This afternoon:

Coworker:  Don't walk down by the cafeteria.
Me:  Why?
Coworker:  Evidently, some kid left his lunch in his locker over the two-week break. 
Me:  Ick, I bet that smells pretty bad.
Coworker:  Oh, that's not all.  When another kid smelled it, he threw up in the hall.  So yeah, don't walk down by the cafeteria if you don't have to.
Me:  *hides under desk*

Eww. A similar thing happened to me while in college. We came back after Christmas and the roommate who was supposed to wash the dishes before leaving hadn't. When we moved them, lots of roaches came scurrying out. That was the beginning of my roach phobia, and an *incident* that happened a few years later clinched it for me.

For that very reason, I wouldn't really hide under my desk.
