[u]Doctor finds spiders in boy’s ear[/u]
“They were walking on my eardrums,” Jesse Courtney said.

There are no emotes for the feelings this gives me. Sinks my stomach and tingles my spine. Uhuhhhhhhh.
There was an old “Twilight Zone” show about a guy who got an “earwig” in there, and it burrowed all the way through the brain and came out the other side. He was very relieved until he found out it had laid eggs along the way. I still get nightmares! ![]()
“Kaahhhnnnnnnnnnnnnn…”
oh god. now I’ll never get to sleep tonight.
I found a spider in the gloves I use for doing the dishes tonight as well.
That’s from an old short story by Algernon Blackwood. Its been around forever. ![]()
Good thing the doctor didn’t tell him to bend over. Now that would have caused a few nightmares. ![]()
djm
Would that be the arboreal barking spider?? ![]()
Pfff! Kid’s stuff!
Years ago a friend sent me an account of a guy in Australia, I think it was, who was admitted to hospital with a heavy fever. The doctors couldn’t work out what was causing this fever and after two days he died of it.
They did an autopsy. And they found baby Black Widow Spiders crawling out of his posterior. And when they looked more closely they found the remains of spider eggs.
Piecing together the rest of the story, they worked out that this chap, who lived alone in a rural area, had developed a habit of pleasuring himself on a suitably sized tree stump. A Black Widow Spider had laid eggs in the same tree stump and, since the guy apparently carried out his activities in the dark, he didn’t notice the transference of materiel.
When the eggs hatched, the baby spiders started exploring, and finding something living, proceeded to bite it. He was poisoned from the inside.
Careful where you sit down! ![]()
I think this whole thread is highly inappropriate. Slood Dood, you are nothing more than a rabble rouser!!!
I wonder if we can at the very least get it locked…Joseph!! Can we lock this horrible thread of Slood’s?
eeewwwww…spiders in someone’s ear! That’s just terrifying ![]()
Yeah, “What next?” is really a good question. Someone scared me about earwigs getting in my ears when I was young and I slept with the covers over my ears for a long time. I never saw that Twilight Zone though—that would have finished me off permanently. As for spiders, I think I will just pretend I never read that story. And as for pleasuring yourself on a suitably-sized tree stump—I’m having trouble working this out—but please don’t explain!
Yeah..ditto that! ![]()
And now I’m thinking that I’m offended by Slood’s spidery emoticon. I want it banished forevermore. And no more talk about spiders in general on the Chiff. None. Nada. The topic should be forbidden…maybe Slood Dood can start the C&F Spidey talk board or something. Can’t we even just THINK about doing it? Please?
I really have the heebies here.
Why on earth do I keep coming to this thread?
ew ew ew ew!!! that is the worst story!!! at least they werent those big florida spider, eh lamb? ![]()

Way too much details in the last presentation. Can we move to the financial stuff…
Because your subconscious knows that spiders are the coolest things on eight legs.
Poisonous spiders invade Britain
A Natural History Museum expert has warned that global warming is giving invasive poisonous spiders the chance to thrive in Britain.
The false widow spider, Steatoda nobilis, was first recorded in the UK in 1897,
You know, I have never considered myself a paranoid kind of guy… but I have a hunch that is changing very quickly.
