Website Sells Pubic Lice

A British website called crabrevenge.com will help you prove that there is literally nothing you can't find online by selling you pubic lice. A disclaimer on the site says the creators "do not endorse giving people lice," and the lice are for "novelty purposes only." The company also boasts about a facility "where we do all of our parasite husbandry and carefully considered selective breeding." Three different packages are available: "Green package - One colony that can lay as many as 30 eggs for about $20. Blue package - Three colonies to share with your friends or freeze a batch or two for about $35. Red package - A vial of 'shampoo-resistant F-strain crabs' which can take up to two weeks to kill for about $52."

Everyone i know shaves so I don't see how effective this would be.

Gah. I do not get this at all.

I can dig a little grooming, but what is the point of mimicking prepubescent hair growth patterns?

Discussion of female grooming habits is one thing, but there are too many comments here from dudes about their own "manscaping". If Slashdot is going to have an "Informative" tag which mods posts up... then there should also be a "Too Much Informative" tag which mods posts down.

Stop lying nerds, you haven't probably even seen your own pubic hair in years.

Sure I have. Your mom never bothers to pick it out of her teeth.

"Bah...the gonzo porn generation. Nothing wrong with a nice bush. Why does every woman have to look like a girl guide. Now get off my lawn."

Well, much better than in the 70's. Ever seen much of that 70's pr0n??

Man...if you were gonna go 'spelunking' down there back in the day, you'd better have taken a machete, a couple of lanterns and a pack mule!! That bush was THICK.

I'm not the pope, but I'm going to have to put "intentionally giving people crabs" in the unethical column.

But fun and rewarding? Totally different column.

taking the fun out

[cyberworm]

I'll stick to the old way of getting crabs.
Hookers.

in Soviet Russia, do pubic lice sell websites?

They tried that, but found that the market just wasn't very profitable. Then they moved on to selling bulk emailing services, and found that it made a lot more money.

Agreed: It's a lousy story.

My favorite testimonial

How to get rid of crabs.

[Anonymous Coward]

Shave on one side. Douse the other side with lighter fluid. Light the fluid and stab the crabs with a tooth pick when they run to the other side.

Kids these days

[gyrogeerloose]

I'm tellin' ya, this country it going to hell in a handbasket. Buying crabs? Sheesh. In my day we got our crabs for free at a Grateful Dead show.

Now, get off my lawn.

So is the prohibition on divorce, pre-martial sex and birth control but I've known my share of Catholics that have done all of the above.

Holy shit! You mean, that wasn't a "to do" list?

No sex before serving in the military?

[denzacar]

So is the prohibition on divorce, pre-martial sex and birth control...

Well, that sure explains why the Crusades were all the rage back when Popes ruled the world...
