Not sure how long it had been there! It had no smell 🤔

    In highschool, someone as a joke put a banana in the laptop pouch of my backpack, figuring that I’d find it later that day and wonder where it came from.

    I didn’t have a laptop, and I didn’t use that pouch. It was a separate zipper, and was heavily padded, and I had no idea it was there. They forgot about it.

    After a few days, I kept noticing a wet spot wherever I set my bag down. After a few weeks, the weird rotting look at the bottom of my bag was too much to ignore. I investigated, and the horrors that were at the bottom of that pouch are not the likes I’d speak here.

      This happened to me but in the student drawers we had in primary school. I was not a particularly ambitious kid so i never used that drawer. It wasn’t until the end of the year that I realized that the rotting smell in the classroom had come from my drawer where someone at some point (might also have been me) put a dead crab.
