I was totally sober when I did it... I was up late w/a sick child and went out for a smoke... I would much rather run into a slug then what I did today... find my "close call" thread... THAT will make you shudder!

You ain't seen a slug until you've seen the huge monstrosties of the Pacific Northwest...Banana Slugs.

These guy's are all over gippsland where i used to live ,and this guy is only a little one
Stepping on a slug has to be one of the most disgusting things in the world. My dad gets them really bad in his front yard, and I've finally learned not to go out barefootedOriginally Posted by maddensmom
Oh yeah, I forgot to add, once on my patio I found one almost as big as my foot (and I wear an 8 1/2). Needless to say, I quit going out there without shoes...can you imagine what it would feel like to step on one of those??
I was hiking in a state park on the coast of Washington & came across a group of Banana slugs -thought I was seeing things-made the trail a bit slimy-Originally Posted by Arlyn
