Just been bitten by..

[Tom|Nbk]

If you're feeling funny, don't worry. It's just all of the juices draining out of you. Pretty soon you'll look like this:

And when you do, which you will, I suggest you post pictures.


Disclaimer: This may not actually happen.

I actually Lol'd.

It's just testing to see if your edible.
If you are it will tell it's (thousands of) friends and then they'll come back later to eat you.

It might be after your grapes.

You're going to turn into a lady.

Didn't you know thats how lady boys come about ?

What colour is that ladybird? The picture isn't entirely clear. Red and black ones are harmless, but some of the funny coloured ones are mildly poisonous, so the area of the bite might get a bit irritated.

It was more orange than red and luckily a dollop of antiseptic cream seems to have calmed things down a bit.. not sure if I'm going to wake up in the morning with a swollen limb

Nah, according to Wikipedia you'd have to eat hundred of ladybirds to be poisoned by them.

It's a harlequin, so waste it.

Why no pics of the horrific bite?

Why no pics of the horrific bite?

It was an old one, he is still trying to find tweezers small enough to remove its false teeth from his leg so he can see the bite.

I'm a bit worried as to why you want to see photos of my naked leg but here goes:

You can see the bite towards the right of the picture and the discolouration of the leg to the left of it (sort of blue veiny stuff)..

You need to get out more!

thought that myself looked like hairy tinfoil at first

 

[Raikiri]

Yeah, its a suprisingly painful bite.

Kind of off topic but can anyone ID this?

Thanks

Lily beetle I think (well that's what I know it as anyway).

Lily beetle I think (well that's what I know it as anyway).

Scarlet lily beetle (Lilioceris lilii) according to google.

Thanks, had no idea what it was

I remember a news report years ago when the Greenfly population dwindled and there was a huge surplus of lady bugs, pretty much all humans were fair game with regards food supply. I think the reporter on BBC news got bit while doing the report but this could have been a weak attempt at humor.

Don't want to alarm you mate but that yellow one is one of those Farrian (sp?) beetles. We used to be warned about them at school about 30 years ago, Some kind of weird wind blows them over from Egypt or summit.
Anyway get yourself to the hospital dude as the infection can cause you to lose a limb.

You gotta cut the leg off tbh.

By tomorrow he won't need to.

An old woman who lives near me just got bit in the head by a rat while sitting and watching TV - no joke!

Where the hell do you live? the dump?
