Like a corkscrew?
Kinda hard on the tiny ticks. Gods, I'm so afraid some are gonna get on my bed/cats...*sprays everything with disinfectant*

I was told never to do this. It rips off the body and leaves the head under the skin. But that's what my mother told me if I get a tick. So it may be different for animals.
I just called my mom to ask, this is how interested I am (because I had forgotten).
She said that if an animal gets a tick an you can get in deep enough with tweezers you get a good enough grip you could pull it out and its head too. There are insecticide shamppoo treatemnts you can get, but if there are a lot its better off taking it to a vet.
My mother is a licenced veterinarian. So shes a good a source as any.

Pvednes had this to say about Duck Tales:
Well, in future use a pair of tweezers and some alcohol, and you won't have to get it tested.
From my understanding, the takeing it to get tested was not only to cover your ownself, but also a local service to see if any of the local bugs happen to be packing. Were I live in Jersey is pretty much the northren most tip of the pine barrens, once you hit those areas you have some pretty bad Tick populations, deer ticks being pretty high. Iffin I rember right, I rember my old man haveing to bring in tick he pulled off his legs after drill weekends.

Well personally I'm TERRIFIED of anything even relating to zombies or undead (re: "What is your Inanest Fear?" entry) so, I'd probably just avoid that thread altogether...

If you replace vampires with Chocobo's, the hilarity level of that post goes up 10 fold, making it roughly twice that of Pi.

6.283185? That does not seem like that much.
and if it increased 10 fold would that mean the original number of funny was 1.2018?
Edit: I forgot to convert the measure of hilarity! DrPaintThinner fucked around with this message on 04-20-2005 at 09:40 PM.

I see you're a number buff. Well, I have a problem for you.
No, It's just gas, nevermind.

Verily, the chocolate bunny rabits doth run and play while `Doc gently hums:
That's a creepy optical illusion. It looks like the rabbit is moving faster than the racecar.
Things moving across your field of view seem to move more quickly than things moving directly towards or away from you. Also, larger things tend to look like they're moving more slowly than they really are.
Both of those play into that perception, here.

They smell bad. And they grunt when they're angry.
Rabbits are almost as scary as ducks.

When I was a kid, I used to scream at my cousin's rabbits and chase them around their cage.
My parents told me it had run away.

From the book of MorbId, chapter 3, verse 16:
My family had a pet rabbit when I was really little. It smashed its own skull in on the side of the cage.My parents told me it had run away.
By "smash it's own skull in" you mean your dad did it am i rite?

JooJooFloping:
I had a pet rabbit when I was a kid and I didn't like it very much. It was nice enough but it pooped all over the damn place. Guess that's why no one was terribly upset when the neighbor's cat killed it.
Rabbits really are not very good pets. They spurn human contact and are not affectionate at all, and are impossible to potty train.

That actually explains a bit.
