You mean Tremors was real?!
Thank God I live in Missouri. And that I'm about as well armed as Burt Gross and Reba McEntyre were in the movie...

Judging from some of the comments, especially Tash's, I'm not looking at this.

I was just about to send this in. I need to make sure my children don't do any google image searches for spitting worms.

“It’s between nine and 10 inches.”
She admits that’s a far cry from earlier claims of three-foot worms.
Overstating the length of the worm sounds like your ex, huh Tash?
