NOT a Troll


I can't figure out why you people are calling me a troll.
Not a single one of you has ever seen me in person anyway.
So how the hell do you know what I look like???
For your information, I have been told on several ocaisions that I even qualify as "pretty". So take that!
Thank you Jer and Nich and you others who have been nice.
Why do you other people drag how a person looks into this and insult a complete stranger who've you've never seen! c'mon.:embarrassed:

ok... i pretty much think this is beat into the ground. a lot of ppl have given the original poster a lot of excellent reasons to not do this.

the first few ppl callign troll had no where near the data points necesary... and i still stand by them being jerks. but now... many data points a trend DO make :)


is troll or willfully stupid person. i care about neither =P


so i flip flop. go ahead and pick up some nits and let us know how it turns out for you :) i'd say to take some pics but... ew.

PinPeach, a 'Troll' by internet definition is not a reference to your appearance.
It is a person who intentionally posts a controversial/annoying/whatever topic with the sole purpose of stirring things up and getting people upset. 'Trolling' for trouble so to speak...

While your post could fit this scenario, I for one don't think it is the case here.

Happy scratching...

Sorry the forum is full of inconsiderate idiots. When someone doesn't agree with a post, or doesn't understand, it is default for them to revert to the old call them a troll routine. Don't let that scare you away. I would go talk to your doctor and see what they had to say. If no one else can talk you out of it, perhaps they can.

Remember to fill out a bite report. I think I'd leave out the pictures.

Then they're genuinely insane...

That's like saying... "Hey guys... where can I get a really cool tape worm?"

I mean WTF? Are parasites becoming the latest in exotic pets??? :?
Bot flies are kind of cool.;)

PinkZebraBooty is a she.

and this thread is comedy gold.

yeah bot flies fascinate me, I'd love to feel what it's like but I doubt I'd subject myself to it willingly. I'll stick testing assassin bug bites as I normally do ;)

On the off chance this ISN'T a joke:

He says these are specially bred and they're not the same kind as homeless people's lice.
There is no such thing as "homeless people's lice." There's just lice, and they'll live on anyone that doesn't bother keeping themselves clean and parasite-free. So yes, if you infest yourself with these things, they ARE in fact the exact same bugs that are crawling around on those icky homeless people. :eek:

He says these are bigger and tame.
I promise you they have not domesticated lice.

I'm worried but he says it's totally harmless and if I don't like I can just wash them right out with karosene.
All of the several hundred other brands and types of kerosene (aviation fuel, coal oil, heating oil, lamp oil, and fuel oil) contain a variety of extremely toxic ingredients, principally benzene and naphtha. These are absorbed though the skin and mucous membrane, and accumulate in the liver and kidneys. http://www.foreworks.com/liquid.html

The cure is worse than the disease in this case. Your boyfriend is telling you to poison yourself, for heaven's sake!

...is THAT why you started calling me a troll for pointing out that you were wrong about something over in Not So Spineless? :?

They certainly are, if they are on (in?) other people.

One of my entomological friends ended up with a human bot-fly maggot in his arm after a visit to South America. I would bump into him every couple of weeks and take a peek at his "guest" - often you could see the spiracles of the larvae in the base of the wound. We were all quite looking forward to seeing the resulting fly specimen but unfortunately the maggot decided to emerge out of his arm one day when he was out and about and he was unable to find it....

As for the mallophagaphiles - they must be absolutely barking ! "Hey Honey - Guess what - I have Crabs - but these are GOOD Crabs" :clap:

Mother of all that's good and holy. :eek: I would probably have looked at it too, but then I'm prone to giving myself nightmares for life like that, haha. Did it hurt?

Prin, since you're boyfriend is so sure these are not your common pubic lice and crabs found on bums, why don't you ask him to give you the scientific name of this miracle genetically selected breed of parasitic lice that doesn't feed on your human blood to survive and reproduce?

This way you could find the exact information your looking for without giving any buts why all the advice given to you in this thread is not applicable to you.

Surely, he must have it, and must have wanted to educate himself on this exclusive wonder breed..otherwise I'd be inclined to believe he's as gullible for being fooled there is such thing. OR just wants to convince you into believing this lie if his intentions are to try it out and knows you won't acccept otherwise for just for the heck of it. Yeah, he'd def. be looking for your best interests and health in any case. :rolleyes:

Enjoy the severe itching, just don't scratch too much, you dont want to get the region too raw and get any secondary infections :)

Some references on what exactly are you willing to get yourself into:

http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/000841.htm

http://www.ento.okstate.edu/ddd/insects/pubiclice.htm

And a picture of these harmless "fun" critters! So cute and fuzzy to have crawling and biting your crotch. Not to mention the redness, swelling, marks, bumps and discomfort they'll give you until you get rid of them.

I had never heard of the word "troll" used this way before until I came across this site. It finally came to me that it means, for example, the same as it does when people troll for fish. It's a "people" fishing lure (something that looks real but isn't) to catch people, like fish, that are fooled and think the "bait" is real. So the bait caster is reeling the people in and having fun with their catch, ..laughing and being entertained as they read the bait info that looks real. It's a metaphor. Not that this is the case. Even if it is a troll, I don't care, it wouldn't surprise me either way. Everybody is interesting in their way. The last dog I had had a bot fly larvae. I pushed it out and I swear that dog never forgot that. It seemed to think I was pretty cool after that.

I've always though of the analogy as dragging some tempting tidbit around trying to get a rise off of someone, but anyway.

I've heard alot of those botfly stories. Has anyone seen the photo of one in someone's brain? Could that happen if a botfly laid an egg, say, near your ear?
