P.Murinus bite

[Andrea82]

Paranoia could be an issue, but like you said @Kendricks , two posts is not enough and we are not qualified to make a diagnosis.
We're going terribly off-topic in a thread that is supposed to become a bite report..

Except when there is not a single piece of evidence to support this silly claim.

Which is why everyone else, including myself, pointed that out with examples to the video. There was no need to try to make some lame connection to his mental state or present him as creepy to make the point.

Fake videos man, fake videos everywhere!
Better look out for shampain playing us all like puppets!

About as valid as - Oh My God... This guy thinks there could be fake videos on the Internets... He is clearly mentally ill and creepy. Here let me hit up a scared emoji to show my fear is for reals. No fooling Bro.

Yeah, you're right.

Lots of things can cause paranoia. Too much coffee. Alcohol. Drugs. And yes, mental illness.

Look, I'm not here to chew your jugular. I've got other jugulars I could chew. Just gonna say that as someone with diagnosed anxiety, chronic depression, and borderline personality disorder, the topic of mental illness is usually one people are woefully misinformed about. There is such a negative stigma about mental illness, and it impedes both education on the subject and treatment. Do you know how many years I refused treatment because I didn't want to be put on medication that would forever mark me 'crazy'? Do you know how many people think talking it out will cure something like Schizophrenia?

450 million people worldwide suffer from mental illness. One in four people. That's a pretty staggering number. If we apply that number to this thread with 35 participants, 8 potentially have some sort of mental illness.

I don't think you were intentionally insulting, I just think this is something people never really think about. It's such a common issue and yet it's about as misunderstood as Nina Simone.

Almost sorry I blocked this guy, would have seen this sooner.

No problem with it at all. Grown man making a decision to show others how much certain species can hurt. Nothing wrong with that.

@Kendricks you've earned yourself a follower.

@Trenor what goes around, comes around I suppose.

Worst part is how you made damn sure that the spider was good and ticked off before going in.... I look forward to reading this bite report lol

Best part is from 0:24 to 0:29, when you clearly see the finger choosing the best way/direction for end bitten, like a kid choosing toys in the shop

Btw don't get tagged by the Forcipules of your Asian 'pede my friend, otherwise you would probably view the P.murinus bite as "walk in the park".

They are on another level, pain talking... bad news. Like not even when Tom Sawyer remained mentally traumatized after spotting aunt Polly's underwear

You make me wonder again why people keep centipedes! Nothing against those who do, but never ever ever in my home!!!

 

[ErinM31]

After I got clamped on by an angry H.Gigas and had little to no side effects and just localised pain I decided I just had to experience the PAIN of an OBT bite... So I done it.. A few have seen my crying video but only 2 folks have seen this in its entirety... I was prepared for a bite and the T fell back in to her enclosure from about 6 inches high which was fine but in an uncontrolled environment if bitten you could launch a T across the room which is NOT good especially a heavy terrestrial... I was a curious idiot, this is not advisable EVER! EVER! Don't hate on this the T is fine but I wasn't lol, side effects for over a month, don't get bit folks...

Immediate regret lolol

The videos are no longer available? Here I was curious... NOT curious enough to repeat the “experiment”, mind you!

I think that the 'lock topic' smilies is lovely and that should be used for 'say' another thing. Do you agree?

Ah, 'pedes? No, they are of lovely as well.

Lol, by all means! I did not intend it as a “lock topic” emoticon but was locking my home against centipedes!

I love my millipedes but it helps that I have always found centipedes repulsive so I won’t be tempted to keep one. I wouldn’t trust myself otherwise, lol, as I’m now totally in love with pokies and I was never going to keep any of those venomous OW species...

Haha... impressive Shampain88.

Why did you go to the hospital? Purely pain control or were you having worrisome secondary symptoms?

He wanted to make sure that there was record of a tarantula bite just in case they were thinking of putting bans in place where he lives. Plus, he wanted to waste a whole lot of medical resources that could have been used on a genuine medical emergency.
I can't think of any other reason to do something so incredibly stupid and detrimental on a whole.

Haha... touché for that comment.

I personally don't find it so egregious, but I was just curious why he went to the hospital. There's nothing they would really do except dole out pain meds and muscle relaxers, unless he was having some other more serious symptoms.

P.murinus venom is pretty potent, to say the least. Indeed, you are right, you are right. Basically the 'Docs' can't do much, except 'monitoring' you. It's not potentially lethal, or life threatening, after all, so obviously a sorta of anti-venom doesn't exist.

But you don't want, after a bite from one of those, to leave nothing not 'considered'. Secondary post bites effects, not a good thing to deal with at all, can jump out, you never know.

E.R is strongly recomended, thus

You know when people scream and shout about socialist universal healthcare systems and how they are a horrendous waste because people don't want to pay for others who do stupid things and waste their tax dollars? This is exactly the scenario that they are referring to. And, unfortunately, they obviously aren't wrong in some cases. I am guessing if the medical care he received was coming directly out of his own pocket - he wouldn't have done what he did. But, wasting other people's hard earned tax money made it okay.
And I have gone through the process of fighting against bans being put in place and one of the first things by-law offices do is ask for area hospitals to submit their bite report statistics. Because why should other people be paying for it when they can ban those animals and save those resources for silly things... like children who have cancer and whatnot.
I'm not shocked either - there's a fool born every minute and all that.

You make a very strong argument, and quite frankly I agree with you on both points (waste of resources and negativity of a documented bite report). I guess although I don't have issue with the bite, I do find it odd that he went to the hospital. I mean, you know it's going to hurt and you know it's going to cramp. You could have done the bite experiment and just treated yourself at home. I guess the allure of "free" healthcare was too much, haha.

Oh I knew there would be one, I got a tetanus, antithetical hand bath and laughing gas! I've paid my way my whole adult life and if I seek medical attention that's got nothing to do with you or your moody hate... I think I done well, no serious lasting effects, no flesh eating symptoms, in fact all there was was pain, how does that equate to banning tarantulas? Should we ban the honey bee? I hate people like you!

Why did you bump this thread?

 

[Chris LXXIX]

Shampain88 was an idiot. He knows this. He knows this, rest assured. Yet he decided to share with us his pretty dumb move, I don't nor I can know why, but not one of my issues.

He's an idiot that, as far as I know, always worked, and always payed taxes. Taxes aka money that, straight out of his pockets, are used as well for cover his health care, if he needs, of course.

In Italy the whole thing works more or less that way. Granted, me (and other Italian keepers) wouldn't exactly do a 'bull' move like that.

But it's not right to bash him too much. As I've said, that was pretty dumb, there's no other words for describe that. But money of the public wasted? Lol, in Italy we give to everyone, including no name, no surname/s illegals that maybe are/were criminals in their nations (when not Islamic terrorists ready to 'Allah Oh Akbar' the innocents) health care for free on a regular basis... with my freaking money, now that's a waste as well, since they are by far more in numbers than Shampain88 ;-)
