Someone at work got hold of a watermelon snackey and I was blown away by how cool it looked. My wallet and sanity hated me since then.
Later on I took a break from keyboard stuff to concentrate on getting married and buying a house, then when I came back everyone was talking about some GAF dude...

Edit for giveaway
My most memorable moments with GAF and/KK have been learning about and getting to appreciate some cool things outside of the MK hobby, most notably learning from Koala that Mezcal is delicious and Krink Paint Markers are amazing.
In addition to that, getting to see the art in resin casting performed at such a high level by GAF made my own artisan journey all the more fruitful.
Stay classy you guys.

First impression of GAF when Grimace came out was how abstract and different the sculpt was from Meowcaps/Furts and how the level of detail just stood out.

Kb-artisans had a mega raffle event not too long ago, and user godlikekitten was raffling off a Nauti-bits Typebeast. I had happened to PM him a week before regarding a possible trade/purchase for it, which to my dismay was not possible :(
By the grace of Korean RNGesus I managed to win his raffle!

Thanks to some luckier folks who have great camera work, I’ve been able to see some of the detail in these art pieces that the community raves about. Each of these must be a TON of work, I can only imagine how hard it is to cast the minute features. They always come out super smooth and clean too. My favourite part? Gotta be the names, and Fvccboi is the one I like best!
Thanks for the generous giveaway and showing us what is possible with resin, a creative spirit, and a lot of hard work!

My first ever raffle win was the snackeys 2.. I was brand new to the community, at this point still thanking Gajible for bringing me in (Now I, along with my wallet, curse him). But to my delight, I won the raffle! Not only did I snag a sleeve as well, but I got one of the famed Bitberry. Literally a HUGE win, and it was my first. Definitely a really warm welcoming to the community. It’s been nice to chat with the two of you over the last two years, hopefully one day we can sip some Gesha coffee together. Thanks for all that you do for the community! <3
Post by: OfTheWild on Sun, 06 January 2019, 13:11:20
Its funny really but i have never had a GAF or a KK cap... Not sure why but its just never been in the cards for me. I of course absolutely love your sculpts and in this day-in-age its really something special to find someone not outsourcing, 3d printing, or straight up copying someone elses concepts. I love the 'low brow art' movement and follow lots of artists on instagram and its really cool to see you bridge the gap into the keyboard artisan community. Lots of unique and well executed caps that only years of experience and talent can produce. Thanks for being part of this group, this family, and I hope that one of these days our paths will cross!
Post by: ziptyze on Sun, 06 January 2019, 13:11:48
The young man began frantically going from table to table, asking if anyone knew what mechanical keyboards were and if they were part of the community. When he finally found someone that wasn’t completely confused by the questions he was asking, it turns out they had a Jelly Key abandoned maze and graciously offered to run home and get it for him if he thought it would help his chances. The would-be groom poured the gentleman’s margarita on his lap and said “miss me with that ****”.
Meanwhile, I had been at a meetup the previous weekend, and some of my collection was still in my car. My wife pleaded with me saying that this was his opportunity for true love, and asking if I could just help out. Well... he overheard and came over and just started begging me while his girlfriend ordered her third basket of riblets. If only I could help him out, he would be able to have a wonderful life and share in the same love that it was obvious my wife and I had. He even paid for our meal in the hopes of swaying me.
Sometimes I think about that couple and how they’re doing. I hope they got their happily ever after. I know I wouldn’t be the same man without the best relationship I’ve ever had... I still kiss my watermelon snackey goodnight every evening before I go to bed.

My most memorable moment with GAF was actually on this black friday!
For context, I've always been bad at raffle puzzles, I remember when you posted an older Fvccboi raffle on instagram and said 'find the form'. I couldn't find it, and was pretty disappointed.
Well, on Black Friday, bunny posted an insta shot of the GAF flash store page, and on KYC there were 8 passwords - I managed to pick the right password first time, go to the flash sale page, and get my first legit gaf win! I was so excited, I jumped up and down, my fiancee thought something was wrong! I couldn't believe I managed that, because I never get those!
After that, I almost got the black friday Fvccboi, but I accidentally added the Grimace to cart instead! I knew I couldn't get 2 of those, so I tried to remove that one and just get the Fvccboi but it was too late. I think I might have possibly made it if I hadn't misclicked. So this would be the new one for the Fvccboi that got away!
Thanks, and it was a fun time!
Post by: smurkcity12 on Sun, 06 January 2019, 13:15:22
The most memorable GAF moment for me has to be listening to your interview on keebtown and talking about this community from an artist perspective. It really put into perspective what it's like to be in yours and other artist shoes and how the rest of the community can affect (or not affect) an artist, their artistic freedom, and how behavior from all of us can influence the desire to continuing to produce caps for better or worse.
Well, that was the most memorable moment up until I saw the IG story of you dancing in pajamas after being sick for a couple of weeks and being driven crazy by not casting. That image is now burned in my mind lol

So who doesn't like free stuff. Plus so many people in one discord channel is always fun anyway. Well I won't giveaway for a TP. Only my second Artisan I've ever owned, and I didn't really own the first one I just bought if as a gift for someone.
Oh boy was that TP an eye opener. The color, the detail. So of course since then I've looked at so many more sculpts, and colorway, and it's amazing to see how much skill and craftsmanship is out there in these Artisan keycaps. It seems I used up all my luck on the TP win, because I haven't had so much raffle luck so far 😅 but im excited to go farther down the rabbit hole.
TL.DR. First Artisan is a TP I won in giveaway, now very into Artisans. My wallet will be sad. The end.
Post by: Topernicus on Sun, 06 January 2019, 13:34:57
I waited with anticipation for a gaffle, but it never came. I found out the colorway was apparently a commission. With determination, I scoured mechmarket and kept an eye on artisanmacros for months.
I then found out that the caps were even more limited than I thought. I talked with jacobsmirror about his. Arson chatted with me about trading for his, but I just couldn't let what he wanted go.
Months later one of my close friends, Eizdeb, managed to get a nuclear variant. I tried not to pester him, but I did give him plenty of 'eizdeb pls' memes. I even photoshopped one of his cap pics into my board.
Out of the blue, he lets me know one day that he'd be willing to trade for one or two very specific caps. Well, I'd hunted down my grail hungr and the white widow keyforge set at this point. Time to get to work!
Thanks to a few helpful people, especially Miotch, I was able to get the grail cap Eizdeb was after and the chase for my grail GaF cap was over!
It was one of the longest and hardest chases for a cap that I've made since joining the hobby, and I wouldn't have been able to do it without my friends. This cap is a symbol of that support to me and will be one of my favorite caps forever.

After a short while, i've now got a meowcap of my own, and my girlfriend and i have just received a pressure pot to start working on our own creative endeavors! KK totally was a part of inspiring me to extend my artistic abilities outside of just drawing. :)
Through it all, i've been in this community for a fair little bit now, and i've made a buncha awesome friends that i'd never have met otherwise - so thank you KK/GAF!

My life got flipped-turned upside down
And I'd like to take a minute
Just sit right there
I'll tell you how I became a fan of a maker called KK
In West Inland Empire born and raised
On the 3DS was where I spent most of my days
Chillin' out maxin' relaxin' all cool
And all playing some Monster Hunter up in my room
When a couple of makers who were up to some good
Started selling keycaps in their neighborhood
I entered one little sale and my wallet got scared
It said, "You ain't winnin' **** so don't bother to enter."
I tried for a win and when it came near
The sale form said "fresh" and had a fruit in the tray
If anything I could say the discount was rare
But I thought nah, forget it, yo homes it's KK!
I
pulled
up to my email in about a day or two
And I yelled to all the invoices "Yo homes, smell you later!"
Looked at my email there was nothing there
So I cried in my room as a fan of KK

--
A memorable time I had with KeyKollectiv was my participation in the KKrypto Puzzle Series some time back. It was both fruitful and frustrating, but through it I actually made very close friendships and I also learned so much about KeyKollectiv's artisan journey. From the early beginnings in your lusting for a brand-new Filco keyboard and a Skull Squadron set to the first Skull Squadron artisan keycap attempt! "Paying Dues before Paying the Rent" was where it all began, and the rest is history. I made it through this puzzle series and ultimately I won the runner-up prize...! A special Meowcap v3, whose colorway is called Guava Beans. Had I spent the night prior to KeyCon 2017 wrapping up the final piece of the puzzle and submitting my answer, I would have won one of the coveted first/second places. This puzzle series, along with the many conversations I had thereafter, marked a big transition in my journey with KK. Since, I have appreciated the work and collected it quite avidly, and I have had the pleasure to call the duo behind it all my friends.
Below are a few photos to illustrate my journey with KK and GAF

Who would have thought you could convey so many emotions over a single universal gesture? I can't help but but wonder if one day digital archaeologists and e-anthropologists will dig that data and study it very seriously. Maybe someone will write a thesis about it and study us as a tribe, maybe GAF caps will become relics by then, maybe this whole thing will spark the next big religion.

The chewing came because of me mentioning the continued price hikes in costs of caps in general.
I still love them, still collect them, still pay happily for them, and still talk (on very rare occasions) with GAF and other makers. My respect for them as not only makers but also people has grown drastically since that conversation.

During this time I was chatting with Kelly, sharing with her a theory that Kudos was GAF. She vehemently denied that Kudos was GAF, tricking me to the point that I was willing to bet a keycap with another member of the community that Kudos was not GAF despite all of the evidence starting to pile up stating otherwise...
Well, I'm glad I didn't end up betting that keycap, and Kelly laughing at me after the reveal was pretty great. All in all good times were had by everyone involved :)

I've only been collecting artisans for a little under a year - and GAF/KK has long been one of those grail items that everyone was working towards. The hiatus you've been upon has only heightened that sense of rarity - so I'm excited that I may potentially be able to score fresh GAF gear now!
First impressions: Whether it's a Kosmonaut or Garbopuss, I particularly love the bold and iconic colourschemes of your caps. While some artisans try and match standard cap colours, your artisans are happy to stand out and boldly be the focal point of any board. Colours like Grabbos Greed or Terry Folds will always stand out - and they look absolutely incredible.
I'm super keen to hopefully add a Fvccboi or Type Beast to my collection at some point... glad to see you're back!

