Yet another interesting quiz.
When I clicked on your link I got the 404 page not found and it went to the main page - yet clicking on the link there for human body and then the survey worked. Wonder if it’s because you ended the url with a period? Picky computers.
Teeth with maggots! Yikes! I hope that can’t happen if you brush your teeth regularly.
Hmm. I just finished breakfast. Maybe I’ll hold off taking the quiz for a couple of hours. :roll:
Only if you brush them with maggots ![]()
Eeeeeeeeeeeew!!! ![]()
That was an odd test.
i’ve seen many awful things…but those maggots…god, that was nauseating..
I never would have imagined… Jaysus. Now I have to suppress that image from my mind. The quiz indicated that I probably wouldn’t want to share a beer with that guy.

Mommy! That man is trying to make me throw up! (in whiney voice)

Eewwwwwww!

Well, I won’t print the picture to spare us all but this is a description of what happened:
The elderly Israeli man in the photograph is thought to have been infected when he sat down under a tree to sleep. A sarcophagid or ‘flesh’ fly crawled inside his mouth and deposited its live larvae in the gaps between his gums and teeth.

Herregud! I thought it was an animal’s teeth. shudder Poor guy. ![]()
Well, I think he got medical treatment right away----otherwise they wouldn’t have that photo. But I’m sure it was horrible for him. Just don’t sleep outside with your mouth open.
This is the spelling I have been looking for.
Probably the least threatening of all. Self-limiting, too. Well, at least not contagious. Not really. Haul the little guys out of there and everything’s fine. Or wait for them to pupate–they’ll drop out on their own. ![]()
At which point, you can put them in a jar and wait to see what they turn into.

Heh. I have touched most of those things, albeit with a sturdy pair or two of latex gloves.
And not just once . . . nor by accident! ![]()
Being a parasitologist can be very handy during the holiday season. I am never, absolutely NEVER, asked to bring food to potlucks. Even now that I am doing other, less gruesome things, I make sure to mention my former occupation–to which I am sadly allergic, although I’m delighted to now be doing something that pays better–right about November 1 every year. Never fails.
That toothbrush question kind of got me, though.
ok…I WAS going to take this quiz of yours, Flydooooood. But now, I think that it would be better to just stay away
If it made amar sick, that’s saying something ![]()
Could we please NOT do that? ![]()

I woke up one morning with a bit of indigestion, and went down to the Gitn’n’Go and bought a roll of Rolaids. That wintergreen made me so sick I spued right there in the parking lot. Wound up having to go to the doctor. Whose bright idea was it to make an antacid in the same flavor as an old spittoon?
