lamo, yeah that'll slow em down!!
it'd be a good comic...an army of big, red, spider crab things marching on, only for the lead crab to turn around and shout "everyone turn back, he's got his covers overhis head!!"

I was walking to the front door from the car the other night no shoes on, when I kicked somthing, well I sort of just got the top of my foot under it,i really dont understand how it happened but I ended up having this thing just chillin onmy foot for another step till I freaked out and did the bindi dance kicking the thing off and squeeled like a little girl  I get inside and throw the outside light on and what do I see..a fukken huge Huntsman Spider!!!  It was seriously as big as my hand so I continued to do the bindi dance and shake like a cold baby!! As for the covers thing it is a scientific fact that no monsters of any description can attack you when you have the covers drawn over your ehad! Just ask any little kid

"Although they are genuine images of some rather strange deep-sea creatures, these photographs have nothing to do with the Indian Ocean tsunami. They date from mid-2003 and were taken as part of the NORFANZ voyage, a joint Australian-New Zealand research expedition conducted in May-June 2003 to explore deep sea habitats and biodiversity in the Tasman Sea. These photographs can be viewed on Australia's National Oceans Office web site."

all these from DEEP SEA is bullshit. if ur in deepsea, the water current will pass u in about a second or two. no way those fishes found were from DEEP sea.
i know these coz there were a bunch of ppl scuba diving out in kerabi beach (thailand). after they were done they got back on the boat and head for shore. when they arrived the shore, they go like WTF happen!!??!

YFirst indication is that they are quite good pics, taken next to color comparison cards. Reasonably scientific and not something you'd think to do in the aftermath of said wave.

Hi,
Whatever and wherever... they'll all ugly fuckers and that's why I'm inland - to keep away from nasty sea-creatures.
If I was in the water and saw any of those things - especially the crab with the spikes or that thing with glass teeth, it'd be brown trouser time for me!

No no no no no...!!!
all you people seem to be in shock of what you saw...
if u follow me easy instuction you too can also catch deepsea fish without even getting off your boat.
Here's how to catch deepsea creatures from your very own rod.
1. Get a boat (should be obvious)
2. Sail where the sea gets deep (when u dive and u can't touch the bottom is a good sign... like a deep end indoor swimming pool)
3. Use premium fish bait.
4. Tie a 4A-C block (made of cast iron and can be found free of charge by that irish dude in the engine section) to ur rod and sticky tape the bait to the block... use cable ties if the bait becomes loose.
5. When the rod jerks... hook up the rod to the crank pulley of another 4A-C (working) engine (don't get alternator wet)
5. Eat deepsea fish, serve with fries, salas and white wine.
Arrrrgh maties!
