Last night we called 911 because 7 adults living in this building confirmed smelling gas.

and it turned out that the remaining 2 adults were harboring the remnants of a ripe durian in their trash.

A ladder and an engine came out. With a command vehicle! They took the durian with them when they left. Laughing.

Gas leaks are scary. Glad everyone took the smell seriously and the story had a happy(ish) ending.

And I'm srsly pleased that TIL mercaptan is at least part of what gives durian its distinctive funky smell!
