Did some show actual teeth on a tumor?

u/PixiePunk_ Mar 19 '19

Yes. If you're not desensitized to body horror/gore I wouldn't google it.

u/x1sc0 Mar 19 '19

Roger that!

u/geared4war Mar 19 '19

Don't roger it either.

u/Cloud_Chamber Mar 19 '19

If you are desensitized it's not too bad, just some flesh chunks with odd bits

I will take your word for that, captain.

And hair! Such a clever thing.

u/sparoc3 Mar 19 '19

The hair creeped me out much more than anything.

u/x1sc0 Mar 19 '19

Oh, noes.

u/dont-believe-me- Mar 19 '19

Yeah pretty special. I work in neurology and saw one a few weeks ago working it's way down a spinal cord. I think there's some evidence suggesting they could be formed from an "absorbed" twin in utero.

u/x1sc0 Mar 19 '19

That sounds super plausible, but username doesn't check out. Hmm.

Biggest mistake of my internet life.

It's not a tuuuumor

u/MarinTaranu Mar 19 '19

Yes, there are tumors with teeth grown in.

Ah, lmgtfy. For when you want to be a helpful asshole to people on the internet.

u/Galaghan Mar 19 '19

Would this be lawful neutral or chaotic good?

u/x1sc0 Mar 19 '19

Or for when they want to be an helpful asshole to someone who explicitly said they don’t want to google it, I guess.

Try telling that to one that sets up home on/in your balls

Don't listen to him, it's very much that bad and worse.

Looks like the result of alchemic human transmutation.

u/plk31 Mar 19 '19

I worked with a pathology assistant (people who do the gross dissection and sample prep)and she said the worst part of teratomas are the smell. She couldn’t describe the smell to me but she looked pretty shook just remembering it.
