these things have exploded all over my yard this summer, and i have no idea where they came from.
like, they've always been around in small numbers. but this year there's hundreds of them. it's getting annoying because they eat my cat's food and the cats don't want to touch it after they've slimed it. you'd think salt in it would fuck them up, but no.

I once stepped on one of these barefoot in my basement. It was a big fucker too. had a 3 inch stain on my heel for a month that just would not wash off.
I stepped on one outside, and half of it inflated like a balloon, then it coiled up in a ball and died.
Honestly felt bad, then I did it again but this time it’s guts actually popped out and it took a few minutes to die.
Where do you live where you get slugs in your house? I’m guessing somewhere tropical? I’d honestly prefer finding one of those than see some bugs; a line of ants, a silverfish, millipede, fly, bee, spider, etc. slugs are cool, bugs suck.
I like them, they cant hurt you, they're just little jelly bags that cant live without moisture. They can be pests but they're not mean things, they dont want to hurt you or anything, same with snakes. Snakes are very gentle and inquisitive. Maybe watch some videos of people handling pet slugs and snakes, it could help you to learn why people like them, how they're beneficial, and what others like about them
Not that anon but I lived in a very old town house once a- the basement was just a pit made of dirt and those slugs were everywee, they even stole food from the kitchen.
That said I still think they're beautiful, I just really hate stepping on them.
Numbers of truth.
Snakes are sacred animals.
Slugs are Aetheric ones linked to the gentle intent of Outer Gods.
Octopuses and Crows are mystics who can teach you how to speak without talking, and listen without hearing.
I have trillions that eat all the detritus in the kitchen at night. I don't think it's a big deal, they're just weird little animals.
Reminder that slugs have evolved from snails and are therefore the superior form.
i want a dogwife
I thought that word was an automatic insta-ban

Move the cat food inside
they're 5 semi-ferals that are all fixed, and i'm not allowed to bring any pets inside. even my old dogs had to stay outside.
Decide on feeding times anonly put it out for less than an hour.
Or even just put it up at night, leopard slugs are nocturnal.

don't these things have things in their shit that can kill you?
Their entire body. A lot of pretty plants can too, the solution is to not eat them.
Or if youre so into the idea of eating a slug, just cook the damn thing first.
>Why did God make these things?
because He hates you
we all do
They have interesting mating rituals.
Rubbing their penes against each other and then saving each others sperm in a little sac.
For me it's the part where they stab each other, ngl I wish I were a gastropod so I could have bizarre violent gay sex
It's ass looks like a frog
At least this one got cool spots, dark brown ones look a bit like live turds.

just don't eat them, they can give you incurable brain eating parasites
If you need to be told this the parasites will probably starve once they get to your skull
You can't tell me to not eat every random living thing I come across
What kind of fucking idiot eats slugs?
Just put a shell on them first and they're a delicacy
hon hon hon hon
It was a dare or bet or something.
There have been at least 2 cases of australian kids who were dared to eat a slug and got some brain-eating parasites as a result
Good riddance

Hoping the replies in this thread will help me appreciate them more. I find slugs disgusting and creepy, especially when there's multiple.
Nothing some salt cant fix
i'd freak if they were in my house but otherwise snails and slugs are surprisingly inquisitive and personable i just love them
Look on the bright side, at least they are slow as fuck. Unlike roaches, who are disgusting and fly on your face.
I love slugs so much, bros.
How the fuck did it enter your house?
Also theyre bros because they kill other slugs but dont touch live plants.
wtf, slugs have eaten my strawberries and cukes
I think he meant that particular kind of slug

slug hands typed this
>slug hands
Had one crawl through an open window
There's an easy solution for that
>orange blood everywhere
just keep the room lit
>They're more disgusting than snakes
Which doesn't say much since both animals are adorable
This, disliking either of these animals is a form of spiritual illness.
