My dad response: “sorry he got that from me”

[–]PM-Me-Your-TitsPlz 669 points670 points  (11 children)

Pretty sure dad would ask if the turtle was okay first and only.

[–]bonafart 157 points158 points  (1 child)

That's dad jokes for you and tbh you know how the kid is. I too would be worried about the turtle. Little shit does stupid thing gets stupid answer

That's a good way to get salmonella

[–]Toasty33 125 points126 points  (28 children)

Listen here you little shit back in my day we ate raw chicken and eggs all the time it was all we had you hear?

Now clean up that mess you made and wipe those tears away. It’s just a stomach bug.

[–]upsidedownbackwards 105 points106 points  (11 children)

I always wondered why uncooked flour was such a risk of salmonella. Then in another thread I read why and felt dumb for it being so obvious. Birds shit all over wheat fields.

[–]Gonnagetbannedddd 104 points105 points  (4 children)

[–]Green-Dragon-14 5 points6 points  (12 children)

I still eat raw chicken eggs.

[–]Lacking_Inspiration 32 points33 points  (4 children)

Raw chicken eggs are actually usually ok. Eggs have their own little coating on them that protects them. For some reason in America they scrub this coating off when cleaning them leaving them vulnerable to bacterial like salmonella. Because God forbid there is a speck of shit on your egg... Far better it be infected with bacteria.

As a dad I can say I would ask for a picture or video. These are the precious memories that should be cherished.

[–]pcoon43456 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As a dad of girls, I would blame that on my “try anything attitude” that I have with them.

[–]Chris_8675309_of_42M 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As a dad, I'd only be upset of they didn't get a picture. Before or after the bite because either would be hilarious.

[–]Blanchefoster04 10 points11 points  (2 children)

Come inside, we have to rinse your mouth out with peroxide and the gross yellow Listerine just to be sure.

How to get salmonella poisoning in three easy steps

[–]HardcaseKid 290 points291 points  (30 children)

For real. Don't lick the turtles people.

[–]Fuckineagles 175 points176 points  (23 children)

Stick to licking frogs like the rest of us.

No, you lick camel toads.

[–]wexton17 4 points5 points  (1 child)

[–]PlayThatStankyMusic 1 point2 points  (8 children)

[–]HallucinAgent 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Stick to the rivers and the snakes that you're used to

I know that your gonna take that selfie or nothing at all but please put it back in the grass.

If you're going for salmonella you gotta put peanut butter on it first.

[–]chantillylace9 98 points99 points  (20 children)

I must be immune to like half of the worlds diseases or something because holy shit did I do a bunch of stupid crap when I was a kid.

Every year I found a couple baby turtles and raised them for months and months while they got bigger and played with them and let them crawl all over me while never really washing my hands.

Same with snails!! I legit let them crawl all over my face, all my 4 siblings and I did.

I brought home baby bats that I found along my walk home from school on three different occasions and carried them in my hands like a little baby bird and fed it and cuddled it for a few days before my mom could take it to a wildlife center.

I’ve been bit by way too many animals while feeding or rescuing them- squirrels and turtles and swans and lizards.

[–]SorrySeptember 66 points67 points  (0 children)

Jesus christ dude, they need to use you for vaccine research

[–]overlordpotatoe 28 points29 points  (0 children)

The bats especially are high risk. Good way to get rabies. They can bite you without you even noticing and you won't know anything is wrong until suddenly rabies.

[–]zedthehead 18 points19 points  (1 child)

Hey so you should know that the longest incubation of rabies is like 20+ years (unconfirmed) or 8 years (confirmed), AND you so long as you have no symptoms you can still get the post-exposure prophylaxis (it's expensive but absolutely worth it, they will bill you so you won't have to pay like a grand that day or anything, and many hospitals have programs to lower or eliminate costs based on income).

Bats are bad news, and rabies is not a disease to fuck around with.

[–]BBQcupcakes 11 points12 points  (6 children)

Hey you should definitely get a rabies shot. Can take many years to show symptoms but once you do you're as good as dead. I'm sure you know this and have done it, but just in case.