But the moment I saw the piece of GAF was really shocking.
I wanted to have GAF's caps too, and I looking for there.
But it was too hard to find ....
Also, the raffle may start too suddenly,
It was a very difficult barrier for me who was not good at English.
Then the first chance came. Independence Bea TB Raffle!
I heard about Raffle, and I found Raffle link in hes insta.
But, I do not know when to start. people told me tomorrow
It could be 12AM, it could be morning ...
The night i was set at 12AM ... The moment the wait was eight hours.lol
Finally GAF posted this article to INSTA 8am in the morning.
He said Have a cup of coffee and than start Raffle.
I was tired but I'm happy.
I waited for 8 hours and posted a letter to INSTA,
He said, "Let Raffle start soon."
It was the moment when the tiredness disappeared ....
And I wait for you to apply for Raffle,Than to my hobby
The greatest joy has come. Invoice is come !!!!
That night was full of my heart, and I was not tired all day long.
I think he is one of the best Maker!!!
Please continue making good caps and
Please keep stay to be best maker!!
another one!
I heard Your wife is pregnant. I wish a healthy baby is born to be

Although it took a long time to achieve my first GAF since there were many people who wanted the GAF and it was really difficult to collect, I finally get my first GAF "Typerfuse TB" in December 2018.
I hope there will be more GAF collections in the future. I always support you!!

I started a conversation with Kudos on IG and had a pleasant conversation. He was very nice and humble, he told me the process of obtaining a commission from him, etc. I truly appreciate the time that he spent to talk to me, considering that he gets a lot of requests like mine and I wasn't known at all in the community. During that conversation, I looked into how artisan keycaps were made because I wanted to find out why they took so much effort (and costs so much) and how hard it was to craft one. Needless to say, the threads on Geekhack https://geekhack.org/index.php?board=117.0 blew my mind and I appreciate his caps even more.
Fast forward a little, I ended up finding a Taco Smell Typebeast and that was my first GAF keycap. And boy did it blew my mind :eek:, the color separation was top-notch, the color matching with Laser was spot on, it looked better in person and exceeded my expectations! Needless to say.. the Taco Smell became my gateway drug into collecting GAF caps, and my GAF caps tally is at 20+ right now, and I don't intend to stop.

In September 2015 I was able to get these awesome caps that also had purple in them, the quality was improving and it made me very happy that you were continuing to improve.
(http://i60.tinypic.com/10eoowi.jpg)
October 2015, you exceeded expectations with this Shallow Mallow Purple modifier set for my HHKB. It was beyond amazing.
(http://i57.tinypic.com/303jr4w.jpg)
You continued to improve and make amazing snack keys and such glorious keycaps!
2019... HOLY ****, you still continue to suceed and excel with every single day that you cast. You have been doing GAF caps and they are insanely beautiful and show your talent STRONGLY! I love how you continue to make great designs and have that tattoo style vibe in it as well. Your artwork is awesome as hell and you amaze me every time you make a cap. Keep it up bro! Thanks for coming back to Geek Hack and I hope people will start to communicate here more than these quick reply chat servers out there. ;)
Thanks for being generous and doing a giveaway here for the community! Geekhack community. <3

Unfortunately, I have no memories with gaf because I had no chance to get it yet.
first impression was embarassed when I saw it first. it looked metaphysical but everytime I saw it again,i was fall in love with your aestheticsl. Now I just want to get it.
I don't know there is my spot but if you give me a chance to get it, I want to sharing my first gaf picture with all. I want to post the gaf like others. :)
thank you sir~!

My first thought when it came with GAF keycaps was that it was 3D street graffiti, where the sculpts are interpreted in a more comedic way seen through the artists eyes. For example the TypeBeast sculpts remind me of the cartoons we used to watch when we are young, where when the main characters are frightened their eyes popped out. Or the Trash Pandas or Garbo puss sculpts where they both look like they were affected by radiation, growing extra eyes and constantly drooling unidentified liquid.
But what I like best about GAF as a brand is that they retire sculpts in order to constantly innovate the brand with new ideas, with each sculpt staying true to the brand image of the word "Grimey", but never pushing it over the boundaries in making the sculpts look repulsive. Overall I feel that GAF is more of an artist having fun with his ideas rather than a business which caters to the public demand in order to increase sales, and that really should be what the artisan community is all about.

And yes, by the way, i DO have a GAF tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- and even then they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand. Nothin personnel kid

It wasn't until Garbo Puss when I started to truly follow GAF. The sculpt itself was very peculiar at that time compared to other artisans, where I can only describe it as being both strange and balanced. The brilliant colors mixed into a concept of a 3 eyed cat drooling out it's enormous mouth had an unusual appeal which drew me in to following GAF.
I have been following KK since the start, This photo I took reflects my long artisan journey: the watermelon being an Asian fruit that I love, being shown through two different keycaps made from both KK and GAF.
Thank you for the years of memories you have given me, and I am very glad to be able to stand along side as your brand grew.

第一次看到GAF的時候，我還完全不懂這是什麼。
在IG上看到Grimace，長得這麼奇怪，一堆回應著國際語言：凸
直到看到了Garbo puss，怎麼會有如此奇特而又平衡的設計，三隻眼睛加上血盆大口、鮮艷的色彩，從此成為了我玩個性鍵帽的目標。
西瓜是亞洲夏天的特有水果，也是我的最愛，所以我用這張照片表現了夏日吃瓜配茶的感覺。也象徵了從KK到GAF。
感謝你所帶給我們的所有驚喜！

It's a rare thing in the art world for someone to share their so-called "failures" (B-stocks) with the public, but to allow fans to create little keepsakes from them is on a whole other level. Not only was it a blast to make our own magnets, I feel like it gave us a lot more appreciation for the sculpts themselves. We had the opportunity to scrutinize dozens of caps at once, pick our favorites and talk about casting with fellow artisan nerds. At one point we were even challenged to see if we could figure out why the caps were considered B-stocks in the first place...and let me tell you, it wasn't as easy as you might think!
I've been collecting for over two decades now, from Pogs in the 90s to fine art today, and this is right up there with the most fun I've had geeking out over someone else's creations. A truly great time and one I wont soon forget :thumb:

Another very memorable moment was when in discord you gave away a sharkbait garbo for the first person who could recognise an easter egg with the grimace sculpt. In this contest it was discovered that the grimace casts a shadow which resembles a face. It was only then that I realised the sculpt was far more complex than just a random grimey sculpt, and that instead it had been designed much more carefully than I had perceived. It was a very thrilling time…

Paraphrased a bit, but, "Morals are only morals when you stick to them even in inconvenient situations." Believing that that is how things are conducted weighs heavily as a collector of your craft.
From winning my first KK sale, to a suggestion of a Garbo colorway, to the NorCal Meet-Up, to the Seattle, it has always been a pleasure. To a lurker 98% of the time in the hobby, it means a lot that y'all even remembered me due to the few interactions we've actually shared. Thanks. Both of you. :)

It was mid 2017 when I was still only a few months into this hobby. I had recently bought my third keyboard, an HHKB, and I was ready to open it up and Novatouch it. While this task was simple enough I still wanted some reference on how to handle detaching the ribbon cable that connects the daughter board to the main PCB and the best method for popping out the sliders. One of the first results on Google was a post on KeyKollectiv's blog (https://www.keykollectiv.com/blog//redefining-endgame (https://www.keykollectiv.com/blog//redefining-endgame)) and I remember it being a nice read, much more detailed than the r/mk posts I was used to.
Wanting to learn a bit more about who was behind this blog post I continued reading the KeyKollectiv blog and it was then immediately apparent to me that this was an artisan maker. Now, at the time, I didn't know much at all about artisans. I would see endless mechmarket posts looking for artisan trades and I would see them on r/mk adorned on top of a nice custom keyboard every now and then but I had no idea where they came from or even their appeal. But reading the blog I could see there was a great deal of passion behind these artisans and the keycaps featured in photos on the blog looked particularly cute to me. I then looked up a bit more about KeyKollectiv and remember reading somewhere that the maker behind KeyKollectiv was also behind GAF but I had no idea what GAF was. Was this another brand of cute artisan keycaps? This got me googling and reading about artisans some more and I learned that artisans were typically based on a hand carved sculpt and resin cast in a multi-step process, a great deal of work went into making these keycaps indeed! I also learned that people would make a hobby out of collecting certain sculpts or colorways, spending a great deal of time organizing trades and entering raffles to get the caps they were after. I started to understand why a community existed around these keycaps and why people would be so passionate about them.
Fast-forward to the present, and a few lucky raffle wins latter, and I now have an artisan collection one dozen strong! However there still aren't any GAF or KK caps in that collection, hopefully that changes soon.
P.S. That HHKB remains my most used keyboard today.

Then the release of the Kosmonavt V1, directly inspired me to start trying art out again which, fueled with ultra-hype resulted in this! https://imgur.com/a/mB3Xd
KK has always taken time to address any issues with their caps/sales publicly and personally, and more than generous with their time.
Over time Kudos and I became friends and he genuinely helped me through some dark times. Although we may have had disagreements and drifted apart over the years , I still respect and admire KK/GAF/Kudos/Koala and everything they have done in the community.
I don't want to win the cap though, just wanted to share my memories.
Post by: dallman5 on Mon, 07 January 2019, 00:38:26
I've had the great mis-fortune of never owning a GAF or KK (before my time, RIP) sculpt. However, I did get to experience some in person at a meetup last year and was blown away by the sheer level of intricacy and detail that could be present in such a small space and how the colors reflected the details to further enhance the experience.
Welcome back to geekhack and thank you for the giveaway! Though I don't expect to win anything, I've been really enjoying all the artisan giveaways lately. It's fun to read about other people's experiences in the hobby; it makes it feel much more small and connected :)

when GAFs were coming around i was kinda out of the artisan collecting so I never looked much into it but I always wondered who tf was making them, honestly didn't know until now lmao

I remember I had a piece of meat stuck in the back of my molars for about a good month. My breath started smelling, but I couldn't figure out why. Finally the piece of meat came out randomly one day and my mouth was bleeding a lot from where the meat was stuck.

