rotting, fermented grass cuttings? more like biohazard waste compost!

i was going to mow the lawn today but i had to deal with a large yard bucket full of grass cuttings that had been sitting in the sun for weeks now. what i didn't realize was how bad it'd gotten. i then made the mistake of scooping out some of the grass with my bare hands (idiotic, i know), but soon i couldn't handle the texture so i grabbed a shovel instead. 

and let me tell you, the smell was atrocious. i gagged every time i accidentally inhaled its toxic fumes (no, it wasn't actually toxic, it just smelled like it was) it made everything around me reek like a dumpsite made of mystery meat. even worse, it was wet. fucking wet at the bottom of the bucket!

of course, i got stains all over me, and i had to basically take two fucking showers because of how strong and pungent the stink was.
