The Grossest Thing Evah... - Page 2

Teaching 1st and 2nd graders, I always told them: "If you think you are going to be sick, run for the restroom. If you think you can't make it, run for the trashcan. Do NOT come up to me and tell me you are going to be sick, I will figure it out." Simple, huh?

Scenerio #1 - Blance comes up to me one morning, holding her hands cupped under her mouth. "Teacher, I think I'm getting sick." "Okay, Blanca, run for the...oh. Get to the tra...." Blanca begins throwing up everywhere. This triggers a reaction in Gabriela, Carlos, and Julia. So now instead of one, I have 4 children throwing up in the room. It made a great start to the day.

Scenerio #2 - This really great student is absent in the morning. He and his father show up at 11:00 am. Father: "Huy was sick this morning. But, he threw up and feels better." Now, I am looking at this kid and I know Huy feels sick and the heat from his little body could fry an egg. "Mr. ___, are you sure Huy feels okay?" "Oh, yes, yes. He feels good." Huy proceeds to turn around and throw up more than I had ever seen a drunk fraternity brother throw up. His father turns to me. "I'm sure he feels better now." Child had a 102 temp. We made the father take him home.

Elementary teachers get over the smell of vomit very quickly.

Sticky traps can be slightly dangerous as well. One day one of my kitties jumped on my bed with something on him. I assumed it was tape or something but then i relaized it was huge and very stuck. I forgot we had an exterminator out the week before and he put out sticky traps. Well it stuck to the side of his leg and that sticky stuff is STRONG!!! Poor thing, I had to cut the all hair off his leg and part of his tummy and back to get it off. He looks like he got in a fight with a pair of scissors and lost...haha.

It would be funny if getting the runs was "contagious" like throwing up. Like if you're applying make-up in front of a mirror in a public restroom and you hear someone in a stall having diarrhea, you shit your pants.

Of course I was behind the wheel and the smell was unbearable. I felt bad for my aunt and mother who was in the backseat with her. Once we got to a gas station I literally threw up in the parking lot.

SImilar story except it wasn't my granny, it was my dog. The family was driving from my grandmother's house home and we had our chihauhau (sp?) in the back seat between my sister and I. After driving a while my sister and I started the "Ewwww...something stinks" "Mama, Sister farted!" "No I didn't you did!" game. AFter a few minutes of that we relized our legs wwere wet and our dog had pooped on the set. It was extremely runny and got all over us, the seat and down in the carpet. IT was gross.

Mice are not human? Why do we need to be humane to them?

Needless to say, the doctors are more worried about his privates than the leg just now, as he's a little dog and can't handle any more anaestetia for a month or so. Poor little guy.

SHEEESH. That poor dog should just be put to sleep.

There's also a box-style trap that's a little more child and small pet-proof as well. But, since I've never had an issue with mice, I've never worried about it...

Well obviously, I'm not an animal rights activist, and the humanity with which it died isn't a big deal to me. I just wish it left less blood and feces on my kitchen floor.

I did, however, make sure to tell my neighbors to stop leaving trash out to attract the mice. I keep my place clean, I'd rather not have to deal with a mouse problem because of someone else's carelessness.

Are snap traps cleaner? It seems like they would still leave some mess.

Yeah seriously....but I guess a snap trap contains it to one area.

I think so - my old office in Boston used to leave them out, and the dead mice wouldn't leave a mess.

Of course, I'm a wimp and can't stand looking at any dead animals, so I may not have noticed.

Luckily now I have my own house and don't have to worry so much about the mice problem. That, and the damn stray cat that frequents my driveway would probably just kill them before they got inside anyway.

That's what I think, too. Sure, the owner paid big bucks for this dog as a potential show dog, but he can't be shown now, anyhow.

For someone who is constantly reporting people, you're doing a helluva good job being annoying as hell and pushing people's buttons. I seriously think you have nothing better to do than sit at the computer and figure out "Hmmm who's buttons will I push today so they can go off on me and I can report them because I have no life at all?" Aren't you the one who is into chop suey? Why don't you go practice and leave the internet alone.

Back to the topic at hand... one time my partner and I were in the middle of one of our high school tennis matches when all of a sudden we heard really high pitched animal screams. Around our court (but on the outside of the fence thank god) comes running a cat with a rabbit in its mouth. We had to stop playing for a few moments to collect ourselves. My friend always brought a loaf of sliced bread with her on the long bus rides to make sandwiches for people, and somehow that same cat got on the bus and ate the whole loaf of bread.

So my very old cat (we're talking in her 20s, deaf and blind) caught a rabbit one day and ate the top half, leaving the back legs on the deck. I have no clue how she did it (caught the rabbit, that is). We have 6 cats so I'm used to finding dead rodents and cat puke everywhere, but really...half a rabbit? Come on. Margie's been dead about two years now.
Oh, also, as she got really old she did the nastiest smelling poos in the entire world. They were vile. Now I'm an EMT-I can deal with vomit, urine, blood, sweat, bile etc. But for whatever reason, feces makes me gag. Ugh.

Ewwwwwww...... my cats are only a little over a year and their poo is pretty nasty smelling already....let's hope your cat's issue was an isolated occurence. Speaking of poo, one day one of my kitties had the runs and decided to drag his poo-ey ass all over my carpet and kitchen floor. That was fun to come home to. There was freaking poo everywhere.

BTW, nice editing on the thread. All is right in the world.