I work in a mental health Care facility. Halfway through the day the entire building (which is quite large) started smelling like wet ****. Now that's not out of the ordinary for the program but the stench was getting more and more potent throughout the hallways where you could actually taste it. All the patients left by 3:00 and the smell was still strong so we looked on the cameras to see if we could find the culprit. Long story short, the cameras caught a female patient who walked out of her group room, down the hallway, and into a nook in the community room, stop walking, SHAKE HER PANT LEG AND DROP SOLID **** BALLS ONTO THE FLOOR, then carry on walking like nothing happened. We had no idea and it was absolutely insane seeing it on camera.

Me and my team get lost, we lose our bearings and are now in the middle of a lot of fields. We find a farm, thinking we can use the farm owners telephone to get some help we go into the farm which was trespassing. We were greeted with a sea of fresh manure on the floor. I'm talking a LAKE of fresh cow poop. There were these stepping stones we had to jump on to get across, doing this with 20kgish backpacks on wasn't easy. One by one we all fell in some of us face first, into the fresh excrement. We had to find little puddles of water to clean ourselves. Jesus we stunk so bad but it was on of the grimiest, funniest experiences of my life. Covered in **** with the BOYS!!!

Little backstory. I have Crohns disease which is an inflammatory bowel disease where your body attacks your gut causing severe pain, inflammation and losing the ability to absorb anything from your food (massive simplification and TLDR). So one of the not so pleasant things that can come about because of Crohns are cysts. These tend to form either on the gut itself or on your ass. I tend to check reasonably regularly as these can be quite dangerous to leave unattended but apparently I missed this one. One day I am drying off after a shower and I feel a raised lump on my ass and upon checking in the mirror using the old peek between your legs trick I see a smallish white lump. Thinking nothing of it I go ahead and give the sucker a little squeeze. Worst. Decision. Ever. In what I can only describe as a mixture between a pressure washer and the ending of a video on certain websites I completely drenched the mirror in the contents of what I now knew to be more than just a spot. It was only after I had stood up and turned around did I notice the several large and now dripping patches of unknown liquid running down my face. I won't go into the smell but lets just say it made my eyes stream and instantly gag. One vomit later and a quick trip to the doctors I had a 1.5cm cyst removed and a grimy as fvck story which I have kept to myself till today!
I hope you didn't eat just before reading this :-*

Little bit of back story - she works as GP going around to aged care facilities doing work and bringing medicine. On the day she was at a age care home for those with dementia and needed 24/hr care and supervision. At this place, in particular, you were told to keep your bags and personal belongings either with you at all times or within the lockers provided.
She had done just that till it was time to leave. As she was leaving she was called in to quickly assist with one of the elderly and she place her handbag (with all her stuff and laptop in it) within the hallway to keep it out of the room of the person she was helping. When she was walking back, she could smell this weird off-putting smell, and turning the corner she found one of the Dementia patient squatted over her bag, using it as a toilet.
She ran up to the patient screaming to tell her to stop, but all the patient did was turn to her and say "why".
Worse is that is she said it was Projectile.
The bag itself was like $200, but it had all her personal belongings (including her work laptop) in it as well, bar her phone. I think she tried to wash the bag out the following day but in the end i think she decided to just chuck it.
ngl after she told me I was crying from laughing so hard xD It's disgusting but bloody hilarious if it didn't happen to you.

A few minutes later a second one crawls across my desk and I start to actually wonder.
I decided, at that point, to crack the case on the computer that this guy said had quit working all of a sudden, and found a nest of about 12 roaches in that case, which was grimey af due to all the fecal matter and such that they leave behind.
I immediately bagged it up and put it in the garage for later decontamination.
When I finally got back around to cleaning it out, after telling the client the issue, I took the whole thing apart while spraying it down to avoid those suckers from spreading into my house. Once I pulled the motherboard out I found another dozen+ tucked away in the case.

Thanks for the giveaway, Gaf. Fingers crossed.
Hope you're doing better from all that medical/dental stuff. Been there, sucks emotionally and financially.

I swear there must be a secret score system that only they have access too that keeps track of how badly they can destroy a toilet stall.

Most grimey woulda had to have been last year. Started out with a pretty standard cold. Had a fever for a bit and thought it was over. I went to take a drink of water the next day and my throat was on fire. I took a pic of the inside of my mouth and it was covered in white puss filled pimples. Over the next few days it spread to my cheeks and lips and started showing up on the outside too with cold sores and puss absolutely everywhere. Couldn't eat, couldn't drink without insane pain. Went to the hospital and they told me they had no idea what it was and couldn't give me anything for a perscription.
I ended up having to get some "slippery elm" powder at the suggestion of my partners mom and made a thick paste of it and try to rub it all over the inside of my mouth and throat without gagging. It was hellish for almost a week and I don't think I've ever felt more disgustingly grimey.

Second thing - when my friend was in middle school he didn't want to stop playing at the arcade when he had to use the bathroom... so he shook a few turds down his jeans (this was the 90s) and kicked them behind the machine. Not relevant to the story but pretty sure the game was capcom's dark stalkers.

A few years back I was working at an Albertsons as a bag boy. One day this lady comes in on a mobile cart and floors it straight to the bathroom. I think nothing of it until 10 minutes later I see her exiting the store and my manager walking my direction. He tells me that I'm gonna have to clean up the women's restroom and I start to panic wondering what happened. He walked me over to the bathroom and creaked the door open and the image of what I saw is forever ingrained into my memory. **** all along the wall, toilet, and floor of one stall, but not just that because it wouldn't be a story if it was just that. The **** formed a u-turn sort of deal into the handicap stall or vice versa so the whole bathroom might as well have been caked in this person's after-breakfast. I asked my manager how I was supposed to start cleaning this and he just shrugged. He tells me to go get the trash can and he would come back with something. I grab the trash can and wheel it over and I see this mother****er with a torn of piece of a cardboard box. He told me I'd have to scrape up the solid bits of **** and put it in the trash can, then mop the floors. cool. A few minutes into the deed and a coworker comes in and tells me it's worse. Another clerk had to clean the cart she was on as she got **** all over that as well. Don't know why we didn't burn the thing or just throw it away, but I also don't know why I had to clean **** with some cardboard. All I know is I do feel bad for the lady, and that I'm more mad that your boy somehow got stuck with the task of playing a solo game of hockey with someone else's intestine soup and only the end of a stick.

1) in college I was living in a small apartment w/just me and a good friend of mine and he would always make sausage+eggs for breakfast every day. We were both lazy af so the trash would fill up and overflow sometimes but like nbd we'd clean it all up or whatever. One very normal day I came back to the house at 12 at night from the library, turn on the light and the house was full of at least 100 fat black flies swarming about and so I freaked out and started trying to kill them with my lighter which wasn't the effective so I went outside to smoke a cigarette and the cigarette tasted like burnt flies
2) I was living on my friend's couch in SF for a month and I was p broke at the time but I went to a $$$ music festival to go see LCD Soundsystem live. I smuggled in a 5th of cheap vodka, my friend brought some drugs. I drank and smoked cigs all day and then took some drugs in the evening before the show and was rolling REALLY HARD so when the concert was over and everyone was just herding out of the place like cattle I started to feel super nauseous and projectile vomited all over this girl who was walking by who (understandably) freaked out and started yelling at me but I was too ****ed up to do anything but groan.

Had this really cool dream that i was swimming in a lake and having a grand ole time. woke up and noticed my arms were wet. Ya see, we drank pretty heavily that night and my girl had thrown up on the bed while she was asleep. My arms were covered in her vomit. and the smell.. that smell! So naturally, I began throwing up. Girl woke up, saw the mess and started round 2 of her yackfest.
it was a repressed memory until i started thinking of what grimey story i can tell. Thank you kudos for bringing this back.

Anyways, I managed to throw up on myself, all over my seat, and soon everyone in the car began to feel nauseous. Shortly after my little brother puked in the car as well. We had to stop over at my grandparents for a change of clothes, and to clean the car seats covered in puke.
To this day, I still do not why I would drink hot chocolate religiously in the summer.

My fellow travelers and I were swimming in a little watering hole that was a short walk away. It was a lovely escape from the heat and was our only opportunity to wash ourselves. I decided to walk upstream with a couple of friends - and came across a large dam about a kilometer away.
It was incredible! It looked deep, and while it was an earthy shade, we may actually be able to get fully submerged, which was a huge step up from splashing around in the stream. My mates weren't so enthused - but I was sold.
I took a running jump from the dam wall into the water, which lay a couple of meters below. My feet hit the ground almost as soon as I hit the water - it was incredibly shallow. I was overwhelmingly glad that I hadn't dove in head-first. That would no doubt have killed me.
That gladness evaporated as soon as I became aware of the water. An inch-thick layer of scum floated on top - thick, smelly, and creamy. It was poop. I waded out as fast as I could - a disgusted icebreaker working through a sea of human crap. When I got out it stuck to me.. I washed for hours, but didn't seem to come clean.
About a day later I came down with a sickness that turned into full-blown dysentery. It took me through multiple hospitals, and I lost half my body weight. Luckily, I survived - and a Grimace would make it all worthwhile!

Once, I stepped on what i think was dog poop. Wasn't actually sure that it was poop so i had to make myself 100% sure that it was indeed not poop. Took of my shoes, put it near my face, and gave it a good whiff. It was indeed....dog poop

We kept the bong (large and opaque) in the kitchen as to not raise suspicion if someone looked through our windows. Incidentally, the kitchen was one of if not THE MOST dirty places in the house. Uncleaned dishes, various rotting foods, you get the idea. At this point it should go without saying that we rarely changed the water out...
Well one day we are practicing our daily ritual; grab the bong, pack the goods, put in some GoT and chill. We have collectively smoked a couple of bowls and just as the bong is passed to me I hear a light clang come from it. Something like ice knocking up against a glass of water but fainter, softer.
Pouring the water out into the bathroom sink, I see little brown twigs swishing around smooth porcelain in equally brown water. Looking down the bong, past the ice catcher and into the pot, I see the cockroaches. How many were there didn't matter, it was already too late. They weren't moving and the smell indicated that they hadn't for some time.
Sorry the essay but this one needed a full explanation. I still gag thinking about it. Thanks for the giveaway and a reminder of my all time lowest.

