Why would you let it crawl on you?

One night i had to pee real bad so i stumbled out of bed and went to the bathroom. As i walked in, i felt something run onto my foot and started to wrap around my big toe. I proceeded to throw a super sweet kick as i turned on the light (as i was walking in i had my hand on the light switch) , and to my surprise I saw a centipede flying about 4 feet in the air. I proceeded to shit my pants as i looked for the nearest (heaviest) object I could find. I found a book on a small table and smashed that fucker back to the dark pits of hell's anus where it came from. Here's the aftermath: http://i.imgur.com/EmGGC.jpg

Aren't those things poisonous?

What kind of joy do you get out of handling a centipede?? The rush that accompanies possibly being bitten? Having to scramble to catch it, if it decides to make a break for it?

Or maybe the sensation of its several dozen legs each lightly poking you as it travels up your arm? If that alone boner-inducing to a weirdo centipede handler, I don't know how it's worth the risk; searching for an escaped Scolopendra is like feeling for an armed bear trap in a dark room, with your wiener. Once you find it, what will ensue will likely be very unpleasant.

I owned a Scolopendra heros castaneiceps which was appropriately named Red-Headed Bastard Child. It wasn't smear-the-wall-with-shit crazy like like my 10" Scolopendra subspinipes, but in no way would I ever voluntarily handle either of them. Once in a while, very rarely, I would hold a docile tarantula to show friends or family. But the centipedes? They stayed in their fucking tanks, always.

I would run in supersonic speed shitting Empire State Buildings on my way out of there

Can it be a rule to warn you about centipedes in the title?

Thanks.

....fucking vile creatures

That thing is actually poisonous. Also I remember a hilarious thread about how one of these things lodged itself in front of a redditor's home door and would not leave.

Ok, it might not have been hilarious for the poor guy but..

Centipedes are generally placid unless provoked. They are only slightly vonomous, if bitten its like having a fire under your skin at bite site for a few days and usually not fatal.

Because some people aren't terrified of things hundreds of times smaller than themselves. Those people are called normal, rational people.
