HOW'D THAT GET THERE? - Page 2

Blade · 10-02-2010, 04:07 PM

While cleaning out my own closet today, I came across 3 identical pair of Justin boots. Now I know exactly how they all got there I just didn't know there were that many pair in there. I had to read inside each boot at the lot numbers to figure out which boots went together, I had 2 pair with the same lot number. I had to look at the bottoms to see which 2 boots were worn the most on the soles to determine which to throw away. LOL I also found a bag with mail in it from Aug and Sept 2009 in it. Birthday cards bills all kinds of stuff in that bag. Now how'd that get there?

If you liked the boots enough to buy 3 pairs of them, then maybe someone else would like them too. Maybe donate instead of trashing?

Chuckling....Gemme, I actually have 6 pair of that same boot 4 brown pair, a blue pair, and a black pair. I wear them slam out before I part with them. I wear a pair for like casual wear and when I get them scuffed up some I start wearing them as my every day pair and wear the soles off them, meanwhile I start another brown pair for casual wear. Course I have the blue and black pair for casual wear to match my hat and belt or shirt or whatever. However I filled up a tote with Reebocks, Ariat's, flip flops, Brama's to take to Goodwill.

Maybe somebody used them in the commission of a heinous crime and was hiding the evidence. Ever check above or behind to see if the original intention was to sop up blood or decomposing body liquids? Wondering who or what part of somebody is buried in that vicinity.

When I moved into my present house many years ago we discovered a couple of intact animal skeletons in the basement rafters. May have been dogs or cats. We were told later by neighbors that the people who had built the house years before were eccentric and the husband kept a shot gun in the kitchen and took pot shots at the neighbor's pets (occasionally at the neighbors themselves). They sold us the house when they retired and moved to a villa in Sarasota. I heard that they were both dead within a year or two. Last part is just incidental. I didn't care for them.

I've never shared this story with Lucy, my shih tzu. But I will on Halloween!!

I was cleaning up a lot I bought years ago. It was a Barbie graveyard. I found doll parts buried all over the property. Very odd.

Sexy femme panties in the glove box in my truck. I never used the glove box and she had put them there months before when we became busy on a hot summer night.

Its not really a 'how did it get there', but unpacking during the move I found a chat log from back in IRC days between me and a old crush. AHHH the memories. I wonder how she is doing.

Your brother grew out of it I hope?

LMAO I did this to a coworker, he had 'action' figures on his desk and he came in one morning to find them face down with barbies standing on their backs.

A comb and a paintbrush. That someone so sweetly stuck down in the a/c vent.

I can't tell you how many times I've heard about toothbrushes being found in shower drains....I think it may be a military thing. I know my ex brushed his teeth in the shower....

I will never forget the day Blade found the item he spoke about in the quoted post. And I'll never forget his reaction

You had to be there!! Life is never boring with your best friend.

Recent events made me say "how did THAT get there?" especially when Spring Cleaning in December. Yesterday it was a box of batteries that had disappeared and suddenly reappeared.

Last week it was my keys that I never misplace but somehow misplaced for 2 days (my best friend would roast me for misplacing them. It's an inside joke.) How did THEY get THERE? (in with my clean underwear)

I picked it up like evidence with a trash bag turned inside out, cuz I haven't a clue who wore it, or what they did with it, or where it had been.

Thought it would make a cute thread. What is the strangest thing you've found while cleaning. Or What did you find that you thought was long gone or lost while cleaning?

Someone else's paystub appeared on my desk at home. A person I don't know who works for a company I never heard of. No envelope.

WTF?

I mailed the paystub back to the company. That kinda spooked me.
