So I got bit by a snake a week or two ago. After that, the raggedy scab where it bit me kept on snagging on stuff and hurting like a real MF. I decided to examine the area more closely and found a few tiny splinter-like dealies sticking out every so slightly from my skin. They were so small that regular tweezers were not enough. I petitioned the wife for better ones and she delivered. What I extracted looked like this:
Can you believe it? An entire penny lodged in my finger? Ok – the penny is just there for scale to illustrate how incredibly freaking small a SNAKE TOOTH can be. I had a couple of these buggers stuck in me and they really hurt. Case closed. Let’s talk about what we’ve learned here today:
- Pennies look big when the camera gets close.
- Snakes teeth still look pretty small when the camera gets close.
- It takes about 40 shots to get a good snake tooth photo.