You see, there was a man already sitting in the stall who had forgotten to lock the door. And for my friend, it was one of those poops that drop immediately as you take your pants off. He was in such a rush that he had opened the stall and without even checking that it was empty had turned his back and proceeded to take off his pants and let loose.
Luckily my friend had pretty good control of his sphincter and he only managed to bomb the man's left shoe.

Upon closer inspection, this was not the sandwich I had brought in this morning. It was not the sandwich I had brought in yesterday morning. It was instead some old, long-forgotten sandwich in the back of the fridge that had been rotated back out into the front of the fridge by an innocent coworker rifling through for their own lunch.
I write a date on my sandwiches now.

Late in the night I stumbled into the darkness. I was rummaging around one of the tables for a drink. I grabbed a water bottle and drunkenly took a large couple of gulps.
Turns out the bottle I grabbed was the make shift bong and I had 2 mouth fulls of heavily used bong water.
Good times.

It drives me nuts every time I cook at her house because the motion sensor lid is less than accurate.
Regardless, she is also an insane neat freak who will constantly try tidying up around you as you try to cook. So, she prides herself on how clean the garbage is with its double layered catchpan and suspension bag frame.
This holiday season I would notice an odd smell which she would say coming from the garden outside the window.
Trying to prep food while everyone was out shopping one day I noticed the smell was especially strong despite closing all the windows, even emptied her garbage and it still lingered.
Then I had a thought, and dismantled her garbage can. It turns out the bags hang especially tight on their frame and the tight corners can easily rip holes in the bag... underneath the spotless catchpan was what I'd say a few centimeters of pulsating maggots feasting on god knows what escaped down there over time.
Trying to lift the heavy frame out dumped a good couple handfuls of maggots everywhere. Luckily her pomeranian was on the case!

My grimey story happened to me while I was taking the BART from Freemont to Oakland a couple weeks ago. It's a Saturday afternoon, so there are just a couple other people on my train. We stop at Union City, and some homeless looking guy gets on and sits a couple seats in front of me. The guy smelled a little sour, but not much worse than the ambient air in the BART. I don't think too much of it and I go back to browsing dank memes on my phone. Suddenly, the guy grabs a needle out of his pocket and sticks it into his arm. He pushes down on the plunger and after 10 seconds, he takes the needle out of his arm and sticks it into the upholstery of the seat in front of him. The guy proceeds to slump in his seat with his head tilted towards the window and starts moaning softly. The moans get louder and louder until he let out a final shriek that sounded like naasfu after realizing he was one-off from winning a clack. The entire train is silent. After a few stops, the guy peels himself out of his seat, pulls the needle out of the seat in front of him and stumbles out of the train.
I think I missed the ETF sale that day as well...

I was working at a tattoo shop for a few years. A new artist started at the shop, he was a scrawny 40 year old dude that had been tattooing for like 20 years. he kept to himself, had his own clients and for the first few months things were fine. Then one early morning, he came in and looked a little under the weather. I asked if he felt ok, and he just grumbled and went to his office. Later, a young female client of his came in to get work done and after a short while, i heard some commotion and then some shouting. I stopped what i was doing and went to investigate.
I walked down the hall to his office and the girl ran out cursing, angry and taking off her shirt and went into the bathroom. I peak into his office to see him throwing up into a small trash can. There was also a huge smeared puddle on the massage table and the floor. Apparently, he had thrown up all over this poor girl whilst tattooing her, and when she jumped up off of the massage table, she slipped on some and fell into the puddle. Apparently, he had been drinking all night, forgot that he had an appointment and had already rescheduled on the girl once before. It smelled so bad, we had to clear out the building and had it clean professionally. The massage table had to be thrown out.
He was immediately fired, and the girl ended up suing him, but i don't know if anything came of that. Surprisingly the tattoo came out pretty decent, it just wasn't finished.

About 4 or 5 years ago, we had a close encounter with the lord at a house I used to live at. This was an average sized house in a very wealthy neighborhood. We were at the very front of the neighborhood, and our house was the eye sore for everyone. It was an ugly eggshell white, and made out of pure cinder blocks. The outside of it looked like the inside of a public school. Just hideous. It was on a golf course, and the driveway connected to a golf course's service road. Just a dirt road that's a back entrance onto the golf course, for trucks and mowers to get onto the course. Along this service road was a deep, muddy, ditch that was infested with mosquitoes. It always looked like my toilet does after a heavy night of drinking.
There were 4 of us living in this 3 bedroom house. We had recently just moved in, and it was our first place that we all lived in outside of our parents' houses. You may be asking, "Well if there is 4 guys, and only 3 bedrooms… where does the last guy stay?" Wow, great question! Well we converted the tiny ass dining room into a room. And no, I wasn't the guy living in there. We made the Brazilian stay in there. The dining room was connected to the kitchen and the living room without doors, there were just wide open archways. We put up curtains over the archways to add some "privacy." Mind you, curtains do not block any sort of noise. His girlfriend didn't appreciate the curtains, but it didn't sound like she minded if you know what I mean :lenny:. The other 2 guys and myself played rock, paper, scissors to see who got the other rooms. The master bedroom and large guest bedroom went to the other 2 guys, and the tiny bedroom went to me. I only had about 4' x 4' of space after my bed, furniture, and desk were all in it. Just enough space for some Rock Band drums, so I was fine. At least I wasn't the Brazilian.
We all settled in pretty fast to the place. The guy that had the master bedroom had his 21st birthday 1 week after we got into this place. He had the bright idea of throwing a kegger at the house for his birthday. He was the oldest out of all of us, so we had no way of getting a keg. Luckily, I was dating a girl that was a few years older than me, so she got us the keg, but she kept saying that she had a bad feeling about this whole situation. We were new in the neighborhood, new to renting a place, and kind of dumb, but we still decided to go through with the plan anyway.
We had a buddy of ours come over and he offered to DJ, so sure whatever. His name was Gal, and we came up with his DJ name to be DJ Seagal. That has nothing to do with the story, but I still think that name was funny. We made a **** ton of jungle juice, had the keg, and made a bunch of jello shots. We ended up spending close to $700 on alcohol, and realized that we couldn't really afford that, so we decided to charge for cups. $5 all you can drink, and you get a cup. You can drink the jungle juice, keg, or whatever. We had our sober friend that doesn't drink handle the money, and then we drew ****s on everyone's hands that paid in Sharpie. It was silver Sharpie too, so no one can fake it because who the hell has a silver Sharpie? Apparently I did. We had everything set up, and we started making the calls for invites.
People started showing up. Then more people. And more people. There was probably 100 people in our living room, and 40-50 more out in our backyard. We had people underage, people in their 30s and higher. We had locals, tourists, and even J1 workers that were from other countries. There were a lot of workers on Visas from Ireland that year. They were out back chanting Irish drinking songs. They weren't just chanting though, they were SCREAMING and CHEERING at the top of their lungs. It was probably all the coke that they brought... They also taught us about dragoning.
Dragoning is apparently an Irish tradition where you have to act like a dragon when you're about to puke. So when you know you're about to puke from drinking, you have to scream "A DRAGON IS COMING!!!!" This then causes a chain reaction of people yelling "DRAGON!!!!" which notifies everyone that the tradition is about to take place. Once everyone is watching and is circled around the person that is about to puke, that person must begin flapping their arms like wings. Then they must puke while flapping their arms like they are breathing fire. It's meant to shame the person from drinking too much, and not being able to handle their alcohol. But that night, people saw it as a challenge.
So let's take a moment to have an overview of how this night is going: There are probably 150 people at this small, ugly house in a rich neighborhood, cars are everywhere, the front yard is a parking lot, people are tailgating, trash everywhere, you can barely move in the living room, people are shoulder to shoulder, there are dozens of Irish guys chanting in the backyard, and everyone is trying to drink so much that they puke so that they can Dragon for everyone. It's an utter **** show.
Naturally there were more dudes than girls, so the testerone was heavy that night. Guys were trying to impress girls, and the beer pong table was packed for that. Guys apparently think that winning at beer pong means they're going to get laid, so arguments started to erupt over rules and cheating and whatever else. Cue the first fight of the night. One guy decided to jump over the beer pong table, and sock another guy in the face over an argument. I don't know what the argument was over, but it ended up in one dude bleeding profusely from his nose. Blood all over the beer pong table and then on to the tile floor. People were trying to get away from the fight, and they were all stepping into the blood. Shoe prints of blood all over the house now. Great. Cue the second fight.
Another guy got pissed that his all white Air Maxes were now blood stained, so he starts fighting with the beer pong player who threw the first punch. Chaos ensues. Irish guys out back notice fighting, and they are like flies on ****. They all start climbing through windows to get inside to start fighting. Conor McGregor could have been at the house that night for all I know. So I start to look for my roommates so we can start telling everyone to get the **** out. All my roommates are TRASHED, and can't even talk. I expected it from my roommate who was having his 21st birthday party, but not from the other two. I'm the only somewhat coherent one, and start telling everyone to get the **** out. Party's over.
No one even budges. Half the people there don't even know I live in the house. My girlfriend had left earlier because she was pissed about so many underaged kids there drinking from a keg that was being rented in her name. So I come to this realization that I'm alone in a sea of ****. I have a bright idea. I quickly go to each of my close friends, and tell them that I'm going to yell the cops are coming and for them to stay. Then I go ahead and start yelling about the blue lights and the cops are coming. Chaos turns into panic and people immediately start jumping out windows, climbing fences, peeling out of the front yard. Some girls start crying and everything. I'd say about 80% of people left. Good start. Bad thing is the 20% left are made up of my close friends and all of the fighters.
I start gathering my close friends and I ask them about the guys that are fighting. They're all guys from a rival school, that just go to parties to start fights. They're just *******s in general. Basically the only way to get them to leave was to physically make them leave. There are about 10 of us inside, all of my close friends, trying to get 8 or so *******s to leave. We shove them outside out of garage. One of our close friends walks out to get in their face. Poor Charlie got sucker punched. Dropped cold in one shot. A couple of us run out, shove the guys and drag Charlie back in. And I slam the garage door shut. One of the *******s begins to DROP KICK our door. I can see it starting to cave in from it being dented so far in. He knows we can't call the cops because we're underage, so he's just wreaking havoc. Girls inside heard these noises and thought they were gun shots. So they started screaming inside, and run outside to see what's happening. They see Charlie knocked out in the garage, and immediately think Charlie is shot. The neighbors have to hear all of this commotion by now..
One of my drunk roommates is over in the corner of the garage, drunkenly trying to crank start our chainsaw to scare them off. He couldn't get it started, so instead he picks up the turned off chainsaw, and then proceeds to walk to the garage door and yell "LET'S **** THEM UPPPP!!!" On that cue, we flung the door open.
My roommate starts running around with the chainsaw yelling. He's just swinging the chainsaw all around. The rest of us start fighting. I start seeing some of my friends drop, some the *******s drop, and then I notice one of my friends pick up an ******* over his shoulders and carry him over to the toilet ditch next to the house. I **** you not, he threw the kid like a barrel over his head into the ditch. He wasn't done yet. He climbed into the ditch after the kid, and continued to hold his head under the water. Essentially giving him a baptism. He wasn't trying to drown him, just scaring him. At least that's what he told us after. The other *******s thought that kid was getting murdered, so they turned around to help him. My friend so that as an opportunity to run back out of the ditch.
He climbed back up with us, and smelled AWFUL. The kid he threw had his Vans fall off when he picked the kid up. When he saw the shoes, he threw them at the kid. The first shoe missed, but the second hit him directly in the mouth. It was the best throw I've ever seen. Eventually the *******s got their friend out of the ditch, and then they wanted to really kick my friend's ass. So they started to charge. Well my friend climbed into his truck right next to the garage, and pulled out a gun. Of course we all were like "NO WHAT THE ****!" The *******s started running, and thank god my friend didn't pull the trigger. The *******s finally left. Then the friend with the gun started laughing, and we were not happy with him. He pointed at the ground, and pulled the trigger. It was a squirt gun.
We started to look over the damages. Charlie finally came to, and only had a black eye. Didn't remember anything. Another friend of mine dislocated his shoulder while fighting. He couldn't move. We took a whole box of popsicles and wrapped it around his shoulder. Then someone drove him to the hospital. No one got cut by the chainsaw miraculously, and my roommate couldn't start it because he didn't know what choke meant. A few bruises on everyone else, but no serious injuries. Girls inside still crying because they think Charlie was shot and killed. They looked like they saw a ghost when he walked in. All-in-all everyone was fine. The house was a WRECK though. Bloody shoe prints everywhere, a few couch arms were crooked from people standing or sitting on them, chairs were broken, beer cans everywhere, puke all over the backyard from Dragons, and the handle of the front door was ripped off when people thought the cops were coming.
Once I started gathering my thoughts, about what just happened, I started thinking the cops were for sure on their way. There was no way in hell that any of the neighbors didn't call the cops, between the chanting, the yelling, the fighting, and the screams of "HE'S SHOT!" and "HE'S GOT A GUN!" I got really ****ing nervous, and just went into my room without the light on and sat there. I started thinking about what I was going to tell my mom for my 1 free call for jail, I started thinking about losing my scholarships, and I started thinking about the night being my fault for letting it happen.
For some strange reason the cops never came. No one called the cops. All my roommates like to think it was because our friend gave that one ******* his baptism that night. He appeased god. Our house was also christened with blood and puke. If it wasn't for all of our religious sacrifices that night, I'd like to think I wouldn't be where I am today.

