Y'know I misinterpreted for a second and thought you were putting a sea cucumber in your anus and then cumming on a crab

[–] Kowowow@lemmy.ca 5 points 6 months ago

I love the idea that it wasn't planned like the guy just wanted to be safe and blasted the crab

I thought they were shooting a cucumber out of their ass as a projectile.

Oh I'm certain no-one will use this template in a more immature way

I don't think it can get any more graphic than eviscerating yourself and covering your oponent with your own guts!

(Some sea cucumbers do this, others produce a sticky substance specifically for this purpose.)

You are my favorite user on Lemmy. A+ work.

IIRC that’s how they eat, not defend, but either way hilarious

[–] weariedfae@lemmy.world 11 points 6 months ago (1 children)

It's both, IIRC depends on the species but some have those creepy noodly things to eat and some eject stringy viscera to distract the predator and skedaddle.

Skedaddle, what a criminally underused term

[–] TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world 8 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I defend myself this way as well.

[–] Dnn@lemmy.world 7 points 6 months ago

Weirdo. That's how I mark my property.

If someone threatens you, just fart your lungs all over that bastard.
