5 Terrifyingly Advanced Ways Animals Know How to Kill #2. Tarantula Hawk Paul Nylander, via Tucson Citizen Allow me to set your mind at ease for once: A tarantula hawk is not a flying tarantula. But let's go back to that stinger: It's roughly a third of an inch long, which is a bigger blade than you're allowed to bring on an airplane these days. San Dieguito River ParkWhen the guy whose job it is to take the worst pain ever starts describing his feelings like the tagline to a horror movie, that shit has as astronomically high likelihood of being real. And while it is noted that the tarantula hawk is "relatively docile" and "rarely stings without provocation," don't you dare take any of that premature comfort. The tarantula hawk is one of the few insects that get drunk recreationally. So even if they're not actively out to kill you, just remember: Somewhere out there in nature, somebody's drunk driving a tiny helicopter with a 1/3-inch blade instead of a bumper, coated in the most painful thing on the planet. #1.

7 Scientific Reasons a Zombie Outbreak Would Fail (Quickly) Biting is a Terrible Way to Spread a Disease Hey, remember that time when that dog got rabies, and then a day later, every single other dog on the continent had it, except for a small band of survivors huddled in a basement? No? That never happened? Nearly all of the zombie movies agree on one thing: They reproduce like a disease, one that spreads via a bite from the infected (like they have a virus carried by zombie saliva or whatever). But this also means their spread should be subject to the same rules of a normal epidemic, and biting is a shitty way to get an epidemic going. The successful diseases have some really clever way to invisibly spread from victim to victim. Though Google Image Search does turn up a large volume of zombie porn But let's say there is an outbreak, like if one zombie was able to bite 30 people in the crowd at an Insane Clown Posse concert before they figured out it wasn't part of the show. Remember the SARS outbreak? No one was overlooked.
Astrological Personality Traits - Cancer Cancer is a Cardinal water sign, ruled by the moon. As the fourth sign of the zodiac, the Cancer individual is a deeply emotional person inside, but is smooth and confident on the outside. Their first love is of home and family and they are nurturing and caring in the family setting, creating a cozy, comfortable, safe existence behind the doors of their own home. Famous and historical characters sharing this sign include Princess Diana (July 1), Nelson Mandela (July 18), and O.J. Simpson (July 9). Although many Cancer personalities make a real mark on the world, they are emotionally never far from home and hearth. For those with a cancer child, you have a loving kid with a long memory, who never forgets an emotional event. Adults under the Cancer sign will be dedicated workers, and will do well at keeping their work and home lives separated. If you have found a romantic partner in a Cancer, you have a caring, insightful, and sentimental partner indeed. Custom Search Message Board