Friend X was drinking so fast that he choked on it. Instead of coming out from the mouth, it went through his nose. I think you can guess what came along with it. Thick and disgusting green mucus. Somehow he managed to catch it in his cup, and he paraded it around. Following this, the most disgusting punishment for a contest happened

In my early teens, I came down with something in the middle of the night and I woke up with an urge to toss my cookies. It is coming fast.
So I am sprinting to the bathroom, but I am about 2 seconds too late. I grab my mouth to seal the contents, but it's got way more force than I was capable of holding back. My fingers are forced apart and I am now a multi-spouted fountain. The floors are made of linoleum and --still sprinting-- slip in my own grime and landed super hard on the floor. But the beast has been loosed and I am on the floor like a fountain. Crying from the pain. Letting loose like a cannon. It was everywhere.
That is by far, my grimiest story.

She spent about a hour just squeezing it till just chalky stuff was coming out and eventually just blood, the amount of puss that was in there was truly wondrous and I one day hope my body can create something as amazing.

When I came home for Thanksgiving that year, it had been a long day of traveling for me, and those 45 minute trips on Southwest didn't offer much in the way of an in-flight meal (I think I had pretzels and a Bud Light), so we stopped at Berder King before making the drive home. As we stopped in the drive through, there was one car in front of us stopped at the window waiting for their food. An old gentleman who appeared to be very inebriated and homeless, albeit not necessarily in that order, disembarked from the vehicle, stumbled a bit, turned to us and issued a slurred apology, and then proceeded to take a wizz on the Home of the Whopper. The other occupants of the car, who all appeared to be twenty somethings who were in no way related to the gentleman, seemed to think this was hilarious. I always assumed they put him up to it for a free chicken sandwich or something.
Well, the car departed and we got our food. I had ordered a fish sandwich. I was famished, and hadn't eaten since breakfast that day. With the first bite of that sandwich I immediately noticed something off. It was ketchup. Ketchup on a fish sandwich. Grimiest experience of my life. But at least I got to see a homeless guy pissing.

This older lady with long dirty looking fingernails proceeds to pickup the serving spoon, hold it by the head of the spoon,not the handle, and scoop food up with the spoon's head while having her thumb and index finger dig into the food as well.
Why didn't she use the spoon's handle? Why did she even use the spoon if she was going to run her fingers into it either way? Why did she have dirty ass nails? I will never know.

I guess that doesn't sound too bad. But the water was basically dark brown muck and contained the corpes of a dozen or so small rodents and fish. I used a bucket since we didn't have a pump or anything. It smelled horrible and it just got worse as the water level want lower and more of the nasty mud and rotting fish were exposed. Also I ended up getting the muck all over myself so it stank for the half hour car ride home.

Every Sunday you’re supposed to clean the fresh meat counters. But, it slowly became apparent to me that it hasn’t been done for awhile.
They gave me a little scraper and I ran that under the crevices that had build-up. I was knocking out so much gunk outta there it was ridiculous. It was a combination of dried up and congealed blood mixed together with dirt and what-not, that smelled so rancid it was crazy. If you know how rotten chicken smells you can sorta picture it but a tad worse. Probably been accumulating for months lol

Not too long ago, several of my college friends and I took a road trip from the cold north to a popular, warmer spring break destination. Being the college kids that we were, much partying ensued during the five days that we were there. This particular town had a tourist area that functioned as a family friendly area by day and nightlife hotspot by night. Every night we went there, debauchery and grime ran rampant (including women old enough to be my grandmother pouring shots down my throat, but that's a different story). One particular night we were in a club that is filled with people. I had decided that I needed to step out to get a little bit of fresh air. I stepped out, and walked through the nearby pavilion to come across a bridge. This bridge crossed a man made pond where you could feed the fish in it by purchasing food from coin operated dispenser. On this bridge, a woman who had too much to drink was hunched over the railing. I then witnessed the most grimy event of my young life. She proceeded to vomit over the railing into the pond, where the fish came up to feed in the spotlights. All the while a man in her group of friends decided it would be the perfect time to put the moves on. Luckily this was quickly stopped. This grime will forever be seared into my brain, both grimy event and grimy people.
TLDR: Drunk girl fed the fish with her vomit while being hit on by another dude. Spring break was fun :cool:.

At this point, I knew it had gotten real.
I bought a pack of drain cleaners- they're thin flexible plastic rods with barbs that are meant to go about a foot into your drain and snag anything in their path. Before I could even get it halfway in, it hit the obstruction and wouldn't go any further, so I twisted it around a bit and started backing it out. What came out was a massive amalgamation of splooge and hair, kept wet from daily showers where the water would slowly strain through on its way to the sewer.
TLDR: Shower fun times are great, but you're just delaying the inevitable clean-up.

Basically what happened was our office was called to do a welfare check on a house after reports of unsafe living conditions for the minors in the house. At the time we had a few interns and one came with our group. Now this poor college student (we'll call her Stephanie) was dressed for a business casual office attire and was not expecting to be brought along on a home visit. This house was something out of Hoarders. Animal feces everywhere on the floor, bags full of garbage, you name it. We're all carefully dodging things on the ground, then out of nowhere we hear a scream. Poor Stephanie was wearing some open-toed shoes and a cockroach runs right across the top of her toes. I've never seen somebody run while dodging poop/garbage landmines so fast in my life. When her Summer internship was over and we had a lunch party, we played the La Cucaracha song in her honor.

