Have you…
..ever seen…
..anything more gross…
..in your kitchen??
Dumdad, you can’t play as I’ve seen the picture of the cow’s tongue and I can only imagine the brains….
But look.
It is gross isn’t it?
I mean, I’m not missing a slug loving gene am I??
Hmmm, I wonder if soft focus will help…
Nope, still shiny, still slimy, still disgusting.
What if I funky it up…
Would you put that on your wall??
Didn’t think so.
So what do I do?
There’s no gap under my cupboards now. It’s all sealed up with a lovely new plinth.
They must be getting in under my washer, and I really need my washer.
Arghhhh.
Blumming slugs.
If they’re not careful, the next photo I print will be something like this…
Only it will be a real big, red boot, very similar to one that I own…
(NB. If you haven’t read about any other of my slug encounters and you’re scared you might be missing out on some slug joy, then you will find them under the category ’slugs’. Yes, they have their own category.)
Cripes, don’t let The Frog Queen get hold of that plump slug or it’ll be dinner chez moi for sure.
I love the graphics especially the slug guts - how do you do that?
Hee hee,you know you want to taste it Dumdad. I can pop it in a jiffy bag and send it over??
And the picture doodling? I got me a Coral Paint Shop Pro x. £25 and a bit easier than some of the other ones. I’m still a novice, but I’m having fun.
The photo effects I do on Picassa which you can downoad for free. It’s really useful for resizing stuff and playing around with images.
Me no like slugs! YUK!!!
Give up. Make friends with them. Embrace the slug. (They make very good guard-dogs, you know - well, guard-slugs. Very good at keeping Greek men away.)
Yuk…Salt is what’s needed (or a three year boy with no fear). If you’re being kind, you could just offer the slug a saucer of beer…even so…yuk, yuk, yuk, yuk, yuk.
P.S…this is getting bizarre, I have the same floor tiles (but without the slug of course) ;-D
Yuck! My parents used to always put beer out in the garden to capture the slugs.
Whoa, Nellie! You all have big slugs there..no wonder you hate them. Ours here are no bigger than the nail on my little finger….what do you feed them? I can send you a chicken. They are lovely slug eaters and lay eggs as well (you turned me down on this offer before but methinks you should reconsider). I do like the funked out version tho…I would hang that on my wall.
Akela, me no like slugs either. Bleh.
Napoleon, next time you come round I will introduce you to one and you can give it a big manly hug.
21st CM, I just can’t bring myself to salt them. I just have this image of them fizzing. Eurghhhhh. And see how they spoil the lovely floor tiles…
i hate slugs.
We get slugs inside here in the Pacific NW (United States) a lot. There is nothing more disgusting than not watching out where you are walking and stepping on a slug with your bare feet. Their slime does not want to come off with soap, with water, with anything.
Ewwww! I symapthise! I used to get them when I rented a house, but I could never track down where they came from. I used to feel like a private detective, going round examining skirting boards.
oh man gross!
though i did see something worse in my kitchen once.
MAGGOTS.
i lived in a third-floor apartment with a skylight. and someone put garbage on the roof, right near the skylight. and then it rained very hard.
and maggots came raining in through the skylight cracks.
it is quite possibly the grossest thing that has ever happened to me in my entire long and gross-filled life.
(do i win anything?)
ewwww sluggy slugs. My hubby once let Sugar hold a slug when she was about 15 months. it took quite a deal of scrubbing to get the slime off her hands. ewwww…
This was not a good post to read while sick. That’s all I have to say.
Those boots are made for stomping?
Yes, we get slugs here! Lots and lots of slugs, and sometimes they do come indoors. I found something like that on my carpet, a good 20 feet away from the back door. I have no idea how long it took for it to make it OVER CARPET that far, but it left a nice silvery trail behind. Ugh!
I hope you figure out where they’re coming from soon! That’s icky!
Ugh. I am so sorry for you. Anything unwanted in the house is dreadful, but I think your slugs are worse even than the ants we get around here. The only trouble with squishing them will be cleaning all that mess off of your floor. You could use a magic wand, or some sort of repelling charm about now!
I hope you didn’t really stomp on that slug. It will be sad for the slug and it will make your boot all slimy. Better just pick it up with a paper towel and drop it in somebody’s garden. Preferably somebody who doesn’t care and has a lot of weeds. It’s always a tough choice to kill pests. Kill them kindly with beer, that may be the best thing to do. Don’t use any poisons. Somehow that seems so inhumane.
Salt, salt, salt is what you need! Pour it on, never mind the fizzing, then toast their innards on the radiator … oops, slipped back into my clearly warped childhood there … ahem, maybe go for the chicken approach?
It’s green??????!!!!!!!!
I didn’t know such a thing existed. That is quite possibly the worst thing I have ever seen in a kitchen and I’ve seen dead mice with their heads chewed off.
Hmmm. I’ll trade you your slug for some fire ants and a black widow spider.
The grossest thing I’ve ever seen is a friends cat bringing in a headless possum as a present. The cat was so proud of himself. He went and killed a chihuahua the following week and had to be quarantined.
If you print out Disco Slug on some nice shiny paper, I could matte it and frame it and TFYO would put it on her wall.
Eewwwwwww……
Funky slug looks somehow endearing… he’d definitely make it onto my loo wall!
Lori, Leeandaluu, thanks. I think you were writing while I was answering the otheres. X
Cami, I know. I hate them too.
Heffalump, oh the slime. Beurghhhhh.
Tina, I cannot detect where they’re getting in either. I thought I’d solved it, but no.
Bugger.
Avery they actually move quite fast.
I watched.
Laurie, you win. That is completely gross. Would you like a slug??
Corey, nooooooo. Bad daddy.
Kim, I am so sorry. Feel better soon. Have a slug of gin or something.
Mrs Weasley, I think someone already cast a spell on me and they sent me slugs.
Irene, I promise I’ve never hurt a slug. I can’t. But they’re so yuck. I do put them outside, but they like me so much they come back. Bleh.
Belle, I am quite scared. Hee hee.
Jolene, it looks like it’s in camouflage gear doesn’t it?
Though headless mice would be nasty too.
Hee hee. Jen you are so creative. And I would rather have the slug than the black widow spider.
RC, I know. Nobody needs to see this do they?
Dear Englishmum, you are mad. But I like you.
i’m so glad i won! i never won anything! yes, you can mail it to me.
i’ll give it a name and take very good care of it. it can live with my hundreds of pet maggots….
Bllllleeeeecccckkkk. I hate slugs. I hate slugs. I hate slugs.
Is it gone?
Laurie, LOL. You have kept the maggots as pets??
Deb, it is gone. For now…