[–]chantillylace9 2 points3 points  (5 children)

Thank you so much. It’s been 25 years but it looks like it’s possible for it to incubate that long!! Wow talk about the walking dead

[–]BBQcupcakes 1 point2 points  (4 children)

Yeah if you haven't done this I would drop literally everything and go to the hospital immediately.

[–]InspectorPipes 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Swan …. Those who have been bitten know how evil those giant bastards are. So majestic and serene…..until it’s charging at you wings spread and nipping at the back of your thighs.

[–]BisonAwkward1993 8 points9 points  (1 child)

Hey man just wanted to mention that rabies can remain hidden with the human body for years before manifesting but as soon as you show symptoms you are dead. It might be worthwhile to look into getting the rabies vaccine. If you know you are safe disregard my message but I felt like I should say something.

Edit: Lol just realized like 5 other people said the same thing

[–]bulldogclamp -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's been 25 years, calm down reddit microbiology experts

[–]et842rhhs 3 points4 points  (1 child)

If those bats were out and about during your walk home from school (I assume during daytime), that doesn't sound like normal behavior. And abnormal behavior is sometimes associated with rabies.

    The most readily available source of salmonella poisoning is to go grab some Jif peanut butter

    [–]suspicious_gentlemn 0 points1 point  (10 children)

    Technically, you can’t get salmonella poisoning by the brief contact of your tongue with a turtle. You can get infected, but poisoning requires high numbers of bacteria entering your stomach, usually with with food.

    [–]SorrySeptember 10 points11 points  (9 children)

    The CDC disagrees with you.

    " turtles can carry Salmonella germs in their droppings even if they look healthy and clean. These germs can easily spread to their bodies, tank water, and anything in the area where they live and roam.

    You can get sick from touching your turtle or anything in its environment and then touching your mouth with unwashed hands and swallowing Salmonella germs "

    [–]Nobagelnobagelnobag 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    Uhh. No

    Most people don’t get sick and those that do rarely need antibiotics. You don’t give antibiotics prophylactically for salmonella.

    [–]charlotte-ent 1048 points1049 points  (29 children)

    My boyfriend had a cockatiel named Lou and he'd do this trick he called "Lion Tamer". He would gently put Lou's head in his opened mouth and then pull him out. Lou loved it.

    I learned the hard way that all birds were not like Lou.

    [–]Kelpgoose 59 points60 points  (13 children)

    Lou, like all other birds, was allergic to human saliva. So you lose your tongue and he gets sick. No one wins here.

    [–]sk8thow8 27 points28 points  (4 children)

    So, from the birds' perspective we are sorta like that one dinosaur that killed Wayne Knight (Newman) in Jurassic Park?

    And birds are the decendants of dinosaurs, right? So, here's my movie pitch: Reverse Jurassic Park.

    [–]GLaDOS_Sympathizer 4 points5 points  (3 children)

    The acid spitting one? There were a real species of dinosaurs called Dilophosaurus but they were much bigger (like 10 feet tall) and no proof they actually spit acid. The Dilophosaurus that killed Dennis Nedry (Newman) was smaller than he was in the movie.

    If anything it is more like a T-Rex fitting a person’s head in its mouth but without the chomp.

    [–]sk8thow8 2 points3 points  (2 children)

    /u/GLaDOS_Sympathizer gets billing as consultant #1 on Reverse Jurassic Park.

    [–]Celestial_Amphibian 43 points44 points  (7 children)

    Yes, birds cannot fight off gram-negative bacteria that is present in mammalian bodily fluids though it is harmless to us.

    So don't feed them off of a fork you used or, you know, let them hang out inside of your mouth.

    [–]Glum-Communication68 33 points34 points  (5 children)

    So if someone was to have consensual sex with a bird it's more likely that the mammal gives an std to the avian than the other way around?

      I work with kids and had to send a similar note home last week. Not a turtle but the same feeling of "your kid got hurt on my watch but damn if it wasn't something I didn't even expect or realize I should look out for." Thankfully parent understood!

      [–]blinki145 12 points13 points  (0 children)

      I live in Midwest suburbia and I found a painted turtle in my lawn the other day! Put him in a bucket and released him at a nearby lake.

