ahhhh damn close call!!!!

ok I was sitting here reading this forum. I got my computer on the floor and I was laid out on the ground reading intently on a post when all of a sudden I saw movement in my peripheral vision. When I looked over a small brown creature was moving VERY fast and was an inch from my bare feet... I shot up faster then I can blink an eye and realized it was a fvcking scorpion... arghhh I hate those things... And it was on a dead run to attack me... While my lights were on and everything... Anyhow it got his. :trouble:

But now my heart is beating like crazy that little bastard. I've been stung before and don't want to feel that ever again.

hahaha, okay this post doesn't have alot of relevancy other then I was reading here when it happend. But I had to tell someone.

Is it true the sting from those things can kill ya if you don't get an antidote quickly?

Anyway glad you avoided the sting lol.

nah it won't kill me. Only the old people and very young (like babies in a crib young) have anything to really worry about their venom... Other then the fact I have half a bottle of Vodka in my system right now, and alcohol thins the blood, so it would have allowed the poison to travel through my body quicker and unrestricted. :flowers:

But for the most part it just freaking hurts... If you ever been stung by a bee, multiply that by 5 and imagine the initial shocking strike lasting for about 5hrs, and then very weird soreness and odd sensations lasting for several days after.

I compare a scorpion sting to a lightning strike that keeps on striking :yes:

but I can't complain too much... He had the worst night, I crushed the life and soul out of his body with my own shoe. Or as they say on Waynes World 2, "I had to beat him to death with his own shoe... but thats a different story all together."

My uncle lives in Tucson. I remember I went to visit him when I was like 8. The bastard just had to tell me he saw a scorpion in the house that day. I didn't sleep a damn bit that night. I had my little flashlight and I was scoping the room the entire night! I was gonna be damned if I got stung in my sleep. lol! Oh, he told me he saw it in the bathroom. I swear I didn't go to the bathroom the entire time I visited him. I got home constipated as hell. haha!

The scorpion was on a "dead-on run" to attack you?

What was it, suicidal or something?

 

[Randallpink83]

dude.. he was comin'... And it was very bright in the room at the time. They are very nocturnal. So it was just out of character for him to jump from cover like that and come straight towards me in such an open lit area.

I don't know, but it surely is a more exciting story if he is attacking me. Means I killed in self-defense ok
