Snap, Crackle, Pop! *OR* Is that a spider in your ear or are ya just glad to hear me? - Page 2

Still broken. Looked through all the linked photos and stuff from the Metafilter thread and kept thinking "cooool."

My step-father was a pretty manly man (while appearing somewhat effeminate) but he would scream like a little girl at even the wimpy spiders we get in Washington.

I'm still looking for my phobia. I grew out of the only one I ever had (public speaking).

Sadly I heard this on the news last night. So of course I had to open this thread.

Much like I finally watched all 3 Saw movies after walking out of the 2nd one and not sleeping for 2 weeks. Morbid curiosity - though I will NOT be opening that link.

The greatest thing about the story is that the kid was really into it, and had the doctor put the spiders into a little plastic case that he could show his friends.

Somehow, I've heard of this happening before.

I also remember hearing, and I think it was from my former boss who's a dentist (though I could be wrong), of a story about a young woman or perhaps just a girl had chronic halitosis since she was a young toddler. She went to the doctor, and it turned out she'd eaten part of a christmas tree, or something, that hadn't digested and was rotting in her stomach.

EWW

I probably would have done the same thing.

When I broke my hand a couple of years ago (shattered my fifth metacarpal), I kept one of the pins used to put hand back together.

I have the bebe that used to reside in Charles' leg.

The ear/bug thing is so Night Gallery.

I assume you mean a small metallic projectile (a bb) and not a fashionably overpriced t-shirt.

OH! That's how you "spell" it.

I was surprised I had to read this on MSN this morning, considering it happened in the next town over and I've heard nothing about it

Will this kid's head explode when the eggs they laid hatch?