The next morning I woke up and instantly felt the heat and pain on my shoulders. I'd never had sunburn that hurt this bad so I went to check it out in the mirror. I was absolutely mortified with what I saw. HUGE yellow bubbles all over my shoulders and about halfway down my back. It looked like I had thin ziploc bags of flat beer were resting on top of my shoulders. And to top it all off, they HURT. They hurt so bad that I could barely stand wearing a shirt, so my backpack was a definite no-go. I didn't show my parents because I thought they'd make me go to the hospital, so I just grabbed my backpack and decided to just carry it with me, I knew I could just drop it off at my locker anyway.
Every morning once we got to school my group of friends would always meet up and hang out at the same spot until it was time to go inside. I make my way over to the spot, carrying my backpack, and plop it down on the ground and join my friends. All of them are wearing their backpacks. My best friend (still to this day) notices I'm not wearing my backpack and asks why. I told him I got awful sunburn on my shoulders yesterday and leave it at that. I was genuinely afraid of anyone seeing my dark, disgusting secret so I was hoping that was the end of it.
There's something about being a 17 year old dude and finding it absolutely hilarious when your friends are in non-life threatening pain. I was definitely guilty of it, seeing your friend trip and fall is always a good time. I should've known what was coming next. Like Eazy-E, my best friend reaches back like a pimp and slaps the back of my shoulder as hard as he can. The pain was absolutely awful and I definitely didn't keep that a secret. My friends are cracking up, of course, so I figured it was time to show them what I meant by awful sunburn. So I yell out "DUDE, I THINK YOU POPPED IT!" Everyone stops laughing. They're all questioning me about what I mean, what popped, etc.
So I lift up the back side of my shirt and show them. He did pop it, a bit at least. There was still a huge blister, but yellow fluid had started to leak out....They're all shocked and disgusted. Some of them can't even stand to look at it. I heard a few gags, some had to actually walk away. Some are curious, and the friend who actually smacked me is probably the most grossed out of all of them. They are also all telling me they've NEVER seen anything like that and that I should get it checked out. For some reason all of this advice went in one ear and out the other and I just decided to try to stick it out and make it through the day of school. I do, I get home, and decide to take another look. The fluid that had started leaking after the smack has left a yellow crusty trail on the inside of my shirt. It also smelled VERY bad.
For about a week I would just aloe myself up, not wear white shirts and dealt with it as best as I could. The pain went away after a few days, but the blisters/bubbles persisted for much longer. BUT I realized, the area where it was leaking when I got smacked was significantly less compared to the rest of it. So I made the totally irresponsible decision to drain it on my own. As soon as I started squeezing it out, I could see the results happen in real time. I watched that nasty ass fluid drain out and the bubbles deflate. It was honestly SUPER satisfying. It didn't take me that long, and by the time I was done, my back and shoulders pretty much were back to normal.
At the time, I thought I had sun poisoning. But now I think it was just REALLY bad sunburn. So...yeah. That's the story about my back bubbles.

The waitress comes over and flirtatiously takes our order. I am in a relationship at the time so I leave the banter to others and just say "Hot wings and a Hieneken" when she asks my order. We all order various wings, some drinks, and a large order of fries to share. Right after the waitress leaves a couple of my coworkers quickly get to commenting on their opinion on the waitresses' appearance. While this conversation is taking place, I spot an adult roach scurrying across the table. It is so big and so slow moving that I am beyond shock (can't stand roaches) and think I am being pranked. Another one of my coworkers promptly grabs a cup and flips it over capturing the roach. He proceeds to let me know it's not a big deal.
I am left wondering what types of "hole in the wall' places must he frequent for this roach not to big a big issue and share my disgust with the table. While we are going back and forth ,with me loosing my appetite even while I am drinking, the waitress arrives with our fries. I immediately get her attention and let her see the trapped roach, her facial expression is unaffected. Immediately, guy who said "no big" deal lets her know he's seen worse and the roach doesn't bother him. He quickly changes the topic to how cute he finds the waitress. I am left questioning if I am still going to eat here and wondering what is causing the red bumps situation surrounding her lips since she is now delaying the fries being placed on the table.
After the very awkward flirty banter, the waitress places the large plate of fries on the table and I quickly grab what looks to be a hot glistening french fry. As the waitress is leaving the table she turns around, smiles, and says "By the way, I licked one of your fries". It was a horrible attempt at being flirty and I immediately left.
I have never been back to that grimy AF bar.
Thanks for the giveaway :)

but I woke up at dawn and woke up and saw a black object in front of my eyes. Moment! It's clear,
My friend got drunk, got up and **** and did not go to the bathroom,
He was preparing to put a **** on my face.

I somehow managed to resist vomiting on her and the people immediately around us, and wiped the phlegm from my face. I looked up in disgust as she scurried to the other side of the train car. I was still about half an hour from my apartment. My glasses were sprayed with stranger goo. I got off at the next stop and proceeded to disinfect as best as I could in a 7-Eleven bathroom. I walked home.

This has caused no end of trouble. They kick out tons of litter from the slightly overfilled box. They've peed on the floor directly in front of it twice, then kicked litter out of the box to cover it. I've found trails of little paw prints all over the house in what I assume is pee and litter dust. They don't mind the new litter, but they are really giving the old one a dramatic send-off.
Bonus: It's winter and their long, heavy coats have grown in. Poop butt for days, litter clumps in the toe fur, and very smelly everything.
Bonus bonus: The only time the older cat has ever acted strangely was the first time the kitten had to stay at the vet's for a day. He pooped in the entranceway, threw up on the stairs, didn't eat his breakfast, and I'm not sure he left the door alone for a minute until she came home. We had no idea he was so attached to her before that.

About a year ago I took a girl on a picnic date with two other couples. We went out to a nice, large park, where the weather was literally perfect - a nice cool summer breeze, where the sun was lightly glowing on our day. We set up the picnic blanket under a tree and I had bought my date's favorite food - sushi. I love sushi too, and we were having a great time chatting away. As she was telling me a story, I felt two 'plops' on my lap - she stops telling her story and is looking at me, mouth wide open in complete shock. I look down at my lap, and well... if you didn't catch the context, a bird decided to relieve itself right above me. Everyone else notices I just got pooped on by a troll bird and is dying of laughter. My date, as unsure of what to do as I am, tries to defuse the situation and says, "I am so sorry!" I don't remember how I reacted (maybe my brain signed off its account to save the remaining shreds of dignity I had left), but I told her I'd be right back to wash off, thinking "Why are you apologizing? That bird needs to apologize... with its life." There were no restaurants, stores, or even porta-potties nearby, so I had to do quite the trek to spot a Coldstone Creamery that ultimately had no soap in their bathroom anyways. I eventually bought her some ice cream and had to walk back, feeling defeated and Grimey As F...frogs.
Was that the most embarrassing date I've ever been on? Nope... but that's a story for another time.

Turned out I had gotten bitten by bot flies in the beginning of the summer and I had 5 larvae in various stages of starting to show and emerge on my back. Not fun waiting till the next day to get them extracted. Only good thing was I didn't see them till late the first night. Bot Fly and youtube is not your friend.

Our back exit has its own mini alley, probably only 10 feet long. Lots of times we get homeless people that sleep there, but we dont mind because we would rather have them somewhere safe.
Unless it's Jamie.
One night we're closing up shop and we hear all this banging around coming from our little alley way but try to ignore it. After 20 minutes of constant noise we finally open the door slowly and see some homeless guy drunkenly trying to waffle stomp his poop down the drain.
He has a half bottle of vodka in his hand and his pants are halfway down still.
We tell him to leave, he grunts and continues to stomp on his chunky mess.
Dont know what to do, so we call the cops.
When they finally get there, we briefly explain the situation and walk them to our back exit.
They slowly make their way, taking cop precautions or whatever. As they open the door and see the hobo passed out, almost naked, laying in his ****, they just say, "Ohhh, it's just Jamie."
JUST JAMIE?!?
WHAT DO YOU MEAN JUST JAMIE
He talks into his walkie and repeats "nevermind. Its just jamie, guys"
And they try to wake him up and take him away.
After this, Jamie showed up multiple times to use our store as his toilet.
Many times in our alley way.
Once in front of our store, but at least it wasn't in front of the door.
Another time in our plants.
Screw you Jamie

I worked at a summer camp where I taught video game design to kids 7-17. We have new students every week, since the camp only lasts 5 days. Every Monday morning, we have to stand up and introduce ourselves and lay down the rules for the camp and what we expect. What we didn't expect was what happened next. A student, I think 11 years old, sitting in a sea of other children, just vomits. Doesn't stand up, doesn't move, just chucks his stomach. It gets on a couple kids a little, and they all run to the bathroom. We clear all the kids out, into the room we're supposed to go in for our camp. I'm outside with another instructor cleaning it up, because everyone else is corralling the kids. I don't know why I was left with the job of cleaning the puke from the carpet, but there I was. Unfortunately, this also meant I had to help clean the kid, who looked understandably traumatized. I don't remember what happened to him, but our director called his parents instantly.
Now this day was normal after that. I had to take a small break later on, along with a couple coworkers. Company policy and all, I don't know why. I go to sit down on a bench, and I put my hands down on the bench on either side of me. I feel something kinda sticky with my right hand, but camp is exhausting and I want to take a break so I'm not thinking much of it. Finally when it comes time to stand up, I look down at what was stickyish. I see a brownish-red stain in the shape of a pair of jeans with a butt inside them. I instantly feel the smell of blood hit my nose as I finally pay attention to what's going on next to me. I gag and rush right to the bathroom to get this god damned feeling and smell off of my body and as far away as possible. I didn't feel clean for the entire day after that, and had to get some sanitary gloves to clean that bench so no kids sat in it. I'm still gagging thinking about it.
Kids are the worst, that's my lesson.

Approaching the house a stench could be smelled, which only got more intense the further into the house you traversed. The person occupying the house had allowed it to become a breeding ground for cats, and about 40 or so cats had inhabited the house. As a result, cat feces lined a number of the rooms and covered large sections of the floor. Boy, was it both a horrendous sight and an assault on the nostrils...
Thanks for the opportunity GAF and good luck to everyone else!

I had to walk through the landfill/waste, my boots and pants would be covered in whatever was on the ground. Usually muddy filth. Mixed with rain and snow, what have you. It was always the most horrible smells. Sulfur daily mixed with other things. The worst is by far feces, which you can imagine how bad it was. (Especially from all of the stories others are telling.) It was always so dusty. The truck was extremely filthy, no way to keep it clean inside or out. Port o potties wern't always available. So we had to go whenever we could find an area that no one was looking at. I pretty much always felt dirty. Hand sanitizer wasnt even an idea to use, except when eating lunch. Anyways, I’d have to walk around the truck and sometimes climb up in the containers and clear out any stuck or frozen trash left behind. It was very dirty and grimey every day. It was a hard and messy job hence why I no longer do it. It was a good learning experience though. Also, fun to drive the big commercial trucks sometimes.

