I hate bees and spiders and OMG KILL IT WITH FIRE

[JLynnCarr]

On another note...I was at work yesterday and I look in the Conference Room and there's a small snake (maybe 1 to 1 1/2 feet long). Normally, I'm not afraid of snakes, but this one startled me because it was unexpected. I yelped and told my boss and she ran to the other side of the building. (I work for a town, BTW)

I can't identify the snake because I'm no herpetologist and I'm not playing with a potentially poisonous creature. So, my boss calls the Police Dept. to have an officer come up to remove it. Meanwhile, I'm keeping the little bugger locked up in the Conference Room.

A short while later, one of the officers comes up, ID's the snake and removes it. Turns out it was a garter snake that had come in after both prey and warmth. I would've asked to hold it but it was aggressive because it was scared and secreting some kind of goo.

Glad I saw it first and not my boss 'cause she would've had a heart attack and I would've had to call 911.

Real or Fake?! Amazing Pictures of Brazilian Apeman Resurfaces

The pictures of an apeman found in the jungles of Brazil and published in a magazine in the 1930’s have resurfaced on the internet raising debates as to its authenticity. Het Leven first published the picture in 1937. The picture of the ape-like-man has been challenged on many fronts. While some think it’s real, many believe it is the work of a very good make-up artist. The picture which went viral on Facebook and Reddit has been dissected by critics. They argue that the mouth and brow are stuck into place using rudimentary make-up. They identify that the line of the prosthetic mouth which covers the chin up to the bridge of the nose is visible. Observers have also pointed out that the forehead will always be covered with hair in any make-up situation to blend in the prosthesis.

Real or Fake? What do you think?

Looks like Rob Liefield.

It's true, I can't see his feet.

Needs more pouches, though.

Reminded me of Ratboy.

This is a sea lamprey, pulled from the Raritan River here in Joisey. Apparently, there's been a significant increase in the number of 'em lately.

And you all thought Cthulhu related horrors only existed in New England. Silly humans!

[Captain Russ]

Silly New Jerseyan, everybody knows the old ones live beyond the veil!

[Timothy225]

Yeah, Russ, but who'd have thunk the veil would be rent asunder near the freakin' Raritan? Camden I can see, for in that town lies madness.

Definitely makes my pineal gland quiver, let me tell ya.

Feel like taking a vacation to Guam to check out all those laws and rules Iggy keeps quoting? Ok, but this will be waiting for you:

That thing has shown up in here before, and I will repeat my statement that it looks like it would compliment some melted butter QUITE well.

Pretty much sums up the entire thread:
