I was a volunteer in the campsite at Reading festival in 2008 and 2009 with a friend. It was exactly like this, a destitute wasteland of inexplicable tent abandonment. As part of the clean up, we went around with a wheel barrow collecting unopened cans of beer, each tent seemed to be a treasure trove for us as 18 year olds. It was all fun and games until he found a cooler box in a tent. Opened it up and inside was a singular, well preserved, human turd.

I was kind of happy when you said that it was a turd because for some reason I was expecting like a hand or a finger or something lol.

Same, I was expecting the absolute worst like a fetus.

That happened this year at Electric Forest. Except it was a porta potty instead of a cooler… and it was a full term baby instead of a fetus.

Like when my neighbor opened the refrigerator someone dumped at the end of the road: mutilated (to make it fit) human corpse.