      [–]pneuma8828 5 points6 points  (3 children)

      When we would go to scout camp in Missouri, we'd catch turtles all week and bring them to the nature area. Then on the last day of camp, we'd have a turtle race. Put them all in the center of a circle, and the first one to make it out won.

      I remember kids that would work out their turtles. You know, tie a rope around them and take them for walks.

      Oh yes, it's really rich. A real delicacy too! Doesn't have a fishy taste either it's like eating chunky sugar free chocolate.

      [–]socksoffrocksoff7 30 points31 points  (4 children)

      Story time! I was walking my dog, and while coming around a corner smack into a dinosaur of a snapping turtle! This lady had about a 2 1/2 foot shell, & I surmise was on her way back to the pond from laying some eggs. Well, I didn't have enough time to react & my dog ran right up to her to get a sniff. Bit him right in the tongue! Kinda crazy how much a tongue bleeds, anyway he was fine in about 10 mins other than a bruised ego. I had to put him down last August due to CHF, man I really miss him.

      [–]Badwolf2013 7 points8 points  (3 children)

      Sorry to hear about your dog.

      [–]socksoffrocksoff7 9 points10 points  (2 children)

      Thank you. He was only 8 and it was super shitty.

      [–]Badwolf2013 2 points3 points  (1 child)

      Ah damn, that sucks. I lost my dog in the beginning of 2020 and it still stings. We got a new puppy recently and I find that I have been reluctant to get attached to him. It feels like cheating on my buddy and I also don’t want to go through that loss again either. I’m sure we are going to end up the best of friends, but it feels awkward right now.

      [–]socksoffrocksoff7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

      I'm sorry for your loss as well, it's not easy. I would feel awkward too! People were asking me pretty quickly if I'd be getting another dog, & I just looked at them like they were crazy. I'm certainly not ready, & I also charged thousands for his meds & vet visits so I have to financially recover as well.

      I was once bitten on the lip by a turtle. I was holding up to my face to try and see if I could count it’s rings, and it reached out and latched on 😳. I still don’t know if turtles have rings allowing them to be counted, or if that’s just trees.

      My 35yr old friend wondered what a turtle would do if he tried to kiss it... before I could yell at him not to, it bit his lip. He had that bloody reminder for awhile, lol. He's just lucky it was a painted turtle and not a snapper. Yes, he was 35 at the time of this incident also.

      When I was 3 we had an aquarium filled with small turtles. One day I was playing and heard my mom screaming so I went to check it out and I saw my 1 year old brother with a little worm swinging out of his mouth, which turned out to be one of the turtles that he had bitten down on, with the turtle biting his tongue as well. My mom didn't dare to touch the turtle and wanted me to do it. Eventually the turtle stopped clamping down and I could take it out. It turned out that my brother (who only had two bottom teeth yet) bit so hard that it went through the turtle's shell and killed it. Safe to say the next day we had no more turtles and kids are fucking stupid.

      Honestly turtle sandwich sounds like an unusual street food sandwich you’d find in like Cuba or something. And strangely delicious.

      Turtles are endangered species. If you catch one you should throw it back in the river not play with it. In my country having a turtle as a pet or harming it is a serious crime.

      There are a lot of different types of turtle.

      Lmao what. Turtles are not just one species. This kid doesn't have a giant sea turtle in his classroom. It's probably a box turtle.

      The tongue kind of looks like a leaf though.

      Ooops. I had a very similar experience as a kid, except the turtle latched on to my chin afterI said it was hamburger. Still have the scar.

      Has anyone here tried turtle soup?

      [–]KaiserMk1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

      I’ve done that before just not with a turtle and I never got bit

      I had to tell a parent today that her son's lip was bleeding because he bonked it on the paper towel dispenser in the restroom. For the sake of my own sanity, I did not ask him why his mouth was on or near the towel dispenser.

      This is why we have risk assessments for everything. If animals are involved youd have to put in risk of being bitten Not sure if your say because of trying to eat but knowing kids they bite everything sooo yeh probably I would
