I mean if it was a rotten one then that description isn't too far off.
In middle school some kids thought it'd be hilarious to throw a dozen rotten eggs into the air return of the school. Clear the fucking building OUT in under 10 minutes. Also got the bomb squad and several other authorities involved due to them thinking it was a chemical attack.

Thank god. For a second I assumed someone saw an egg and literally thought "that oblong white thing.. idk? Could be a bomb!?"

Eggs are so expensive now that we've resorted to hiding them! Where is Frank with his egg during these trying times.

The smell is... Well, once you smell it, you KNOW that smell. It's engrained into the surface of your brain forever, like skunk musk or a dog with parvovirus.
It's a bit funny that none of the adults in school didn't immediately know what that smell was.

At first I read this as "wrapped in a banana" and was really struggling to understand why someone would wrap anything in a banana, but especially an egg or bomb.
SheriffComey t1_j5l7z54 wrote
Most of the students and some teachers said exactly what it was. I mean like you said you just know.
Where administrators were coming from was in the off chance someone used the eggs to hide the smell of something else. Basically an abundance of caution. We used to do that in the early 90s

I remember as a kid trying to make rotten eggs to use for mischief, and we just couldn't get them to rot, even waiting for weeks with them. So frustrating, ha.

I wonder which is more expensive now.
Improved explosive device.. or an egg.

Ever try to cook a whole egg (uncracked) in a microwave? Potential explosive device.

One can only hope that the homeowner has the phone # of the caller and the police do follow-up and arrest the threatener.

This gave me a terrible idea!
Peel banana but leave like 2" of the peel intact.
Jam egg into little 2" pocket.
Throw!
I'm imagining the peeled pieces acting as stabilizers for the egg bomb!

When the dogs start to have diarrhea, it has a very distinct smell. It is not just a "sick poop" smell, nor is it just a blood smell. It's almost...chemical.

Yeah the potassium of the banana reacts with the eggs calcium. Basically thermite.
