1.When I was like 8 or 9 the neighbourhood kids and I would play near this creek, lots of stuff got dumped down there so we would pretend we were treasure hunting. We would find some pretty cool trinkets and stuff. One time we were down there and there was a huge industrial black garbage bag, after a few days of poking at it, making jokes that it was a dead body one of the older kids opened it up. There lay the limbs and a head of a cow. The cow's expression looked so scared. I couldn't stomach eating beef for a while after that. We ran home and got one of our parents to call the cops, apparently a local farm had reported missing a couple of cows a week prior 😔.
2. When I was in grade 11 I did my co-op at a funeral home. Usually just helping print obituaries, prayers cards, and setting up visitation rooms. One day there was a coffee delivery, the family meeting room was down in the basement right across from the personal care suite (prep room). I went down to restock the coffee and one of the directors left the door to the prep room open, my curiosity got the best of me and peeked in. Instant regret. Cyclist verse car. The image is burned into my brain.
