··schizophrenic pizza orderer and watch collectorAnd the have a Spur that injects a venom not even morphine can dull......
The good news: There’ve been no recorded human fatalities. But there’s also bad news: We know from a few case reports that the randy, angry male can drive his spurs into you so viciously that he’ll “require manual disengagement”—meaning you’ll have to yank his spurs out of your wounds. This would be rather difficult, as you would likely be distracted by pain that was “immediate, sustained, and devastating.” Not even morphine would work against it; the doctors would have to inject local anesthesia to make it stop. But that pain’s just the beginning: Soon you might become nauseated, suffer from cold sweats, and watch as the muscles wasted away in your hand. And if you’re like one unfortunate 57-year-old victim, your hand would stay weak and hypersensitive to pain for up to three months after your “spurring.”
