Sometimes when I add a drop shadow in illustrator, I get these weird shapes in the shadow and I cannot for the life of me figure out why its doing it. I attached 2 images, one of the object without the shadow and one with. There's also another object on this document thats giving me 2 stright line way offset from the object itself. I'm sure it's a stupid mistake I'm overlooking but can anyone help???

Can you check your file in Photoshop to make sure that the area of the weird shape is fully transparent (use the eraser)?

I checked PS many many times to make sure there wasn't some little flaw in the image with no luck. This happens to me (at work) all the time but I have no idea what the culprit could be.
