I’m personally sad the AOE2 scence isn’t here. But with time hopefully!

    That’s the one with the pimples, right? I still remember having seen that … I wanted to forget. Why did you remind me?

    I really did enjoy popping my own though. I just don’t understand why you would want to watch it from other people.

      Not just pimples, but cysts, boils, winter pores, ingrown hairs, ear wax, blackheads, ingrown toenails, splinters, abscesses, tooth extractions, spider bites, bot flies, ringworm… it was glorious

        spider bites

        I assure you, everything you find on various image search engines on this particular keywords will be wrong. Spider bites that result in serious complication are exceedingly rare. Almost undocumented since the time of proper record keeping and unheard of since anti-venoms where introduced in the US and Australia.

        With that out of the way … I hate you for making me read all those disgusting words … half of them I have a mental picture for.

          Yeah I think a lot of the “spider bites” you see are just misattributed staph infections

            There was a proper scientific paper, years ago. It looked at spider bites on doctors records and indeed, about 70% they could attribute to common skin conditions (of course, common with hindsight).

            That leaves very little “confirmed cases” of spider bites and in many of them it’s just because that’s what the chart said and no other explaination could be found.

            It’s really a very unfounded fear.

      I’m grossed out by people squeezing pimples but get satisfaction from watching people squeeze out blackheads. It’s weird.
