I'll go first. I've seen my grandad drink out of date and lumpy milk, without a single gag or screwed up face. I was trying not to be sick.

A man was chain smoking in a beer garden. He was chewing some gum and he'd take it out and stick it to his cigarette packet while he smoked and then he'd put it back in his mouth when done. And he kept putting the cigarette packet down on our table right by us vom

In Disneyland I saw a child just squating in the middle of the path having a wee. The parents just stood chatting away to each other then they all dandered on not even flinching.

It wasn't even a toddler aged child but maybe a 6/7 year old.

At a uni ball, big queue for the ladies so some of us went in the gents. One girl, absolutely mortal, sits on the sink with ball gown around her waist and does a poo in there. All in front of the gobsmacked queue Shock

I'm not a poo troll, promise. It was horrific.

I work in a dementia unit.

Nothing can shock me. Nothing.

A mum with a maybe year old baby who had a stinking cold. Baby sneezed and furnished face with loads of snot. Mum looked for a hanky with no luck. Bent down to baby's face and opened her mouth, covering baby's nose and mouth and sucked away all the mucus. (Stomach winces)

A girl shitting in a pot plant at a house party. Continued her conversation whilst doing it too.

About 24 years ago I was at an anti-nazi league concert in a London park, and saw someone vomit into a plastic bag, and then drink it. It was during the Levellers set.

A stranger ambled into my front garden, dropped her trousers, did a big poo right in the middle of the paved area and walked off like nothing had happened Shock

shrunkenhead · 04/06/2017 23:24

I don't get this thing about vomit and faeces. WHy why WHY wouldn't you get the hell away from it, never mind drinking it, handing it to people, smelling it etc! What makes people do that????? (Genuine question. )

ItsAHardKn0ckLife · 04/06/2017 23:25

I am genuinely on the verge of vomiting reading these...but can't seem to look away... Blush

I was in Farmfoods about 20 odd years ago, and there was a lady walking round the shop picking her nose. She hooked out a huge bogey, played with it between her fingers for a bit, then tried to wipe it on the top of the freezer doors. I ran from the shop heaving. I don't shop there anymore.

Few years ago there was a football match between a Scottish football team and one of the Manchester teams. Must have been a bit of a grudge match because it got ugly and there was some mild rioting.... I was at Manchester Piccadilly station and one of the visiting fans pulled her jeans down and curled one out on the platform. She didn't even wipe Envy (not envy)

Ricky Tomlinson was once sat in my reserved seat in a Virgin train. I hovered around looking confused (in true Brit style) and he realized and then moved to his own seat. Lovely chap. Anyhow, the drink trolley comes around and I hold my glass out only to find his false teeth in the bottom. I headed down the train to return them and we chuckled over it. Bit gross but he was such a gent I forgive him everything!

CauliflowerSqueeze · 04/06/2017 23:31

A woman I used to work with had what must have been some kind of skin problem on her head. She would scratch endlessly at what must have been scabs or loose skin, then pull them down her hair and then when she thought nobody was looking she would eat them. It was repulsive. And it happened a lot.

I've had someone lick their child's earwax and then tell me, "no it's just excess wax not an infection" (child had waxing oozing out their ear)

And a Grandparent suck the snot out of Grandchild's nose by putting her mouth over childs nose then try to give me the tissue to bin that she spat it in after.

Whisky2014 · 04/06/2017 23:38

A guy on embarrassing bodies who had a hole in the side of his face so you could see into his mouth and nasal area. His tongue flapping about and food etc oh god i feel ill thinking about it.
Also a drunk guy on the commuter train who came out of the carriage into the vestibule where I was sitting and just opened his mouth and spewed everywhere. It was fucking vile.

Titterofwit · 04/06/2017 23:39

FatGirlWithChocolate I can tell you that all of the freezers in Farmfoods are defrosted and cleaned on a rota so its probably one of the cleanest shops overall.

My old Uncle often got roaring drunk and threw up almost every time. On a good night he would catch the vomit(almost exclusively beer) in the glass in his hand and then go on to drink it again.

AndNoneForGretchenWieners · 04/06/2017 23:40

Someone I used to work with would put her hands down the front of her trousers, have a scratch, then sniff her fingers. She once then offered the person next to her some sweets from a bag of pick and mix. Yuk.

FatGirlWithChocolate · 04/06/2017 23:48

Titterofwit, I've got nothing against Farmfoods, and I am sure it's really, really clean, and it wasn't their fault..but I get the heaves really easily, so I couldn't go back in because I would be thinking about it and..it could end badly. I could get a mention on this thread ;)

BeeThirtythree · 04/06/2017 23:48

I have cleaned up 'crime scenes' so see a fair share of gross things people have done. Bodily fluids etc don't really bother me.

My grandma was of a waste nothing generation and really enjoyed using every last bit of an animal...eating the brain/hooves/tripe/sweet breads...as a vegetarian I just could not stomach it (pardon the pun) !
