Unfrozen Swordfish: Surprise!
Unfortunate oversight: turkey comes out on top19 total reviews

Where do you find these people??? LOL - Just kidding.
My daily laugh provider. Any time I feel down, I go to FS and search for one of your stories. It takes about 2 minutes and I'm laughing again. As always, it's the phrasing, so wry and tongue-in-cheek.
We once came home from a vacation, opened the fridge and found the entire contents stinking to high heaven. A mouse had gotten caught in the coils behind the fridge and broken it.
It happens to the best of us.
Cheers!

As you found out--You can never remove the stench--gotta chuck the freezer.
The gist of the story is factual--the final scene is exactly as he described it! I'd hoped the amusement value would compensate for nausea. Wrong! Many readers are gagging. Cheers. LIZ

Ha, ha, ha I know it was not funny for your poor friend, but I must admit that you have a way with your words that made me chucle: "Have faith: the apparent paradoxical statement above will be resolved. (Hint: though the heaven/hell bit is obviously metaphorical, the stink per se is literal.)" Thank you for sharing and good luck with your writings.

Comment from kmoss
Hahaha. No way!
Funny: (The former came courtesy of a fisherman friend; the latter was on super-sale at twenty-nine cents per pound.)
I once saw a video about a women setting up her cheating husband. They divorced. She let him keep the house. The catch(get it fish lol): she hide seafood inside of the curtain rods. Months went by and the ex husband and new girlfriend tried everything, short of burning it down, but nothing fixed it. They moved...and took the current rods with them. Lol. Genius or petty as far as the ex wife goes?
Meanwhile, my boyfriend and I have a joke about "is there a banana in there?"
We had a gnat invasion. Couldn't figure it out. I tore apart the bedroom one day to find his backpack under the dresser. Gnats were loving it. I held it up, "what's in here?"
He ever so casually said, "there might be a banana in there." Wtf. Of course there was a rotten banana in there, that housed many gnats! I threw away the whole backpack and it's contents. Which apparently had his back up house key. ð?¤·ð??»â??â??ï¸?

It was something I saw on Facebook years ago, not a movie. Now for the banana incident, it's real facts! lol
Comment from Gloria ....
Yikes! Chuck must be congratulated for his great sense of timing. I'd bet the memory of the eau d'poisson, avec de dinde permeated even Lauren's grilled-cheese sandwich.
You'd never find a cheese sandwich smelling up the neighbourhood, even if the freezer went on the blink. Of course decomposing corpses doesn't sound all the appetizing either. lol
It does make for a great story, and I really got a charge out of the trux-r-us.
Can't wait to see where your imagination goes next. :)

Comment from Judy Lawless
Eww, this is a stinky story Liz! It's almost hard to imagine the stench, and then having it spread throughout the house in attempts to remove the freezer and then decomposing carcasses. As usual, you've told it well with your sense of humour.

Comment from royowen
I can remember buying several Tommy ruffs, (a very tasty small fish caught in Aussie waters) I was single at that time, and went to the pub after work. I completely forgot the fish in the boot, (trunk) until the stench starting permeating the car, I was an insurance salesman at the time, so spent my days in it. It tried everything, I scrubbed to car, inside and out, until I suddenly remembered, and removed the offending article, and the smell eventually left. They say that a corpse left in a car for days becomes impossible in removing the stench...I wonder? Well done, I understand, blessings Roy

Oh my! That beats all smelly fish stories! So he chucked (sorry, no pun was intended) a brand new freezer? I hope someone with enough clorox was able to clean and use it!

Liz,
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! --snort!-- HAHAHAHAHA!
What fun, fun, fun! (For us - not for your guy, of course.) But thank you for sharing it. My hubby - for once in a great while - is sitting beside me (before heading back out to jump tall buildings and rescue babies) so I was able to share it.
THANK YOU for always providing such joy and light. You're quite the treasure. I must go back and thank karenina for sending me to you originally!
Have a marvy day!
