First topic message reminder :

Sean is a bummer.

If I was to lay atop of Pattison I'm pretty sure her cans would earth the charge.

by **Pal Joey** Tue 01 Dec 2015, 10:50 am

Hope Tony wins it... if he's still there. We can get delayed episodes but I haven't bothered watching. Is that Lady C still there? Never seen someone so out of place in that environment. Quite amusing to watch her contorted facial expressions. Those couple of tarts are so hollow.
Yvette, although not so pleasant to look at was actually more of a 'team player', no?

by **seanmichaels** Tue 01 Dec 2015, 10:56 am

Yvette is ok - half decent old school. Probably would. I think they are all quite likeable this year. Not really a stand out b3ll end amongst them.

by **Pal Joey** Tue 01 Dec 2015, 11:01 am

Chris Eubank has some bell end characteristics. Sort of annoying personality, imo. Then again he's an ex-boxer... whadda-you-expect.

Jeff????

For any newcomers to this website, I had a case of orchitis / epididymitis and went to a quack who put me on the wrong antibiotics (he didn't even bother with a culture the first round), and then several months of Cipro and then Sulfas.

The antibiotics were not making a serious difference until I started giving myself prostate massages, followed by sitz baths (or sitting in a hot bath with your legs lifted out--this draws the blood to your groin). The reason for this is simple. The prostate is encased in a barrier that usually keeps infections out; but once infected, blood flow is limited and antibiotics don't penetrate well. Prostate massages + a hot sitz bath will increase perfusion of the prostate, drawing blood (with antibiotics) into the prostate. This is the only thing that worked for me.

I do massages once or twice a week, as well as hot baths, and so far so good (it's been almost a year).

So he sits in a bath fingering his bottom. Could well be Jeff.

No mention of jazz though so I'm not entirely sure.

TSMR is out this evening and whilst this is not me in my ongoing quest to alleviate my quite crippling back pain I am more than willing to give it a go. Although he does not specifically mention Jazz I am fairly sure it will help things along. I am thinking early 70s Miles Davis, Bitches Brew or something of that ilk.

Another gaddamn salad, but manned it up with a mini pork and black pudding pie. 7/10

I am not aware how far the prostate is up your backside (generally), but given the legs will have to be over the side of the bath, I think one would need a tool of some nature to get the required reach.

by **seanmichaels** Tue 01 Dec 2015, 1:01 pm

Perhaps an electric toothbrush attached to a snorkel?

On Countryfile this week, they had a report on trials of mass producing insects to provide high protein sustainable feed for livestock. Any of the above you would recommend as nutritious?

Ants are pretty nutritious.

Spiders are eaten in quite a few countries. I wouldn't eat a centipede. I imagine it is like trying to break into a crab but tasting like sh*te. Ants are eaten all over South America but you'd need a lot of them for a decent meal. Not sure about hornets and wasps. I think they eat them in Asia but could be wrong.

I'd go for the Goliath bird eater. Decent sized meal.

by **seanmichaels** Tue 01 Dec 2015, 1:35 pm

Ok windows. Knowledge test. I am going to google the biggest insect in the world. You have to tell me what it is without looking it up.

by **seanmichaels** Tue 01 Dec 2015, 1:38 pm

Followed by the largest living anthropod?

I won't know the answer so save yourself the bother. I'm not a f*cking entomologist, I just like them.

It's probably a beetle of some description. Rhinoceros beetle maybe?

Arthropod will be the Scolapendra Gigantica possibly...

Though those big spider crabs are huge

Surely that's a mutant species like the Octopus Hamster

I have seen a sharktopus, so maybe DAVE...

And a whalewolf apparently

Spoiler:

by **seanmichaels** Tue 01 Dec 2015, 1:56 pm

Japanese Spider crab the biggest, an American lobster the heaviest.

by **rIck_dAgless** Tue 01 Dec 2015, 1:57 pm

Nice, I (kind of) got an arthropod question right.

See, I do listen to you Tino...

by **seanmichaels** Tue 01 Dec 2015, 1:58 pm

Hold on, the coconut crab is supposedly the biggest arthropod

They are recommended for beginners. Very placid and easy to look after.

Has it ever thrown hairs? Do they shoot them like porcupines? Is it venomous?

If you bothered to listen to Tina like I do you'll know it's happened a couple of times but only when they get distressed

For the sake of WTF!

It is called 'urticating' when they flick their hairs. They use their back legs. Ours has only done it a couple of times, back when we first got her. It is only when they are distressed for some reason.

Yes they are venomous. They have fangs and she could a deliver a bite if she wanted but you'd really have to annoy it to provoke a bite. There are hardly any reports of them biting in captivity, that's why they are recommended for beginners. Even if she did bite, it is no worse than a bee sting.

At least you can pick spiders up.

The filter feeding Wood Shrimp make an unusual addition to mature peaceful community aquariums with a high flow rate. Instead of claws, the first set of legs have evolved special fan-like attachments (or chelae) which the shrimp use to filter microscopic particles of food from the flowing water
