I've eight sticky legs spreading out,

With which to hug you when you pout.

Your day may be bland,

But I'll hold your hand,

And tell you what love's all about.

It's cute... Although I'm fighting with the urge to tell you all it's like something I once found on my person.

It happened one Spring day on the West Coast of Ireland. I had had a lovely relaxing evening watching movies with a friend and we finished up around 3:30AM prompting me to head straight for bed. However I couldn't sleep due to a slight uneasy feeling around my naval. I scratched it once or twice and thought no more of it. I was reading Sherlock Holmes at the time and as such was engrossed in 'A Case of Identity' thus staying awake just a while longer. About 30 minutes of reading the unease became a slightly burning itch. I threw back to duvet to examine my enraged abdomen, large nail marks marred the area either side of my treasure trail. But right in the centre; I saw it. At the start I thought it was a new mole and picked it a bit. To my utter horror it came off on the end of my finger. As I brought it closer into my visual field I came face to face with the horror that was causing the horrible feeling. About the size of the head of a pin, there was my nemesis, translucent and malevolent staring at me with his vicious eyes. This abomination it turns out was a "Pubic Louse" which similar to the above had numerous limbs and darker spots towards the edge of the central body. And thus this baby is not cute to me as the number of upvotes would suggest.

TL;DR: This thing reminds me of the time I found out I had crabs by finding one in my treasure trail.

I'm afraid just getting him off my finger would hurt him, he's so tiny and squishy-looking!

[–]booleangirl 0 points1 point ago

He looks sort of pissed. Luckily, I love pissy animals. E.g. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capybara

[–]xdrewmox 0 points1 point ago

Hopefully not a blue ringed one.

[–]heinleinr -1 points0 points ago

Hmmm, I wonder what the acidity and absorption of your skin is doing to the little creature (i.e. how much pain it is in)...

[–]exh44 0 points1 point ago

Wow, you couldn't just grab something that hadn't already been posted on reddit 16 times? Come on... What do you take us for? You are obviously not too original.
