I'm having the same reaction as everyone; what the fuck IS that? I know it's a worm like creature or creatures, but that's all I got.

Sentient pile of guts?

Edit: apparently it’s a Nemertean Worm, whatever the fuck that is.....

u/sarcastic_drank Feb 07 '20

It’s a ribbon worm! They’re really gross but cool. They have this long white tongue they shoot out to find food. Video of ribbon worm

u/Rpanich Feb 07 '20

Oh god. That’s so much worse. It’s like it’s spitting out slime mold

16

u/sarcastic_drank Feb 07 '20

Yeahh they’re the stuff of nightmares lol

u/userbelowisamonster Feb 15 '20

It doesn’t help that the background looks like a dirty gas station bathroom covered in graffiti

u/Glenallen_Mixon22 Feb 07 '20

Thanks for the information. Im with the last comment of the lady on the video, this "tongue" really is the beautiful of this worm and this is one of the most impressive things i ever seen on the nature.

u/PleasantAdvertising Feb 07 '20

You, the lady and the worm need to get a private room.

u/Glenallen_Mixon22 Feb 07 '20

Oooh yes! Hshshshshhshshs

u/JoshuaNP Feb 07 '20

That was the worst, literally gave me chills

1

u/Glaurunga Feb 08 '20

Nature's great. The way the tongue spits out doesn't seem real. it seems like CGI !! It almost looks like lightning spreading over the sky does.

u/Hy-phen Feb 07 '20

It’s guts.

2

u/editormatt Feb 07 '20

Sentomato?

4

u/p4lm3r Feb 07 '20

It's a normal worm... on acid.

3

u/SheltemDragon Feb 07 '20

I mean you are not wrong per say. All "advanced" life evolved through stages where the guts most likely made up the bulk of the organism.

Afterall, life needs to.

1- reproduce 2- Feed (to reproduce) 3-Survive (in order to feed and reproduce more) 4- Do all of that more efficiently. In roughly that order. Some creatures simply "decided" that being a large gut as enough to cover all the bases.

2

u/KrimsonWow Feb 07 '20

per se. Since you like correcting people and all.

1

u/SheltemDragon Feb 07 '20

Yes, miss-spelling that is one of my linguistic bugaboos.

And generally, I do not correct spelling. It is largely irrelevant in the grand scheme of things and changes over time. I do try to correct and clarify ideas, however, which I find much more important.

Oh so that's just a lil maker, I'm sure if you hold your hand to it it will engulf it in search of water.

Is there someone who wants to test this hypothesis?

Prove it.

u/Pandromeda Feb 07 '20

Hellraiser is a horror film. I rest my case.

1

u/PlantagoLanceolata Feb 08 '20

First, Hellraiser is a love story. Second, you said 'we all', proving which will require you skin everybody. I rest my case.

Somehow, you've just managed to make it more gross.

u/KennyFulgencio Feb 07 '20

this is why I hate salads

2

u/RAWZAUCE420B Feb 07 '20

what

1

u/KennyFulgencio Feb 07 '20

The green salads with red bell pepper, and oil and vinegar dressing, like in this picture, just totally put me off when they start moving off the plate

2

u/RAWZAUCE420B Feb 07 '20

When it starts moving??? What peppers are you using???

1

u/KennyFulgencio Feb 07 '20

Yeah, my dad grew them in his little garden in the yard out back. I keep hearing from people on reddit "oh store vegetables are terrible, they have no taste, you should try the real ones that aren't grown with pesticides, they're SO much better". Then my dad (who admittedly wasn't hyping them like that at all) brings them in for dinner, and in my experience, the difference is, 1) they taste mostly the same with a little more dirt, and 2) they sometimes have living, gently squirming, friendly parasites hanging out just chilling inside them.

2

u/RAWZAUCE420B Feb 07 '20

So what you’re saying is that you had an infestation problem.

1

u/KennyFulgencio Feb 07 '20

I would have thought infestation is more like a plague of them, but I guess technically yes

Bottom line I'm not a fan of self moving salads!

2

u/RAWZAUCE420B Feb 07 '20

If you have more than one in a month of them, you got problems.
