I've got it. It's drool. Greasy drool.

The film technician was sneaking a snack on the job, complaining
vehemently to a co-worker about the low pay and terrible work
conditions and why the heck did they make so-and-so the new assistant
manager, and got himself so worked up that some greasy burrito drool
dribbled down his chin and onto your film. 

He saw the greasy drool gob quivering on the film strip, so he shook
it and waved it around trying to sling drool off, but it only spread
further, so he mashed the whole mess into the developer before anyone
could see what he'd done.  Than explains the triangular shape - the
drool hit the film and spread out by centrifugal force and action of
surface tension of the liquid.

Any more mysteries to be solved, just give me a call.
