Why?
Just because they crawl into your ear with that slightly ticklish feeling and start crunching sofly into your brain?

Maybe they're an in-law visiting again.

That along with your rencarnation post, is the wittiest culmination of posts I've read in days.

Now, I'll ruin it....

Or they have need to keep the moisture level just right, because the cantalope water doesn't absorb as quickly as the brain water would.

"Slugs? We must not have them around here. I don't even know what one looks like... maybe a snail without a shell?"

Hun, you have slugs. Slugs are almost everywhere.
Some look like that, most are longer than snails, the ones around here are about twice as long as your middle finger and dark brown with black spots.

Don't pour beer on them! Beer just gets them drunk! Seriously!

Beer is used as a garden remedy for slugs because when you place little dishes of it out, they come and drink it. Then they get so sloshed that they fall into the dish and drown. Pouring it on slugs on your kitchen floor would just make them invite more slugs over for a kegger.

Ghetto Slugs...

Here in Chicagoland, its too cold for slugs of the invertebrate variety, but we have our own kind!

Any Saturday night, down in the south side where I hang out at the blues clubs, you hear them gangsters going -POP- ...tinkle tinkle...

In the morning you see the shell casings all over the place...

Needless to say, one wants to avoid these Ghette Slugs...

They come in 38 caliber, 45 caliber... etc.

Guys and the Urge to kill

Me, myself being a guy, I happen to know something about killing defenseless animals. I am anti-gun, so that eliminates anything the size of a mouse or larger, assuming it has a skeleton, but I know many guys who would jump at the chance to shoot at, say a rabbit. It has something to do with the fact that our sex drive translates to our violent tendencies, whether they're getting fulfilled or not. Some guys need rough sex and love to kill, some love rough sex and hate to kill. But either way, it has to do with our original caveman instinct, as someone mentioned. We just love to kill. Also, when killing disgusting things (such as slugs), we are generally expressing our latent fear of those objects, whereas women tend to express their fears and have either braver women or men take care of them, like the original slug problem. Salt does work, of course, and the urban legends are mostly true, but there's only like one reported case in all of history. Anyhow, being something of a gardener, I hate slugs, and being something of a weenie (I usually call it being honest), I have a fear/hatred of slugs that is somewhere in line with spiders, and therefore, I simply step on them and wipe them up, just as with the other bugs. I suggest you do the same in future, oh, and (though I'm just as silly for posting this), why don't we stop talking about slugs? It seems like the subject has been more or less exhausted. Anyhow, it's 4:30-ish am where i'm at, so I'm gonna get some shuteye.
