What the HELL do you teach?
How to out “Craven” Wes Craven 101?
If I never wanted to see a certain co-worker again I could show her that but I kind of like her. And she may insure that I never see her again by murdering me.
Ah, lovely Africa, where the parasites have had hundreds of thousands of years to figure out disgusting ways to feed on me.
How grateful I am to live in the New World, where the nasties are still new to the game.
Medical entomology (and a few other things).
Meh. The eyeball larvae in Australia are also venomous and can leap fifteen feet.
They also go really great with box jellies and vegemite on toast.
Actually, that wasn’t very disturbing at all, and was pretty fascinating.
You’re an OGRE. Of course you’re fascinated.

Yea, I stick my fingers in my eyeballs every morning and evening to insert and remove contacts, and have been doing so for 30 years. And there’s no effing way I’m clicking on that link.
Not clicking the link.
Not even reading the other posts in this thread.
Eyeballs. Worms. Case closed.
Hm. I thought the “Isaac Newton shoved a knife behind his eyeball” link would attract some insightful commentary. Maybe I should start a new thread?
Naaah. I don’t want to monopolize Doper eyeballs in this forum.
Also, it seems that the mods are either so inured to this kind of thing they don’t feel the need to register disgust, or they’re so freaked they can’t see their way clear to posting.
Either way, I can see where they’re coming from.
Thanks for the link, Derleth.:D*

Honestly, the still picture in the link isn’t bad. I did not watch the video. I know not to push my luck.
Are those photos posted somewhere for our oogie pleasure?
You know when you see those tiny little spots floating in your field of view? If someday you start to see giant, mutated zeppelins you should have your eyes checked for worms.
:eek:
Ayeayeaayeaaaaahhhhh kakakakagaagaagagftangftang!!oneone!!!
Curls up and disappears in a puff of smoke
Are you seriously querying as to whether I was being serious?
Seems like at least one of us has been whooshed. 
Bleccccch. I am so not clicking on that link. I can’t even watch my husband put his contact lenses in! Eyeballs are just icky!
Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.
No, he did it years ago, with polaroids - he’s got them in a box in his office. But if you search online, you can find similar pics.
Agreed, but still. Just… eww.
