WHAT DOES JOHN LOCKE LOOK LIKE? DOES HE LOOK LIKE A BITCH?

This thread is awesome in itself, due to the circumstances described, and is made even more awesome by your avatar. :lol Where did that come from?
 
The second news post simply states "Domestic Violence", not against whom the violence was directed.

Perhaps he was just getting revenge for what the female motorist did to him 20 years prior?

Do not Google Brown Recluse bite. I REPEAT, DO NOT GOOGLE BROWN RECLUSE BITE. *Shudder*


I don't have to google it, I had one last year. It looks alot worse that it feels, but it felt pretty f'n bad. I still have scars from it. I wouldn't wish that on anyone.

Aren't recluses the spider whose venom causes cellular death? As in your flesh dies... *shudder*

Yea. But only a small percentage of people will suffer from necrosis(sp?) the rotting of the flesh. A friend of mine apprantly attracts these things in his sleep...been bitten twice, neither time resulted in the flesh rot.

Yeah, I was bitten by one last summer and I just had severe itching and a rash around the bite. No necrosis here!

I now have the power to look under the sheets before I slide in though.
 
I was bitten in the leg by a brown recluse or something similar in college. The necrosis left a hole in my leg for about a month before it healed. I've got an oval M&M-sized scar there that doesn't have much feeling. I forgot to beat someone afterwards, though.
