who believe drinking the snail's mucus can cure certain ailments.

That was my thought... but then again, “running” could be a relative term.

The giant African land snail is causing problems for Floridians

This kind of talk is divisive, the snails just want a better life for themselves and their offspring. They should be given a path to come out of the shadows and, eventually, vote democrat.

You just gotta wonder sometime who the first person was that looked at one of those things and said “Hey! I Can Eat That!”...

Same with raw clams... “Snot on the Half Shell”. Ugh...

I still can’t believe how large those things are.

And every garden slug I’ve seen doesn’t have a shell. These do.

Damned radiation mutant slugs... there’s a cheesy horror flick plot lurking here somewhere, I can sense it.

...or, surely, our arsenal has Salt Tipped Nuclear Warheads, no?

Or pork tipped warheads for Islamics?
