Has anyone heard this story (is it true)???

[Aurelia]

I thought you said it was a yeti:?

now you say it was a sasquatch, WTH was it,

it was probably a "bare" sherpa then

No way! I thought it was a bigfoot!

 

[Rochelle]

No way! I thought it was a bigfoot!

Yup..that's the same thing!!! LMAO!

 

[crpy]

They're the same thing.

Noo, lets be clear,ready...Sasquatch is in NA alias bigfoot.

Yeti is in Napal and he makes snow cones with yellow snow and leaves them for tourists by the trail head.

 

[Rochelle]

Yeti's cousin that lives almost to the top of everest, he used to live at a lower elevation but got banished for eating all the yellow snow cones.

 

[Rochelle]

No he didn't.
He's just the Uncle no one talks about.

 

[Scorpendra]

[GartenSpinnen]

HAHAHA thats a funny story. No its not true!

 

[ShadowBlade]

Its been re-worded apparently, because the 'scientific name' they used to give was literally blush-butt spider.

[scar is my t]

this is not true it can never be true because spiders are not POISONOUS they are venomous:? :? :? :?

 

[Rochelle]

This thread made my eyes water. Thanks everybody!
You're all invited over for the big bonfire....yooz funee peepul.

 

[Aurelia]

Yay! Can we make s'mores?

 

[AubZ]

Just make sure it is near all the lovely snow cones.

This wouldn't be the best way of determining if it was valid or not (it's a hoax, obviously, I'm just referring to this criterion). Most scientists don't even make a distinction between "poisonous" and "venomous" in their day to day vernacular and note-taking. Heck, J.G. Lewis, arguably the world's foremost expert on centipedes, in his book "The Biology of Centipedes", called their maxillipeds "poison claws".

So yeah, it's a nice tidbit to impress friends with at cocktail parties, but it's not a useful distinction.

In my presentations I tell people that a Poison is a toxin delivered by ingestion or absorption and venom is a toxin delivered hypodermically by means of a spine,stinger or fang. I say that not with animosity but like you say a "tidbit of info, but its no big deal in the grand scheme of things

^^ This is the way it should be done... unfortunately a lot of people as soon as they hear someone "screw up" and "use the wrong word" they're like "oooh, ooh, I know something you don't knowwwww!!!"

Yeah, and some languages as well. For example my language uses only one word for the two English words "poisonous" and "venomous".
