Why do these disgusting posts show up on this forum? It’s loath able

Why do people who are disgusted by posts they find disgusting click on the posts to enter the post complaining that it's a disgusting post? Sounds like bitchy behavior to me.

Lots of things we do not know. Maybe the current fad for televised outrageously dangerous acts will end...

Rat lungworm is in the Big Island of Hawaii. Many people have gotten ill from this. The slug crawls over lettuce, and people get this infection by eating contaminated lettuce. Be careful when you eat lettuce home grown in Hawaii.
I told my brother who lives in the Big Island to buy mainland grown lettuce, and do not walk barefoot in the backyard.

Cook your slugs thoroughly to avoid infection.

It’s in the headline.

Any one can see that the headline is vile. That the post is unnecessary, as anyone with half a brain knows to not eat a slug

I do expect to get flamed and character-assassinated by objecting

I do it anyway.

Vile headline

Years back in Ketchikan a young drunken fisherman swallowed a rough-skinned newt on a dare. The newt produces a neurotoxin called tetrodotoxin and he was dead in a few hours.
