I call this story: The Devils Perfume
WARNING! WARNING! THIS STORY MAY MAKE YOU SICK!
I was out of town for the weekend.
So I haven’t used my car for a few days.
I get in my car Monday morning to go to work. I notice a foul odor. Something’s not right…The smell was a faint puke meets mold.
It was bad enough to do a quick search of my car for any gym clothes or food that rolled under the seat…Nothing.
So, I figure it’s just from sitting for a few days and I need to drive it around, air it out… (I did have a minor coolant leak recently which could account for an unfamiliar odor)
At the end of the day Monday I get back in the car to drive to Publix. The smell is real at this point; there is no question. I get to Publix, pop the trunk and THAT’S WHEN PANDORAS BOX OPENS.
As soon as I open the trunk a swarm of flies engulf me. I follow the pack of flies to their layer….and find a nest of maggots swimming in a pool of milk. Yes, Milk. I LEFT A GALLON OF MILK IN THE TRUNK FOR FIVE DAYS AND IT LEAKED ALL OVER THE PLACE. It smelled as if the devil himself farted in my trunk.
At this point, I’m convulsing in the Publix parking lot. Holding back all my humanly natural instincts to throw up. It was utterly disgusting.
I close the trunk and calmly get in the drivers seat…I drove home knowing that a home-made cheese stew lay a mere 5 feet behind me…I had to rip out everything from my trunk. Down to pulling the carpet out to reveal the metal skeleton …
This was going to have to be a level 5 bio-hazard scrub down.
The worse part was when I got to the wheel well, a cesspool of milky nastiness lay in wait…I had to plunge my hand in it to unplug the drain holes that lay at the bottom of the wheel well….
The smell was so bad as I cleaned my trunk, people walking by couldn’t help but gag themselves…
Four hours of scrubbing….and three days later…the smell went from 100% to about 3%…
I still can’t drink or eat any dairy…I may have caused the first case of a self-inflicted Lactose Intolerance
P.S. Ammonia, Bleach and Soap can take out any smell…
