Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

Powerful but leaves a mess for years to come?
then a few days later it turned into a massive, painful zit
are the very worst
make sure it's not changing
it just can't chaaanananaananaanange
I think.
and you know who is great at making major life decisions
16 year olds
I had a zit on the inside of my nose once. That hurt like hell.
most people that die from them die from shock because they think they're gonna die
in other words because of stupidity
then you'd probably die
maybe you'd just get
super brain powers
brain can shoot web
out of your nose
maybe you'd just get a painful brain for a while
edit:
Black widow venom is a neurotoxin.
That, or people have different reactions to the venom based on body chemistry (allergic reactions), previous exposure, or other medical conditions.
they give cancer
but the fangs are generally too small and the amount of venom too small for it to be lethal
it was on a tv programme it must be true
One of the first rules of toxicology is that substance + dose + reaction = response.
Some people are so sensitive to things like bee stings or spider bites that even minor stings/bites can be fatal. Other people get bitten by a King Cobra and survive.
Also, a Black Widow can clearly bite a human and inject venom. I believe you're thinking of the MythBusters episode with Daddy Longlegs spiders. They had fangs way to small to puncture human skin, and on top of it their venom was not that potent to humans.
IT WAS ON TV DAMNIT
TV NEVER LIES
you would think that once they get their fangs in they can inject as much as they got
eg if you have a syringe with a tiny but satisfactory needle that doesnt mean you cant inject as much as one with a slightly bigger needle
psheew
which is to say nothing
this is british television
british people are not good at teeth
i was under the impression that fangs are basically just sharp hollow teeth connected to where the venom is stored
they have fangs but no venom
