I went to take my washing in about an hour ago. Had put the peg bag on top of the table outside and it had slipped down between the table and the chair so I put my hand down to get it out. I shoved my hand in something soft and squishy and after a couple of more prods I had a look. It was a dead sparrow, missing eye and now even more mangled by me. Cue me running round the garden shreiking. AIBU to vom even now? Boak.

This thread is DISGUSTING but strangely compelling

Thankfully i haven't had any liquidised mice in the fridge, or fried chicken embryos [boak] however my sister and her friend, then aged about 6, once found a dead baby bird that had fallen out of its nest. They played with it, buried it, dug it up again to play with some more for about 4 days until our mum found out what was going on and threw it away properly.

My daughter ate a slug when she was 15 months. not just any old slug, a great big fat (i would say hairy but it wasn't hairy) grand daddy of a slug. It filled her whole mouth up and she looked like a hamster. And it squirted some sort of gunk in her mouth which was like wallpaper paste.
She was ok about it until I screamed and jumped from one end of the kitchen t' other. Then she screamed too. Then my other daughter (aged 3 then) screamed. I rang the doctor and the receptionist also screamed. She really did. She repeated it to other receptionist and guess what...she screamed too!
The only one who didn't scream in fact was the pharmacist when i got her prescription for mouth wash cos he was too busy gagging.

I had a cat who used to bring me worms. She would leave a bunch of them on the floor by my bed, just where I put my bare feet as I got out. Lovely, it was Grin

unpa1dcar3r - THAT'S IT! That's the post thats made me actually bring up my breakfast.

The rest are nothing compared to that.

My eyes are watering, I'm gipping even though there is nothing left to bring up and I can feel that beauty repeating a few times on me today.

I once found a completely squashed flat mouse under the kitchen mat, its insides were now outside, it was like an anatomical diagram all it was missing were the labels. I had to peel it off. Poor mouse.

When i was about 16 i worked at a campsite. I got sent up to 'the top toilets' (the furthest away, buried in the forest, old old manky toilets) to deal with a blockage.

Found one of the pans to be blocked with 'leaves' so stuck my hand in to pull them out.
Pulled out a bundle of 'leaves' to discover it was a pair of rather solid, dead squirrels.

I then had to return to the same toilets an hour later to clear up all of my own vomit.
