      Something something spectre of communism. Also, that would be an interesting horror film, the bourgeoisie in the film getting hunted down by some monstrous spirit that looks like the angry soul of a dead communist or something like that.

    Repost of an experience I wrote about in the Horror Lemmygrad community:

    Google Maps can’t make sense of the backwood roads where I live, and always gives me weird instructions, such as making turns that don’t exist, showing “destinations” that are deep in the forest with no roads, and so on.

    The worst would have to be when I was dead exhausted and decided to cut some traffic by taking a shortcut through an abandoned quarry near my house, which has a mazelike lattice of access roads, so predictably I got lost. Which wouldn’t be as bad if Maps didn’t keep telling me to take U-Turns to go deeper into the quarry, even when I knew that it was a dead-end. Then it started saying that there were stop signs all around me and to be ready to slow down/stop (Remember I’m in the middle of an abandoned quarry, there are no traffic signs), but maps seemed dead set on getting me to stop my car. This whole time I’m shitting bricks and praying that I stumble across the entrance I originally came in through. When I did, the drive through the thick forest overgrowth and thin narrow roads were the longest 10 minutes of my life, it was terrifying, and Maps still wanted me to return to the quarry. When I finally managed to get back onto the highway I was never more happy in my life to be stuck in deadlock traffic. What an awful night.

    So, one of the biggest common myth in my country is that if you got bitten by a snake, you should try bringing the snake that bite you to the hospital as well, so the doctor can ID the snake and give you the proper antivenom.

    This led to that one time a guy brought a king cobra to my hospital’s ER.

      Well granted, that isn’t that much of a myth. It is very commonly recommended that if you are bitten by a small to medium sized animal that you should bring it in with you so the hospital lab can preform tests like rabies scans. Plus identifying the exact snake/spider/other venomous creature is important as most antivenoms are very specifically tailored to a certain animal. However it is a bit funny when people forget that the animal should be dead and just walk in with a very alive, and very ticked off viper, possum, raccoon, or dog.

      I like this because it makes the snake suffer consequences. You bit me making me go to the hospital. You’re coming with me and experiencing the inconvenience.

        You won’t like it if you have to deal with a bag with a pissed-off king cobra inside.

        We’re still not sure how he managed to shove it inside the bag…after it has bitten him (fortunately, it turn out the snake didn’t inject venom, or if it did, it did in insufficient quantity), no less.

          Lol the poor snake was innocent the whole time! I hope they apologized for the misunderstanding and let it go.

    Whenever I try to use stairs in a building where an elevator is the main mode of transportation, I inevitably land myself in The Backrooms
