I use to do a lot of single track mountain biking in Kansas City when I lived there. One day me and a buddy pulled 75 ticks off total, it was nasty.
Found a tick on my neck this morning
- Thread starter AAP
- Start date
75?!? AAAAAACCCKKKK!
When we had horses in the summer it was common as hell to find them on us. Those little deer ticks hadn't come into the picture, it was just the big gross ones that could swell up to be nearly the size of grape tomatoes (we would find them dug into the horse's manes and tails, really nasty).
Fucking things even stay on after showering. Waking up in the middle of the night because one was crawling around on your scalp or ear wasn't unusual.
I'm glad to hear you survived your trauma, AAP. How dare such a filthy parasite defile your person!
I went on a date about a year and a half ago with my boyfriend at the time. We went biking through the woods and stopped to lay down and a have a little picnic before we rode back.
Next day I feel something on me, think it's a scab from the woods, tear it off and wash it down the sink. Then I feel another one and I'm thinking I don't remember getting cut, and these were underneath my shirt. Long story short, I ended up finding 11 more all over my body! WTF!!!!! So I went to the doctor's office and fully had to strip down to my panties and he checked everywhere. EVERYWHEEEERE...and found 5 more, for a total of 16.
I think I showered like 6 times when I got home, then washed everything I owned, stuff I hadn't even touched in years. Coincidentally, my ex had not one tick on him.
Lame.

Cliff notes:
Got laid in the country. I was on bottom - got lots of ticks - dude got none.

ahahaha I have a similiar story. I was meeting Johnny's family for the first time and they were all having some sort of a bbq/4wheeling type thing. I rode with johnny all over some god forsaken property of theirs and when I get back back that evening I had four or five ticks on my leg. I FREAKED OUT...I walked around like my leg was broken while my sister basically set me on fire to get them off. LOL. By the time it was over the ticks were dead and my leg was burned up.
Lol we really didn't eff, but we were laying down together on a blanket. I dunno how I got 16 and he got none.
did you feel you overreacted at any point?
something doesn't add up
Oh totally. I couldn't help it. I had the gross shivery feeling a bug was on me and there was nothing I could do about it...
