On vacation and found the world’s largest centipede species (scolopendra gigantea) chilling beside my bed… do I burn the house down?
I’m holding it as far away from my body as possible, so it looks a little massive. IRL it was about a foot long, which was 11 inches too many.
I had an injury that required me to have my finger amputated so I asked them if I could keep it and they said I could. Feel free to ask me any questions about it.
I've already contacted the police.
UPDATE: Since a lot of you are asking, there hasn't been any big real update from law enforcement. I made the report and they told me no nearby hospitals have reported losing anything like this. As of right now, that's the only info they have.
A lot of you are mentioning rat race, which is pretty ironic considering I'm Italian
Edit - Turns out they’re laundry scented beads, they just don’t have a smell anymore. Explains why they broke apart so easily. Owner was completely baffled and guessed his GF did it from something she saw online.
Little white balls and the half circles are orange. Crush almost like a little piece of chalk, but doesn’t leave a mark like chalk. This is sorta out of left field but wasn’t sure if anyone has encountered this before. Vehicle was brought to us a Facebook marketplace purchase. Owner and purchaser didn’t know anything about it
Any idea what the little beads are?
i put one on last night and the first picture was from this morning and the second picture is from when i put one on before school then took it off after school
My phone sucks so I think the last post I made made everyone go "ew?" Blue ass bread! so fucking good. Took me ages and ages to make the blueberry basil reduction and flavoured cream. The potluck folks seemed to think it was okay! I'm shidding blewww
Found this when I was at AAC Dallas in 2019. It still cracks me up. Let the thoughts roll
This is the same woman who fed you the other day and gave you money you entitled, selfish pig.
My daughter has a 2025 Honda CR-V Hybrid, and recently the doors started sticking when opening. We found sticky red goo on the bottom door weatherstripping/gaskets.
Looking further, the substance seems to cover much of the underside of the car on both sides, especially around the rocker panels / under-door area. It is only on the bottom/undercarriage area - nothing on the exterior side panels.
I scraped some off and it’s a red, viscous, sticky goo, kind of like dried jelly or jam. It looks like it may have been more liquid when it first got on the car, because there are drip/run patterns. I included a picture of some of it on white paper.
Odd detail: it’s water soluble. If I put a little on my fingers, it dissolves pretty easily under the faucet while rubbing my fingers together. I briefly tasted a tiny bit - probably dumb, I know -and it didn’t have any strong or obvious taste, though it left that spot on my tongue feeling slightly odd (maybe that's psychological).
Other notes:
Has anyone seen anything like this? Do car washes use any red/pink undercarriage chemicals that could dry into sticky goo?
Also looking for advice on removal. I cleaned the door gaskets with a rag and warm water, but the underside probably needs a hot-water pressure wash. Since it’s water soluble, I’m wondering whether it might slowly rinse off from driving in rain, but I’d rather get it off properly.
Edit: I emailed the car wash, and they responded: "Our undercarriage wash just sprays water underneath the car, we don't have any chemicals that spray under the car."
My friend was helping his Mom move out and found this while clearing out her closet.
He asked her and she says she found it on a beach when she was younger - it looks like a rock but its weight and texture feels off. Any thoughts?
Genuinely so unlucky for the both of us
