Ahh! I stepped on a slug....

barefoot! :eek: I can still feel the slime on my feet. Ack!

That is such a disgusting feeling, isn’t it?

What’s the difference between a slug and a two-inch long squirming booger?

yeah, i couldn’t think of anything either

Slug? Slug??? Please. I once stepped on a frog in my bare feat. Just like stepping on a slug but with little tiny bones…

So quit yer whining…if i can get over it, you can (and…er…someday I hope to…it’s only been 20 years…shudder)

The poor frog :stuck_out_tongue:

Cherry8943 Icky icky yuk!!! Been there, done that, totally creepy!!! shudder If you are still slimed, try using dry salt to scrub it off.

betenoir Having grown up in the Puget Sound area I am familiar with slugs. Slugs are the most disgusting nuciance creepy crawlie there is. Not the most frightening, but the absolute grossest thing to step on, or make contact with at all with bare skin. A frog crunching would definitely be gross, but a slug not only pops the most vile innards I have ever seen, but the slime is irremoveable. It is like a super glue version of the nastiest “loogie” and it gives me the heebies to just think about it! still shuddering

Spatial Rift 47 Have you ever seen a banana slug? Increase the size of that booger to an eight to ten inch squirming mass of slime, and perhaps you will be able to visualize my two younger brothers spearing them on sticks and chasing me with them…shuddering convulsions

I believe that my brothers scarred me for life!

Bizarre. I’ve actually seen just one slug in my life, and it just happened to be because I stepped on it.

Been there, done that. I, too, live in the Puget Sound area, and stepping on a slug is a bad trip. 1) Their slime sticks like nobody’s business. What is the bioligical necessity of that? 2) They burst, when you step on them, like a tiny, tight balloon. It’s a horrible sensation.

Know what’s worse?
Sitting on a snail. :eek:

I sat on a toad once. Huge, ugly poisonous toad. After realising that I squished the mofo to death and that I had toad guts all over my skirt…I continued to vomit at the sheer gross-ness of it… :frowning:

Oh yuck! You win!

These stories make me feel like a wimp!

I was sitting in my mom’s living room when I felt something slimy on my pants, so I looked down and saw a slug on my leg! I ran out onto the front porch and took off my pants (I didn’t want that thing to stay in the house).

Shame that my mother lived on a major highway…

You killed “Sluggo”??

I am among friends! I stepped on a slug in my bare feet when I was about five years old. It was so awful. And all this time, I thought I was alone…

No, the shame is that I wasn’t driving by at the time.
wait, you were how old at the time? :eek: oops

Hey, at least the frog’s suffering is over :D. And he didn’t have to face being sealed in a succulent Swiss quintuple smooth treble cream milk chocolate envelope, and lovingly frosted with glucose

Ew!! When I was three or four I saw something at the bottom of my kiddie pool and thought it was a leaf, so I touched it and it was a SLUG OMG! I ran inside crying and washed my hands obsessively for the rest of the day.

They taste kinda bitter, too.

What?

Back in the winter, I went to put on a boot, and thought ‘hmmm, that doesn’t feel right’, took my foot out, and out jumped a frog! Right in the middle of my front room. I found another cowering behind a table…I think they’d found their way up from the river, squeezed under the door (there’s a half-inch gap) and not known what to do.
As for slugs, they are eeeeevil. Just evil. (Me and a friend have a theory that the serpent in the Garden of Eden was actually a slug…but that’s another matter entirely…)

I still have nightmares from when I used to step on slugs, as a kid. they are the only creep crawley thing that make me freak out.

We used to have an old wooden doghouse in our backyard. One day, my husband moved it, and jumped back because he thought there was a snake underneath. EXCEPT, it was a giant slug! 18" long. We dumped a whole box of salt on it, and it soaked every bit of it up. :eek:
