I’ve never been bitten by a mosquito. Or fleas for that matter. For some reason I don’t smell good or something? I’m not complaining. It was awesome growing up in the mosquito lovin’ South. Occasionally I’ll get a spider bite but I never know about it unless I see it, because it never itches. But even I wasn’t immune to the painful bite of fucking sweat flies. I definitely don’t miss those little bastards at all.
Dad used to take me on fishing trips as a decoy. It was particularly brutal being a mosquito magnetic kid because I did sometimes have an allergic type reaction and swell up like a balloon. I remember all bites being an itchy swollen agony, but if I got them on my face or ankles I’d swell up and need antibiotics.
As an adult, mosquito bites hardly bother me. I don’t seem to attract disproportionately more bites than my companions, and I don’t have allergic reactions. Have I stopped tasting delicious to mosquitos, or have I got as many bites as ever but I don’t notice because they aren’t inflamed and itchy?
I am a total mosquito magnet. My wife loves going for walks with me in the evenings, because the mosquitos will swarm around me and leave her alone. I don’t know what it is but they can’t get enough of me.
I guess I should take some consolation in the fact that there are some females that find me irresistable.
Yes!! They love me! The only person in the family they loved more was my mother, they never bothered my father or siblings at all. Mom would sit outside as long as she could stand it, then she’d utter a few choice words and go in the camper. My siblings would laugh and say, “Why Child will be gone in 5 minutes.” Because I was next. The article says, “genetics account for a whopping 85% of our susceptibility to mosquito bites,” so that explains it for me.
Of the people that the mosquitos love, do you also see an extraordinary amount of spiders? They seek me out. I’m convinced that they follow me. If one is on the ceiling, it will walk my direction. I can get up and walk across the room, and it will change direction. If I then walk back to where I was, it will, too. I’ve proved this to many friends, so if I’m paranoid, it is only because they made me that way! :dubious:
Please don’t take this the wrong way, but I hate you. I hate you a lot. You are obviously evil and must be destroyed.
I’m sorry, I went outside for a couple of minutes earlier and that was just the welts talking.
