What interesting, wholesome, or NSFW story have you been dying to tell, but nobody on askreddit ever asks the right question?

This will probably get lost here but just to get off my chest, me and a few of my best buddies went to Japan almost a decade ago now while we were still poor students. While we were there one of them lost their JR train pass, possibly near one of the stations.

For those who don't know about JR passes they are very pricey, upwards of $1k and they can't be replaced. Upon finding this out we split up to possible locations to find it. Me and one other buddy went together to the most likely station and asked for permission to search the rubbish. We were then taken to a grimey shack full of rubbish bags where we spent the night digging through for the pass.

We never found the pass but upon seeing how crestfallen our friend we decided not to tell him that we just spent the night digging through the trash for his pass to no avail.

To this day he still doesn't know and now it's just a silly little memory of some cheapskate students pulling an all nighter digging in the trash for nothing but still it was one of my more memorable moments of the trip.
