 |
|
Are there scorpions (or cousins) in Korea? We saw this thing on the sand volleyball court on Yongsan last weekend, and it looks like a clawless scorpion - maybe a bit thinner and longer? - w/a double pronged tail...We flipped it off and kept playing..
Tonight, I saw one crawling on my floor. I picked it up in a tissue, and it started thrusting w/its tail...
Anyone know what this might be? |

i'm impressed that you knew what i was talking about....thanks! |
I'm astounded you confused a scorpion with an earwig.
BTW, I have two lampin' on the wall outside my apartment door; and, no, I didn't hallucinate them.
PS - they're more timid than a penis in cold water, but for kicks try to get one to bite you. There's a singular experience. |

From the linked Wikipedia page:
"In Scotland Earwigs are sometimes referred to as 'Forky Tailies'"
Is this a joke from somebody trying to mock the Scottish? It's hilarious. |
