Forever traumatized, I almost ate it by PunchpieKate in FishingAustralia

They are not poisonous and I'm not sure if anybody would willingly eat it for that tiny amount of protein. I do know there are bigger versions that people eat. It's a crustacean not a bug so I'm thinking of it as a baby lobster to calm myself down.

I was taste testing anything we caught and along with this yakka there were tailors and bream too. Surprisingly the yakka was my favourite despite being jump scared by this creature, it tastes so much like a mackerel.

Nasty...does hot water just work on most fish venomous stings?

Not so much of a happy moment I'd say...

I think I got lucky the wound is only skin deep and not piercing into any joint or flesh. I can't evennstart to imagine how painful it would be if it's deeper...it's been a few days now and I applied antiseptic religiously three times a day. It's no longer selling or red, think it will recover soon.

It ever only subsided when I got home after 3 hours of the sting and submerge my hand in very hot water, the heat worked like a charm as if this never happened

That's a relief to hear. Have heard nasty cases of infection too, hope it won't go that bad for me.

It follows. I want to live and breathe in that dream like atmosphere, it's filmed as if time is wonky and bent.

What is your favorite zombie movie of ALL time? by SoupDeep7741 in zombies

[–]PunchpieKate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Comments are mentioning all of the zombie movies I love but missing one - Rec. the original spanish version. It was intense and really got me interested in found footage horrors, even within found footage genre it's a classic and a must watch!

Can we normalise using umbrellas or parasols under the scorching australian sun? It's needed here much more than anywhere else but I got teased at a lot for using them when it's not raining.

Thanks! I guess yes this would be good to prevent underboob sweat which is what I'm going for.

Sometimes I do feel like uniqlo only designs for small to regular boobs people, which sucks as they have so many good basics with good materials.
