was horrified 😩

Greendiamondbee · 17/05/2026 19:29

My cat had diarrhea, and my dog ran over and ate it! He then threw it up and ate it again. It happened so fast, I was just glued to the spot in horror.

Not me but XH - told him repeatedly not to play aeroplanes with DS when he was a baby ...
XH lying on his back, laughing at DS (just after DS had been fed) and....yup, DS threw up in XH mouth 🤣

My baby sister did this to me. There's a 10 year age gap. I had her belly down on my feet as I was lying on my back and holding her hands, so she was 'flying'.
It was very unpleasant!

Stepped on sloppy dog shit with my bare foot.
Stepped on a slug and accidentally squished it with my bare foot.
Stepped on the entrails of a dead mouse with my bare foot.

I no longer walk barefooted.

I also have done the dog poo one, and the slug, but not the mouse entrails. Poo between toes is horrific !

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

Wearing it like a slipper made me cackle 🤣

Puglife1234 · 17/05/2026 19:40

We found 4 flees on the dog.
daughter crushed them and put them in a glass of water to make sure they were dead.
just after I picked my glass of water up and drank the glass of flees 😂

Had an operation on my nether regions and was in huge amounts of pain and constipated. Had a suppository administered and literally shit myself. All over the bed. I hadn’t been for 5 days so there was a backlog. I at least had the presence of mind to ask the nurse to put a pad down.
Then went home and because of the pain I couldn’t move quickly but was on laxatives so shit myself multiple times over the following week (was wearing pads) thankfully not as much as the first time.
An absolutely horrific time in my life.

I was extremely ill 6 years ago, in hospital for two months. Shat myself constantly as a) it happened so fast and b) I was often too weak to get onto a bedpan.
This also continued when I got home.
it was awful.

Solidarity!

My cousin screaming at me out of jealousy.

I was doing better in my life at the time than her. She shouted and screamed at me from jelaousy. Then she lied about me, made up something I did, and turned three of my other cousins against me.

Yep thats the family I had.

Same family . I had to go round and see her and her father after my father died. I had to do this one time to sort out something from my dads will.
While i was there my uncle laughed and sneered at me and told his dog to attack me.
This was right after my father died.
Yes thats the kind of family I had

FettleOfKish · 17/05/2026 20:06

It pales in comparison to some of these but sitting outside a pub on a summers day with a friend when a whole flock of seagulls flew over us and released a collective shit. Table, drinks and us all covered. I had to take my dress off in the ladies and hand wash with soap it in the sink, then put it back on wet. Thank god it was a hot day so it dried quickly!

To those who claim ‘what could a Man using the sinks in the ladies toilets possibly see’ the answer is me, in my bra and pants, scrubbing bird shit off a maxi dress.

apokeyweeplace · 17/05/2026 20:07

Well thanks everyone. Some of these stories...
I'll be avoiding salad, most vegetables, apples, cat food, cats, dogs, babies and children. Travelling. Men. Swimming. Using a toilet anywhere other than my own home.
There's lots to not unsee/ unhear 😂

MoonWoman69 · 17/05/2026 20:08

So sorry to read the two rape posts, that's so awful 💐

My contribution -
We used to go to a rock bar in Bradford called Gasworks. Upstairs was the bar and velour bench seating, but they played rock music, downstairs were live rock bands. I'd come up to have a drink and a sit down. The upstairs was about as dark as downstairs. As I stretched my arm out at the side of me, I put my hand directly into a massive pile of someone elses vomit! Ran to the loo, hand outstretched, only to find cold water and no soap! For weeks I had to keep scrubbing. It felt disgusting.
The top half of my right big toe rotted and eventually fell off last year. Took about 7 months in total. I had a blocked artery I didn't know about and when I injured my toe, that's how it was discovered. If it hadn't come away, then I'd have lost half my foot as they'd have had to remove it. The smell was awful while it was sat there dead and decaying. Having to change the dressings every few days at all the stages of decay was revolting. (Saw the vascular nurse in between). The day the top half came off was revolting and a relief all rolled into one!

Stood in a huge slug in my bare feet in the dark, when I nipped round the back to the garage to get something. Stopped short of bleaching my foot but kept scrubbing for days afterwards!

My husband had been away for a week with work. I was on my way to pick him up and suddenly got the most horrific stomach pain out of nowhere, 12 miles into the journey, I had another 8 to go. I needed the loo desperately, knew I'd be passing a pub on the way, so, panicking (and panting), I made it into the car park. As soon as I got out of the car, I had the most massive bout of explosive diarrhoea straight into my leggings. It was that much, it was dragging them down! The car park was packed full of people and I had to nonchalantly go into the boot of the car to retrieve a plastic backed picnic blanket (we never have picnics, we just thought it would be a useful thing to have in the car thankfully!) and discreetly open it, to spread on the drivers seat so I could get back home and shower. I rang my husband to say I'd be later than planned, then drove all the way back home with every window down, I was caked in the stuff. I had bowel issues and episodes for many years, but that was one of the worst.

holachicatita · 17/05/2026 20:18

Pooed myself on a long run, about 7k from home. Feel sick even thinking about the mess when I got home and peeled my pants and shorts off. 🤢

houseofisms · 17/05/2026 20:30

Went on holiday with my parents. Brushed my teeth them my mouth went numb. It was my dad’s piles cream! 🤮

Tryonemoretime · 17/05/2026 20:34

I'm coeliac. On holiday, I went out for an evening meal on my own and the food must have been contaminated with gluten. Just got back to the bed and breakfast, suddenly realised I was about to have a reaction and raced into the unfamiliar downstairs loo, couldn't find the light switch and had explosive diarrhoea all over the place. I cried.

Octagonchecker · 17/05/2026 20:45

I was in the bath with my then 1 year old and she did a poo. It was a mushy one and the whole surface of the water was covered with bits of it, like algae on a pond.

Mamascoven · 17/05/2026 20:46

I made a cuppa one morning, took a drink and felt something in my mouth. It was a spider, and not a small one! Spat my tea out everywhere. Was awful. No idea where it came from 😂😂

Whatinthedoopla · 17/05/2026 20:57

Freshly washed and straightened hair, then DS vomited on my hair

Paytovote · 17/05/2026 21:00

As a young adult. Driving back from uni. Took a big swig of can. Accidently had picked the ash tray can!

Horrendous
