Wait... never mind, there was probably some dude behind me... or like something out of one of those scenes you see in those Chevy Chase movies.

At least you didn't post a picture of an engorged tick. Ugh.

You know, I remember in biology class when we were going over the history of biology, we learned about this prince who, when the microscope was first invented, had a look at a flea and got scared, proclaimed it was the devil.

Thank god he didn't look at a tick.

Ticks have never bothered me.
Mosquitoes, on the other hand.. I can't STAND them. Mostly because I'm so allergic to 'em..

O rly?

There's a certain bug that I get a reaction to, but I'm not sure which one, I'm thinking its probably not a fly because when I get bitten by them its always on the feet, and then my feet get all red and itchy and swell up, and I can't walk.

No, I know for a fact I got bitten by them before (I lived in a dorm that was infested with them *shudder*) and while it was unpleasant the bite itself just got a bit swollen as most insect bites do.

Fuck, I used to find those in my bed.

It was enlarged, not engorged. However, what Korinna posted was the most engorged I have ever seen a tick get. Goddamn.

The ones I pull off my horse are even bigger than that. Sometimes they burst, and that's just goddamn NASTY.. D:




There's a macaw on the back of my chair, telling me I'm a motherfucker.
I'm SO GLAD my little brother played a Katt Williams DVD with her in the room..

Jesus Christ, why all the hate towards me?
Seriously, it's like everyone here despises me and I have no idea why.
I'm seriously thinking about leaving, I don't need this kind of horrid treatment in the fragile emotional state I'm currently in. I thought a forum like this would be open and accepting, but failed to realize that alot of these "goths" are pretentious, uppity, and all-around hateful people.
I just saw this, and you know what? Fuck you. I've seen your responses to newbies, how 'open and accepting' you are, and I for one plan to treat you exactly how you do them.

Treat people as you want to be treated, doesn't always work, you can treat some people like kings but get nothing in return. It's hit and miss.

It does for me. Then again, I don't incessantly moan and whine about everything. That just pisses people off, because everyone has problems. Learn to deal, manG!

Treat others as you will be treated is the golden rule that makes no promise they will treat you the same back, being a good person just to expect good things in return is a little dishonest.

Jesus is a great example of this.

I do it because that's real, I don't want to go around acting as if absolutely nothing bothers me. Lame, I know.
