Rub the stick back and forth against the other to generate free wifi for the worms. They can't repay you in away way but they will be very thankful

They can show their thanks by crawling into your bed at night when you are at your most vulnerable deepest stage of sleep.

Worms are centrists and loooove debating in the marketplace of ideas. You can lure them out with a makeshift political compass.

For some reason most of them turn out to be fascists though.

Tremors prequel

[–] lugal@sopuli.xyz 21 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Please put an NSFW tag on this. I was on the train and when I saw this I had to start furiously masterbating. Everyone else gave me strange looks and were saying things like “what the fuck” and “call the police”. I dropped my phone and everyone around me saw this image. Now there is a whole train of men masterbating together at this one image. This is all your fault, you could have prevented this if you had just tagged this post NSFW.

You think rubbing sticks starts a fire, but in reality it's the worms that start the fire with their Annelid Magick.

The worms are summoned to protect their creator from being exorcised. In this depiction, you can see the exorcism waves being emitted from the cross.

Sea Gulls do this but with their feet and not sticks. The worms think it's raining from the sound and come up to the surface to get eaten.

What the heck is even the right explanation for this?

[–] wabafee@lemm.ee 15 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

Not sure if it's a genuine question but I'll try to answer, I think when worms detect vibration they associate it as rain, that is why they go up ground to prevent drowning.

Edit: I got curious and it turns out my assumption was false, looks like it might be because it's easier to migrate, then there is also to avoid predator.
