thumbs down on tickness. cannot be cute. NEXT!

As someone hip-deep in antibiotic therapy for late, disseminated Lyme disease, I loved this and giggled immoderately. I’m visiting for the first time in a few weeks, so I missed commenting on this while it was current. I wish I’d been here at the time, because a couple of posters mentioned burning ticks with matches or cigarettes, or smearing them with Vaseline to get rid of them. PLEASE DON’T: they’ll let go, but not before injecting gut contents into you, and that’s exactly what you want to avoid. You want to grasp the tick with tweezers as close to the skin as possible, and pull straight out. The Lyme Disease Association’s website has more complete instructions on what to do if you find an attached tick.

Glovy — um — you’re not making much sense, y’know, anatomically.

Everyone who says this isn’t cute…GROW SOME BALLS….preferably, so big that you can’t type anymore

I may not be the last one to comment, but I bet I’m the last NEW person to comment!

(Of course, that’s due to a recent move and having been net-less for a week and a half now *gasp*)

While I’m with those who say “Not cute”, I realize cute is subjective. I’m also with those who say babies are not really that cute. Give me the option of holding a baby or a puppy, I’ll take the puppy 10 times out of 10. I simply don’t find it cute as it’s a blood-sucking parasite. (One of its brethren gave a dear friend of mine incurable Lyme disease, which is also most definitely not cute.)

The pun, however… moderately cute.

Way to go with this one, Meg. You had to know it would be controversial when you posted it!

Goodness, I just remembered this! Bugs can be cute! Anyone remember the woggle-bug from the Marvelous Land of Oz? Here’s a pic:

Not cute, even if it’s funny. But not cute.

metsakins: well, I say Bible, but really it was more of a pamphlet…

Cute as a bug.
Exactly as cute as a bug
