Under the correct circumstances, I could see one of these things triggering a level 10 pants crapping event.

I can't wait until Marquez gets on his level and makes Jorge trip on his tampon string.

If the "correct circumstances" include sitting at my computer then I may just have reached level 10.

HOLY SHIT

I ride a GS scooter with my hair cut neat.

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

I saw one in  the entrance to an old mine in New Zealand.  Was a big bastard, but not quite as fat as the one in the carrot photo.  Creepy.  

Funny how people get so grossed out by bugs, but lobster and crab is considered such a delicacy.

If by "under the right circumstance" you mean anytime, anywhere, doing anything, then yes...level 10 it is.

Now that you mention it......

I'm still grossed out  [puke]
Comes a time
When the blind man takes your hand
Says don't you see
Gotta' make it somehow
On the dreams you still believe
