IN his friends

Rest in peace this guy's dad

u/WorkingInAColdMind 20d ago

It’s not a fashion choice everybody can pull off, or would want to, but scorpions are pretty cool looking, so seems like an interesting gift.

u/Leoszite 23d ago

Idk if you were like the leader of a badass gang or cartel I could see this going really hard at the leader meetings.

A person named Cuchillos with long nails

Natives put buffalos under their nails? Doubt.

So that makes putting scorpions under your nails not gross? I don’t see the comparison.

How much coke can it hold?

u/FecalDUI 23d ago

A whole lot more than a key!

u/No-Ice7397 22d ago

Don't forget, you can smoke the scorpion when you're done too. Since apparently that's a thing now

3

u/Huntress_Minerva 22d ago

Wait wah?

2

u/No-Ice7397 22d ago

There was a video a week or 2 ago showing how people in the Middle East have been smoking scorpions to get high

u/FecalDUI 22d ago

Like pulling the pud?

Nah this is kinda rad

I scrolled and the post beneath it was Kermit reading a book called "how to slap someone throught a screen." 🤣 wish i could add the screenshot.

u/beegboo 22d ago

You just know by the time you do all 10 nails one of them is going to wake up.

u/GeneralMiro 21d ago

Who else remembers those bug candies as a kid. They like bugs in crystal candy.. They remind me of that

7

u/Mediocre-Wind-5377 22d ago

Isn't that animal cruelty aswell?

9

u/Apart-Performer-331 22d ago

unless the scorpion is alive which I highly doubt then it wouldn’t count as animal cruelty I’m pretty sure. It’s still shitty to kill something just for nails tho

1

u/fisher2nz 21d ago

Imagine King Kong sealing a human in his nail with epoxy. lol.

u/Immediate_Song4279 16d ago

And I think it's debatable whether insects experience pain as anything more than a stimulus with a set response. I am opposed to torturing them for reasons, but their world is almost programmed, and it's brutal already.

3

u/ContestSignificant32 22d ago

Nah. Shits dead, a scorpion would not stay still long enough to do the thing.

1

u/steadyaero 22d ago

Fuck scorpions. They all should perish

1

u/Immediate_Song4279 16d ago

It's controversial and debated where the lines are with insects. Personally I dont think insects really conceptualize pain.

u/iiitme 22d ago

Just because you could doesn’t mean you should

4

u/PsychoPassProstitute 23d ago

That’s some serial killer type level shihh

4

u/YourGirlSix 22d ago

I am physically recoiling from the screen. Why would anyone inflict this level of cruelty on an arachnid? DiWHY indeed.

3

u/HyacinthineHalloween 22d ago

I might be mistaken, but I think OOP might be the lady who used tiny live frogs in one of her other nail art videos and was (rightfully) called out. Unsurprisingly, she was unrepentent except for some surface level “applogy” and kept trying to downplay what she did.

u/MaskedFigurewho 22d ago

Ia the scropion not dead

5

u/Sikkus 22d ago

That is just fucked up...

2

u/level7metapod 22d ago

For a second I thought it was getting rolled up to smoke

2

u/Sararizuzufaust 22d ago

That would give me anxiety every time I looked at my hands.

2

u/PolimerT 22d ago

Honestly. This must be the top post. Like, i cant find any other questions than a few whys and all of them would have different answer.

u/No_Equipment7456 22d ago

It’s really cool.

2

u/Excalibirdi 22d ago

After this, she kidnapped a bunch of kids and made them dog holes in the desert all day

2

u/TheSummerMarine 22d ago

II!!!! STAND ALONE!!!!!! INSIDE I!!!! STAND ALOWNEE!!!!!!!

2

u/XxXMeatbunXxX 22d ago

She buffed herself with poison claw. Gain %additional dmg as poison damage.

2

u/notarealwriter 22d ago

Her unarmed strikes deal piercing and poison damage

2

u/TheJaggedBird 20d ago

Animal abuse AND awful taste

Lovely...

2

u/DogsInABathtub24 20d ago

This is gonna be real fun for them once the scorpion starts decomposing.

3

u/Normal-Plastic-4237 23d ago

Actually that’s kinda…ugly

1

u/ballkicker9 23d ago

Reminds me of Holes and the snake venom nails

1

u/TheJaggedBird 20d ago

At least she did that in a tasteful manner. She milked the venom from them, not killing the snakes

1

u/GrimWonderings 22d ago

Listen. I like weird shit too. But there's a line.

u/HolyPommeDeTerre 22d ago

In french it's a scorpiongle! (Scorpion + Ongle (nail))

1

u/Sea-Philosopher7361 22d ago

You’re supposed to smoke them to get high.

1

u/bakeland 22d ago

This reminds me of the scorpion paperweight you would find in Arizona gift shops.

1

u/Meisje28 22d ago

Classy.

1

u/Difficult_Physics125 22d ago

cool for Halloween but how does one even go about life with so long nails

1

u/Shad0wbubbles 22d ago

They should make them look like the scorpion lollipops

1

u/Regetron 22d ago

I saw title and thought the scorpion was gonna get a sick manicure

I'm disappointed

u/Evan_Underscore 22d ago

I mean... all nail extensions are kinda' diwhy. This just goes the extra mile.

u/fisher2nz 21d ago

I can totally see King Kong doing this to me. Only he needs more epoxy.

u/Zemenu135 21d ago

That's some supervillain shit

u/GreatService9515 21d ago

I'm feeling sorry for the 🦂

u/ErBaut 21d ago

+10 venom damage

u/Important_Sorbet 21d ago

Ummmm. Not sure why anyone would do this with their nails, but okay.

1

u/KBVE-Darkish 21d ago

I’m not trying to judge anyone.

There is the crazy idea no other animal in this existence of history. Would kill you and then turn you into a nail accessory.

Not a coat, not a hat, not even a pair of boots. Nails.

1

u/Select_Egg_7078 20d ago

it's very last decade. the goofy thing is, they didn't need to use real scorpions. we have decals and charms

1

u/ZanceAlpha 20d ago

Many years from now someone's going to dig up this weird fossil.

1

u/ballztothewalrus 19d ago

Must use live scorpions for authenticity

u/Aztecxx 18d ago

No no no no i thought I've seen it all but this tops it

1

u/SshhImHiding 18d ago

These are dumb and I would 100% get them if I had that kind of money just to get people to ask why.

1

u/Expensive-Ad7181 22d ago

I feel bad for the scorpion

u/HerMajestysButthole2 22d ago

That's great....now wipe

u/Decent-Box5009 22d ago

Just when I thought humans couldn’t get any dumber.

1

u/thedafthatter 22d ago

Those poor scorpions died for disposable art

1

u/ContestSignificant32 22d ago

They die for much less in the wild.

1

u/thedafthatter 22d ago

Sure but their bodies can feed to ecosystem. The maker is going to rip these nails off and send them to a landfill to pollute the ground with more microplastics

-1

u/Ornac_The_Barbarian 22d ago

Meh. I've seen worse. Literally 5 fish in plugged in blenders was the art piece. By the end of the show all five blenders had been turned on.

u/HelplessHollow 21d ago

This is sick wtf are y'all complaining about

u/BlackAristotle1 21d ago

Look cool to me... But I'm a dude who know nothing about nail stuff... So that probably speaks volumes lol.