I've had several grimey experiences but probably one of the funniest (now) is a field trip I had at 9th grade.
So we went on a field trip with my class and as teens, we had some booze, some herbs and some snuff too. After a long day of excursions, we started to party and a classmate of mine wanted to have snuff as he had never done it. In the tipsy state he already was, he figured a big line of that **** would be good. He got half way but it got into his throat and he started gagging and puked. But a real stream of puke. He vomited onto one's kids shoes and that dude also started gagging and puked too - right on the first dudes back...
Here's an illustration how it went down:

Occasionally they bring me dead mice, rats, small bugs ect as a sign of gratitude.
Recently they've been brining me dead mice but they bring parts of it instead of leaving behind a whole dead mouse. Now I find bits of dismembered mice all over the yard every now and then. If I'm not careful I end up stepping on them and have bits of mice stuck to my boots :(
I had to sweep the yard today and ended up with a bunch of mice heads

Heres a story about my best friend we like to call;
The Poo-sock story
So my buddy Matt and I would hang out 'late night' after the bar closed back at his place and drinks beers in his garage until the sun came up. We did this every Tuesday night for years.
One sweltering July evening we were all standing around his garage doing out best impressions of a the boys from King of the Hill when at some point my buddy Matt decided he was feeling a little squishy in the pants. You guys know what i'm talking about, your run of the mill 'swamp ass' from sweat and grime thats been building up all day. Thinking nothing further of it, he headed to bed and decided he would give his soggy ass crack a quick wipe with his sock on its way to the hamper and passed out in bed next to his girlfriend.
The next morning said girlfriend wakes up and finds a nice white sock covered in skid marks on the floor and wonders wtf happened. Of course Matt explains that he thought it was sweat, no big whoop he says, "the ass moisture must have made the poop mobile.. just toss it in the laundry". This tends to be something she's used to so as funny as it is, their lives go on normally.
But wait theres more! 3 days later Matt gets home from running errands... normal stuff like grocery store, home depot, burgers for lunch. He heads to take a shower after a day of heat wave and upon dropping his cargo shorts on the floor he notices a rather large brown stain in the seat of his pants. And that is has soaked through to the outside world. 3 days he has determined that he's been walking around town doing things with a giant **** stain on his butt.
-true story

Walking downtown late at night and there was a bum right in front of us that stopped and whipped it out.
Proceeds to pee right in the middle of the sidewalk as we both walk on the sides and avoid not getting hit by the splash zone.
Luckily it was dark and I didn't see anything.

But this noise I heard was much stranger than your usual bathroom banter. I carefully entered the door in the first room of the bathroom which only had the sinks. I see some familiar faces standing in the other door, laughing madly and pointing their fingers.
As soon as I enter the other room, I see this kid propped up above the stalls, doing the split like Van Damme. His face was all red and his ding-dong surrendered to gravity.
Then all of a sudden, to everyone's bewilderment, he shat the thickest and longest turd I have ever seen :eek: , landing it straight in the toilet with the speed and momentum of a torpedo.
Granted that guy remained a legend all through out High School. I'm sorry to say I lost touch with him and don't really know whether he was successful in life after that.
I will never forget that turd.
I've also made an illustration in case my words didn't describe it just right.

We also had a video of it in 3gp format in one of those 176 x 144 made with one of the Sony Ericssons on that era, but of course that's lost now.

Turns out I'd sliced through over half of the extensor tendon... Got to watch the surgery live, they sliced open again, pulled the skin back and propped me up so I could see; it was fascinating watching the surgeon stitch it back together. Turns out under your skin is really this weird pinkish colour!
3-ish months of not being able to use my dominant hand sucked hard, but after physio it's fine now! Got a dope lightning shaped scar out of it.

The next morning was the fun bit, I got diarrhea and I was throwing up at the same time. Fun experience. I still remember that time when I almost die of alcohol poisoning.
Another grimey story from our local is that a massive soft-drinks plant had an accident and a man was mixed with the sodas they served. As the story goes, body parts were later discovered on bottled carbonated drinks with toes and fingers as most identifiable parts that were seen.

Our house was at the top of a hill and down the hill was our garage and then our pier that sat on the lake. One day I was on the pier hanging out and then a couple of dogs showed up right near our garage and were playing kind of rough. Looked like they were playing "tug of war" with each other. Didn't think much of it.
Then I heard the mews.
Wailing mews.
I ran to where the dogs were in a panic and they both ran away leaving behind what they had been using as their "toy". There it was: one of the tiny kittens from under the house next door.
From what I remember the cat wasn't bloody or gross or anything extreme. It was just a little... crumpled. It had stopped mewwing.
I didn't know what to do so I got my sister and then we both were just kind of there. I tried mouth to mouth on this kitten not knowing what else I could do but it was just too late.
Maybe this falls more under vile or ****ed up than grimey but I just remember being so horrified over it and since for whatever reason this thread unearthed this memory from my brain figured I'd share.

Problem is the poor boy had been sitting in it for at least a few hours. When I got home he was very excited to see me. Every time he'd wag his tail it would fling feces everywhere. The wall and couch by his cage became a canvas. The dog was more than just an excrement-soaked mess; he had become Jackson "Poo"llock.

So my mom and I have a little blackhead/pimple thing on the same spot on our back, it comes once every few months on our right shoulder near the neck and does its nasty **** for a few days and then recedes back into darkness for a while.
However, my mom's is much worse than mine, while mine is a little blackspot her's is a ****ing black hole. When it comes it just looks like someone took a tiny drill to her shoulder and filled it with the nastiest shade of black they could find. Normally it would swell up a tiny bit and then disappear when it had devoured its fair share of nasty stares and dry-heaves from me, but that was just normally.
One ****ing day my mom called me and asked me to come to Costco with her so I could pick up dog-food and load it into her car/our garage. So I oblige and while walking through Costco glancing at my phone I notice something odd about my mother's silhouette. There's a ****ing golf ball sized abomination on her neck. I didn't want to see it, I really didn't but some force beyond my control grabbed my face and forced me to look. There I saw it, at the top of this loathsome lump of flesh was that goddamn tiny blackhead. The area around it was purple and red stuffed to the brim with the bodies most grotesque fluids.
I tried not to say anything out of common courtesy, and I did, for a while. But when the time came to pick which dog food she wanted, it all happened too fast. She bent down, grabbed a 50lb bag of dog food and grudgingly flipped it over. Power surged through her right arm. Her muscles tensed up, starting from her hand and pulsing up to her forearms, upper arm, and finally her shoulder. The putrid pocket of pus couldn't contain itself. Those weak shoulder muscles straddling it and flexing so rough got it excited and it decided it was time. As ill-favor had it, I was watching when her shoulder exploded into fleshy-fireworks. I watched as a concoction of the devils own nightmares flew out and spewed onto her shoulder. Time had stopped, my heart was beating so fast that everything around me was moving so slow. My body felt cold, the sweat dripping down my brow could have chilled the deepest creatures of the Antarctic. What could I do? Should I help? There was no way I'd be able to help her before my heart gave out. Luckily, I didn't have to decide, while my brain suffered over the choices my body reacted. I started to dry-heave and my legs began to move.
I ran, I ran so far away. Through the bustling lanes of Costco I lurched and leaped around families until I could feel it again. The Sun warmed my skin and my nose welcomed a breath of fresh un-molested air.
As for my mother, she went to the restroom and cleaned herself up. Afterwards the pharmacy gave her a band-aid so that the rest of the customers wouldn't be bird-boxed by the sight of her unholy agglomeration of abominable fluids.
This really did happen and I dry-heaved while writing this.

When I was about 10, our dog, that my parents got just before I was born, had grown old and was limp and half-blind at that point.
One day when only I and my mom was at home we suddenly noticed something on the floor. It was small, white and... wriggling. It was a larvae of some kind. We got a little freaked out and wondered where it had gotten from. So we started looking around. And we found more of them. We got increasingly freaked out. There seemed to be more of them in the hallway.
In the middle of the hallway lay our dog. Seemingly very tired and panting. We went to check up on him.
As we ran our hands through his fur, we saw it. A few days ago he had gotten a wound in his side. For some reason it hadn't healed right and out of it crawled small, white larvae en masse.
We cried in fear and digust and sadness.
Sadly, that day we had to take him to the vet to put him out.
...
This story actually has an epilogue of sorts.
I think it was the same year, but later in summer. It was hot and we were staying at our place in the countryside for a couple of weeks.
We were cleaning the house when we suddenly noticed something on the floor. It was small, white and... wriggling.
Needless to say, we freaked out again.
Apparently, something had happened in the small space in between one of our large panoramic windows and the wall. There was now a writhing, squirming mass of larvae.
...
Let's just say that ever since I've had a phobia for insects and such that move in a certain way.

The client was a smoker, smoked inside with the computers, I'm not sure if anyone has ever seen nicotine build up on computer components or ever smelled a year or more worth of build up, it is completely awful. The amount of junk that came out of the desktops when using the industrial fan blower we have was disgusting, the smell was awful and the components needed to be removed and cleaned before being put back into service.
2 out of the 3 laptops were fine, barely any dust, booted fine. The third laptop, no boot, after removing the cover there were some odd coloration, but standard procedure is to remove the harddrive and do diagnostics to see if we can see if data can be recovered and migrated, upon removing the harddrive, baby cock roaches began pouring out of the laptop and us quickly jumping back from our work bench and looking for the closest trash bag to throw all the laptop and harddrive in and seal it as fast as possible.
We did end up needing the building sprayed over a weekend due to the possibility of cock roaches and all, the customer did NOT want the cock roach laptop back but happily paid for our time in attempting to fix all of the items they dropped off.

He doesn't do any of this anymore to my knowledge, but it was pretty ****ing grimey, but he now drives a lifted diesel truck with stacks for coal rolling, wears Ed Hardy shirts, and is a firm MAGA believer, so I'm not really sure which is grimier to be honest.

