Resort fee increased, just because.
There’s always a non-zero chance.
Testicles stung hard.
What would be his remedy?
Hotel comped his room.
Also,
You’re one of my favorite accounts I’ve ever seen on here. Imagine how excited my little Wayne’s World-obsessed pea-brain was when I saw your haiku, that line popped in my head, I went to reply with my dumb, barely-relevant movie reference, and then I saw your name! (Too excited.)
Thank you kind stranger! This account is a silly little experiment of mine. I glad I could put a smile on your face.

That takes gambling to a whole other level.
I mean… nature is nature and sometimes nature invades indoor spaces. Why is he blaming the resort? Unless he’s claiming the scorpion was allowed in his room through some sort of gross negligence or… I guess, intentionally… what were they supposed to do to stop it from crawling through an open window, up a drain, or through a gap in the door?
Like for real, I pay for a pest service that comes to spray around my home regularly, and I still had lady bugs mysteriously invading my bathroom all winter. If I had a guest stay over and get bitten by a spider in the middle of the night, am I legally liable for that? Should I be patrolling the halls 24/7 with a flashlight and a can of raid and doing hourly bed checks for arachnids? Is that the bare minimum he expects?
Don’t get me wrong. Getting woken up by a painful venomous sting to the nut would be fucking awful, no doubt. New nightmare unlocked. Fully justified at being pissed. But why at the resort? Be pissed at the scorpion. Be pissed at mother nature, God, life, bad luck, whatever. But the resort had about as much of a hand in your circumstances as you did, which is to say next to none. It would be like suing the owner of a parking lot because your Beemer got bird shit on it. They’re wild animals dude, and they’re fucking everywhere, what do you want me to do?!
Man I just stayed 100ft off the strip last week for work and it was $23 per day and it was actually nice, like 2 queens, TV, etc… but when I connected to the Internet it was 1.5mb speeds unless I paid like $20 a day. That stung. But only until I realized I have unlimited data and I was easily able to connect that TV to my phone lol. House lost that one boys.
That stung.
:/
What’s the over/under on this sort of thing happening regularly?
I work in pest control. It happens so often that when it does happen it makes the news. That is to say this guy was probably asking for it.
Seriously. What the fuck stupidity do you have to engage in to be stung in the testicles.
“I was minding my own business” Sure! And people go to the emergency room for accidentally sitting directly on large elongated objects.
If you live in an area with scorpions, it’s really common. Source: lived in an area with scorpions, all family members have at least 2 stories about them. Ever lived in an area with snakes? You probably never checked your shoes? You’ll learn real quick to check your gotdamn shoes with scorpions, the smallest fuckers are the worst.
Stayed the night in a friend’s family lake cabin at Dale Hollow in Tennessee, once. We had to kill two scorpions in 24 hours. One crawled up the drain in the kitchen sink, the other had crawled up the drain in the shower.
I was the lucky one to find the shower one. I started to go to crush it with a piece of toilet paper in hand like I would a spider, but thought better of it. Instead, I used a shampoo bottle to crush it and I’m glad I did. In its death spasms, it’s stinger stabbed the shampoo bottle like 4 times. Glad that wasn’t my hand.
The one in the sink, came crawling up when my friend’s mom started running the water, and she crushed it with a glass.
Even though I was lived in the area for 3 years, like 15-20 minutes away, and my sister is even closer, like 5-10 minutes away, I hadn’t ever seen a live scorpion. Nor have I seen one since. But right around the lake, apparently, they’re fucking everywhere.

I know they’re wrinkly but I didn’t realise they have THAT much give
Most painfu was the winning smash on the thing
This guy got an STD and blamed it on a scorpion
Weird that the counties in Nevada with legal prostitution also happen to have the most scorpions
Geoblocked. Anyone got a proper link?
