My very hairy dog sat on a previously stood on dead slug.

It was stuck in her leg fur and I had to remove it. I feel slightly sick now.

I think it was more disgusting than when she managed to get her own poo stuck in her armpit.

MumsGoneToYonderLand "Do I win?"

Win? WIN?

No you sodding don't! Angry Now go and stand in the corner, facing the wall, and think about what you've done!

TSK.

"Do I win?" indeed. Hurrumph.

Noticed a sort of rotten eggy smell in the kitchen, over a couple of weeks, and couldn't work out where it was coming from.

Our Flora oil had a paper advertising collar around the top. Wasn't until we'd used enough that I noticed the mouse who'd squeezed its way in and drowned

a boy at school had a trick - he would snort a maggot up his nose and bring it out of his mouth

Why would anyone do that and more importantly how and why did they find out they could do that?!

When I was 7 years old I fell into our neighbour's septic pit (top was off ready to be emptied). I was hauled out , stood at the end of the garden and hosed off. Once it was established that I hadn't swallowed anything I was given a bath in the tin tub and put to bed. No ill effects but something I will never forget.

Seek advice?! Limo drama! 😣

Hey guys, I love reading all the posts on here....I'm not normally the postee if you like!

I have a mini limo drama.....I'm would like to organise a limo for my daughter and a few friends for the last day of term. The average limo is an 8 seater. So I suggested her and her best friend decided who else they would like to invite between themselves. That part was fine, they mentioned this to there friends at school today to then become ambushed as one of there friends who wasn't invited created such a fuss. (It was said between the few not everyone)......

My daughter came home in tears as this child then made 2 of the kids invited to change there mind in going with her.
So....what do I do? Have I done the wrong thing? I'm just trying to give my daughter and end of term treat.

I would never want a child to feel left out and that really wasn't any intention. It's just a limit on numbers.

Other parents are organising limos...not just me. I just feel so sad for her 😟

Lots of slug stories - the worst two being finding a soggy very dead slug in the water reservoir of my condenser drier and finding another one in the oven door. Actually in between the sheets of glass! How the fuck?

I've stood in cat puke in the dark in my bare feet umpteen times.

My son when he was a baby had the runny shits all down my bare leg. I didn't notice until it started cooling down?

I'm always stepping on snails in the dark on the garden path. That hideous crunch-squelch!

And a seagull shat on my head once. I was 14 and mortified!

ShowMePotatoSalad · 19/01/2017 18:01

I was dreading clicking on this thread because I was worried what the most disgusting thing ever could possibly be.

I feel oddly relieved - yes it's minging, but it's not that bad! Grin

PurpleNurple69 · 19/01/2017 18:04

stormy wins for her cat's tinselly bum hole! Grin

When I was about 12 I woke up in the middle of the night and reached for my glass of water without turning the light on. I took a big gulp... then hurriedly spat out what turned out to be a large spider. Gross. I can still feel the sensation in my mouth, several decades later

CatOnMyLap · 19/01/2017 18:08

And now I think of it, our dog once vomited on the sitting room carpet then ate its own vomit up. Watching that made my 10 year old brother barf too. The dog then happily lapped that up too

Eww @ the used condoms extraction! Your poor housemate baggy

Every year I have to pull baby slugs from my cats fluffy tail as soon as she comes into the house :(

Deadnettle · 19/01/2017 18:17

ShowMePotatoSalad I agree now but I was traumatised when I posted the op!

Not only have other people shared things that are a lot more disgusting than dead slug stuck to poodle but I have remembered lots of other disgusting things as well.

I have both a slug and vomit phobia. You'd think I'd know better than to read this thread! Let's just say my half eaten dinner has been put down and will now go in the bin.

DS has been nagging me for a dog for ages - just read him a few of these stories and it has been far more effective than all of my patient explanations that we can't afford one, don't have time to walk one and so on. I doubt he'll ever ask for a pet again now!

My friend once found a dead slug in the bottom of her kettle. AFTER they'd just finished their pot of tea. I have, for several years, compulsively checked my kettle every time before I switch it on.

Deadnettle · 19/01/2017 18:23

I have to make dinner in a minute, before I do I'm going to check the kettle for slugs and the oil for dead mice.

A dog of ours once rolled in a dead turtle on the beach. (Not in the U.K.)
Please imagine the worst of rotting meat and rotting fish combined.
It took forever to get the stink out of his fur, and he had very short fur.

I was desperate enough to bath him in Brut shampoo, bought for the purpose, and even that stink didn't over-stink it.

PicturesJane · 19/01/2017 18:37

OMG stop it !

Only read the first page and I already feel ill. Though I cannot stop reading Grin

I used to live on the village green that was flanked by a river, which flooded regularly. Following one flood, I noticed a sheep, quietly decomposing, on the river bank. Make mental note to phone the farmer to remove.

Later that night I took my dog out for a final walk on the the green. I was heading back to the house, she was followed at a distance. Went in, brushed teeth, cleaned face, got into bed, turned light out. Dog joined me.

Became aware of a tearing noise, and an aroma.

Switched light back on, and found dog gnawing on a putrid leg, previously belonging to the sheep on the green.

Leg, duvet, and duvet cover all in the bin, while bewildered dog wondered why I'd stolen her supper.

Still shudder when I think about it.

My then 5 month old (middle son) ate everything he could get his hands on, whether it was still alive or not. I had to fish wriggling carpet beetles and carpet beetle Larvae out of his mouth. He once ate his potty training older brothers poo.
It didn't get much better by the time he was two, I was pregnant with my third son and he came in from the garden one day with a present for me - half a worm.
He once had a nappy explosion and decided it was as good as playdoh, all over my thankfully closed laptop.
My youngest wasn't much better, sticking his fingers in his pooey nappy, licking them then going back for more!

caz323 · 19/01/2017 19:04

Back in the 1970s, my school friend's Gran opened a tin of corned beef only to find a severed human thumb in it! I kid you not. Apparently, after the horrible accident in the factory, the said thumb had got lost in the system. Makes me feel ill to this day!!

helensburgh · 19/01/2017 19:06

I once came downstairs Iin the dark barefoot and stood on 5 slugs. Bleuch

Cindbelly · 19/01/2017 19:13

I ate a slug once a few years ago for a dare. Envy vomit face
Wouldn't recommend it...