Anyway, the oldest cat, an orange cat that has one eye that has turned dark over time (if you've ever seen my pictures) is starting to become senile. She'll meow/scream at walls, she'll be love-dovey with the young cat for a minute then turn into its worst enemy, she'll freak out if she's left alone for too long and loses track of where she is in the house.
One of the biggest problems the older cat is now running into is dingleberries... well sorta. Occasionally, she'll have issues using the bathroom so she'll leave one hanging, as in she won't chop off the log, and she'll run around the house until gravity takes effect and it breaks off on its own.
So, now that you have some context...
I'm a late night snacker... well I used to be. I love to eat just before going to bed (bad habit, I know). One of my favorite snacks is beef jerky; especially, bacon jerky. Try it, if you haven't yet (or maybe don't after this story). Because I'm a late snacker, I usually fall asleep, wake up 15 minutes later, take another bite, doze off, and repeat until I finally fall asleep until the morning. My cats love it because they usually get to steal food from me while I'm passed out. Any cat owner probably knows cats love getting on to beds, so I'm used to them jumping on the bed at night. It never wakes me up. They'll usually fall asleep on my face, or try to get into the covers on a cold night. I'm very comfortable by now with having two constantly moving beings around me at night.
Anyway, as you can probably tell where I'm going with this story...
One night, in my late night daze, I grabbed a piece of bacon jerky, that wasn't bacon jerky, and took a bite into it. Immediately, I knew something was wrong, jumped up, turned on the light, and starred down one of my old cat's dingleberries. Beef jerky/bacon jerky smells pretty strong to begin with so I must not have noticed the smell, I was half-awake, etc. I drank half a bottle of mouth wash, nearly threw up, threw away all my bacon jerky, and I have never eaten in my bed since.

I was at a random Chick-Fil-A in Georgia. While waiting for my food, I got that feeling that I had to use the restroom. Luckily I only had to piss. While I'm doing my business I notice that it smells rather pungent in the restroom. I finish my deed, and out of pure curiosity I peeked into the one stall to see if maybe they hadn't flushed or something. Boy what I saw was not pretty.
Someone must have had the worst diarrhea of their lives. To make matters worse, none of it was in the toilet. There was plenty if it on the toilet, on the floor, and some even on the wall. A good 3-foot diameter "puddle" had just destroyed the integrity of this bathroom. I'll spare you all the details of the consistency, texture, etc., of the matter itself. To top it all off, there was a pair of boxer-briefs in the middle of the mess! I sometimes imagine how the person was able to make their escape without notice.
Anyway, being the reasonable guy I am, I went to the register and let an employee know what I had "discovered"...and let them know it was not good, and to be ready for bad things. I saw an employee go in with a roll of paper towels and a mop. A minute later the employee leaves the restroom, obviously traumatized. Then I see the employee, and another staff member go in and peek in the restroom, then swiftly leave. Then one of the management staff had to get involved. He went in with some garbage bags, and the mop bucket, and I assume he cleaned up the job.
Yeah...i had that repressed for a while, then reading these memories brought it back...keep it grimey folks!

i remember as a 6 or 7 year old i was walking to school and there was a box on the ground turned upside down with no lid. i flipped up the box and there was a run over and decapitated animal, couldnt tell you which but it traumatized me for a little lol. it def looked grimey af rotting on the sidewalk under that box.
also remember a hobo getting on the bus, taking a **** and then getting off...but that happens so often on the metro now that its almost part of real life and not even that grimey.
most recently the worst has been a dude who worked on the IT team. This dude wouldn't wash his hands after pissing, ****ting or anything. He would use my little toaster oven at work, ****ing nasty, complained to HR, nothing. He would work on people's computers, set their **** up, all with his poopy hands. Dude entered a chili contest at work, all i could think about was his poopy ass chili. Finally got him off our floor and had to sanitize the whole damn kitchen.

Shortly after arriving one guy hat to puke, and decided that he wont make it to the toilet and opted for the window.
He "let it all out", but sadly did not notice that this window had a flyscreen attached to it...
All the "chunks" stayed inside, and everything more liquid made it somewhat out -> slowly dripping down the exterior of the building.

One of my grimiest memories was when I was 19-20 and worked at a gas station. That poor bathroom was never treated very well by the public. One winter in SE Michigan was exceptionally cold for long stretches of time and my conscious/humanity told me to let a homeless guy come warm up. Unfortunately, my compassion felt a little betrayed by a rather vicious ass explosion near (not in) the toilet followed by him making racist remarks to customers.... so had to send him on his way (but gave a him a big hot coffee to go).

Finish up a few minutes later, go to flip him up to burp, at which point a gushing fountain of hot breast milk vomit spews forth like Old Faithful erupting. It flies straight up, hung in the air in much the same way that bricks don't, and came splashing back down on both of us. I cry out in shock, he starts crying cause he's covered in his breakfast, and my wife comes running in thinking I fell asleep and dropped the baby.
She picks him up and instructs me to strip his onsie off so she can lay him on the changing table and finish cleaning him up. He is soaked to the skin so I pull of his onesie and his diaper. It was at this point, both of us still coated in sweet smelling milk vomit, that he lets loose and pees all over me and the rocking chair, as if to say "How dare you let this happen to me!" My wife laughs, my son cries, and I went next door to peel my soaked clothes off in the shower.

I was watching a movie with my grandpa and went into the kitchen to grab a snack, and then ran back into the family room. The thing is, I was wearing socks, and slipped and fell and bumped my head on the counter. I got back up, shook it off, then walked back into the room, right before I felt the blood dripping down my neck, then the excruciating pain. I had hit my ear on the direct corner of the counter, splitting it in half down to the cartilage.
I actually got it fixed up by my neighbor, who happened to be on duty at the hospital that night. Well, in the end I actually followed my parents words, because I didn’t get my ear stitched up, rather glued together, which turned into a grimey af purple red and black glob in my ear by the end of the week.

Next part is the not so fun part... We get to the canal and start setting up the two fishing rods. At some point we notice a bundle in the water that seems to be made of cloth, It is barely floating, so we think someone had hidden a treasure in the canal. (Yeah i know... very naive. We were young and dumb). We keep going around looking for a stick long enough to reach the bundle. We were both sure we were on the verge of great treasure. I knew something was weird when we poked the bundle towards us and it felt squishy. I remember pulling out the bundle gently with great excitement. It turned out to be a huge cloth wrapped around something that had a knot at the top. I will never forget this. When i started carefully unwrapping the knot the first thing that i saw was an eye! I remember this primal fear of seeing a glazed over tiny black eye, surrounded by wet black fur. I **** you not i was terrified. Turns out ****head with the dogs was know to drown litters of puppies and kittens instead of finding them homes. We took some time to recover mentally. We put the puppies in a hole we dug in the ground by the canal. And then... We broke as many of the mans windows as we could throwing rocks we found. Never went fishing in that spot again. No ****ing treasure found, just a worthless human being. Im still triggered by that loser of a man...

It didn't take long before the cat was in effect victorious - the poor little mouse's tail popped right off.. The cat ran off with its mostly complete mouse and I ran around screaming like an idiot because the tail had spiraled through the air and landed somewhere in my hair. That was pretty traumatising, and having mouse goo and tail in my hair was definitely a grimey time.

While boarding the boat, I noticed dark storm clouds looming on the horizon. A stiff breeze, choppy waters, and suspiciously empty ferry clued me in that most thought it unwise to travel by boat. As we pulled out of the harbor, I could see even larger waves and a host of ships heading for safer waters. We were the only boat heading out towards open water.
The farther we got, the worse the waves became. It wasn't long before the entire ship was heaving and hawing with each wave. Up we went, then, a precipitous drop strong enough to remind one of a roller-coaster. My stomach and bowels also sent me another reminder. It was bathroom time, and I had to go immediately.
As I navigated to the bathroom, walking like the drunkest person on the planet, I contemplated with all seriousness whether the boat would sink. I had seen news prior that a ferry had sank in similar fashion while on the Adriatic. Once to the bathroom, I realized that the seas were so rough that the toilet had become a cross between a bidet and a geyser. Desiring to avoid being splashed by my own filth, I decided to spiderman my way above the toilet with one foot on the sink, another on the rail, and my back wedged up against the wall above the toilet.
From this lofty perch, I did my business and somehow avoided sullying myself. The same, however, couldn't be said for the toilet and the floor. The waves were simply too strong and no matter how quickly I tried to flush, there was spillage.
Making my way out of the bathroom, I found a long line of bleary-eyed, sea-sick Turks. I don't know whether it was the scene I left or the sheer motion in the ocean that caused it, but the first person into the bathroom behind me immediately puked, causing those behind him to cascade vomit.
While I'm not proud of what I did, it ended up being a bonding opportunity as my then ex-girlfriend (who had broken up with me a week before visiting) mended the fence. For that, I will always look upon that day as a time when my poop truly built a bridge over troubled waters.

A few years ago I had face/jaw surgery to correct my bite and alleviate some jaw pain. Sounds rather trivial right? Nope. I had spent the year prior to the surgery in braces getting my teeth pushed and pulled into what would become my new bite. The last checkup before the surgery the PA gives us the talk, "this is going to be the worst thing ever, day 2 is a wall, if you make it past it you'll be past the worst, etc"
I have my surgery, make it out of recovery, and am wheeled up to my room. They had cut my upper jaw(maxilla) into 3 seperate pieces and cut my jaw (mandible) into four, all held together by plates and screws. All the trauma and cuts caused my sinuses to bleed despite blood vessels being cauterized and stapled shut. Now the fun thing about having your face rearranged is they rubber band your teeth together in the name of stability. I was unwittingly swallowing blood for several hours, I finally got nauseous and that blood came back up. Have you ever seen the Shining? You know the part where the elevators open and a deluge of blood comes crashing out? I felt like an anthropomorphic elevator that day. God bless the nurses that swooped in and changed my linens and got me a new gown.
Long story short, maxillofacial surgery is full of grime for weeks and weeks.
