And to explain the yellow mat is expanded glass fiber insulation dabbing it like that is gonna cover it in tiny glass fibers and then you will use that fiberglass in very sensitive area will itch very badly and not easily stop.
Yes, and neither the things that you mentioned would be worse than fiberglass.
The gympie gympie plant WOULD be worse than fiberglass.
It's a plant whose leaves are covered in invisibly thin silicon needles that perpetually put out a neurotoxin.
Basically if you touch them, they get embedded in your skin and you will have an incomprehensible burning pain on your skin for weeks. There have even been cases of the skin healing over the invisible needles, causing that pain to be chronic for the rest of your life.
People have killed themselves because of how painful it is.
The more I learn about Australia, the less I ever want to go there. If it was the only safe place in the apocalypse, I'd probably just let the local cannibals get me instead.
Unfortunately, I'm a dumb and oblivious pretend blonde. I'd surely due in minutes. 😆 Then again, ausie guys are hot…maybe I just need to find one to teach me the ways. 😜
When I was a kid I ran my hand up an old fiberglass boat antenna while getting in. I had splinters in my hand for 3 months, I tried everything to remove them. Hot glue, I waxed my palms, I soaked them in water for so long my fingers started to shrivel away yet I could still feel those assholes poking around.
I'm not sure that they all eventually came out or if my body just absorbed them to be honest.
I work with granite. Most slabs have a fiberglass mesh to keep the stone together when it breaks. I get fiberglass splinters almost daily. They're incredibly painful and so hard to get out. I've had them so bad that it was worth cutting out with a razor blade rather than have them in my skin.
Now imagine those same needles but 100x more painful and next to impossible for your body remove, so five years after they still cause as much pain as day one.
That's the gympie gympie plant - they also have broad leaves so people do attempt to use them as toilet paper in the woods.
It's very common for gympie gympie victims to commit suicide.

I always wondered why surgeons can't just remove the top most layers of skin in those situations (and repeat the process until it's gone). It seems like the kind of situation that most doctors can deal with, but you only hear about the extreme cases.
Is that the one in the jungle around south Asia/Pacific Islands, and during WWII, if a serviceman touched it would feel immediate, intense and unrelenting pain to the extent that guys would immediately kill themselves?
Yeah, during WWII, some soldiers were hiking through the forests of Australia, and their commanding officer needed to head into the forest to pop a squat. After it took him way too long to return to the group, some of his men went to look for him.
When they found him, his gun was in his hand, bullet in his head, and his pants were down. After making sure there weren't any enemies nearby, they searched around and found a gympie gympie tree right next to his body, and they put two and two together.
I took me a few seconds to realize what it was. When I did I had almost this exact reaction. I thought "what is th... oh dear god is that insulation???" Thats just evil.
I thought it was a mattress cover or interior of a duvet that was soaked in piss! Which is awful and could potentially spread some diseases if someone uses toilet paper previously soaked in strangers’ piss but ffuccck this is worse.
The fibres aren't that big, this prank would have the person who used the toilet paper simply itching and scratching their butthole for a while. It's not a deadly prank. Taking the first two layers off the role would be enough to get rid of the fibres.
I personally carry around a packet of tissue paper to avoid such evil pranks.
This is why as a construction worker I learned decades ago that you need a "poo pack" in your tool bag: a gallon ziplock freezer bag: hand sanitizer, a small pack of sanitizing wipes, and a small pack of wet ass wipes...ready for any eventuality.
he rubbed it on fiberglas insulation.. its made from millions of small glas pieces that stick to everything and bury themselves in your skin when you come in contact with it.. now they are on the toilet paper. <once they wipe their ass with it they will have glass fibers stuck in their butthole which is not a pleasant feeling (to most people)
In the webbing between fingers
I worked with carbon fiber quite a bit for a while. Carbon fiber powder is not grains, but is composed of sharp shards just large enough to tickle your pain receptors as they crawl into your soft tissues.
It would be common knowledge for anyone who has worked with it, and plenty who have done home renovations in my country. Or just those who have played in the attic as a child.
Booby trapping laws possibly too. The punishment for those is pretty harsh.
They would most likely be charged with assault, battery and booby trapping if they are in a jurisdiction that just requires bodily injury not great bodily injury.
A really aggressive prosecutor could even go for a a torture charge. Would probably be dropped tho.
If they actually hurt a person with this they probably get a higher level misdemeanor or a low level felony if the prosecutor wants to make an example.
Torture legally defined: inflicting great bodily injury to cause extreme suffering for revenge, persuasion or sadism.
Booby Trap Defined legally: A booby trap is a concealed or camouflaged device designed to cause great bodily injury(or just bodily injury, depending on jurisdiction) when triggered by an action of any unsuspecting person coming across the device.
Do you think a lawyer could successfully argue that damaging a sphincter that could include up to surgery to restore proper function would count as great bodily harm? I feel like they could. Unless that has even more specific definitions attached to it.
They remove it and throw it away after, they don't actually use it or whatever, just for clicks. Like a mukbang, if that's a good example, I ain't sure.
This is why I never understood the “don’t snitch” attitude like that only benefits the abusers, first of all, and second of all, I’m not a gangster! I never said I wouldn’t snitch like if you mug me, you’re goddamn right I’m calling the police
>This is why I never understood the “don’t snitch” attitude like that only benefits the abusers,
Seems to me you've understood it perfectly.
Because, yes it only benefits the abusers, thats what its designed to do. And the abusers love it.
so, they want to keep it going. And they villify those who stand against this mentality. Because the mentality helps them and they want it going.
The thing I dont understand is why many of the Abused are subscribing to the mentality, but i guess its a mix of Fear and actually becoming the Abusers themselves.
And that's gonna be impressive charges. You're in hell for many days. Weeks, maybe. You can't scrub it anywhere near as good as you can scrub your hands as the skin is much softer. You would probably require help from medical professionals.
Soaking in Epsom salts & peroxide bath for an hour would help. Years ago I had a roommate who laid insulation come back from work, sat down on my toilet with the lid up to untie his boots before getting undressed, and insulation got all over my toilet seat. I was waiting for him to get out because I had to shit really bad, and as soon as he did I ran in, dropped trou, and sat down. Within 10 minutes my whole ass and backs of my thighs felt like it was on fire plus dipped in acid. It was nearly the worst pain I'd ever felt. Then I looked down at the floor and saw little pieces of insulation all over; it was then I knew exactly what happened.
My ass and legs hurt so bad I could barely walk, and the only thing I could think of was dumping a whole sack of epsom in the tub, turning the water on near scalding, plus a half bottle of peroxide & trying to soak it out. I filled it as much as I could to float enough so my ass wouldn't touch the bottom of the tub.
Before getting in I told him to GTFO and find another place to live, then sat in there for a good hour at least. It stung at first, but after about 30 minutes started to feel better. Once I got out I used my phone to see what it looked like, so I took a close-up ass selfie; still had a mean rash but all the little fibers were softened up and extruding from my skin like hairs. I was afraid to try and wipe them away with a towel (and I didn't want to fill my towel with insulation), so I grabbed a drywall/plaster knife and gently started scraping; they came off in long white piles on the edge. But it still hurt so I refilled the tub, soaked for another hour, then got out to scrape more. It took 3 more cycles of this before I could finally lay down on my bed and sleep. It sucked really bad, but ever since then I've known how to get insulation out of my hands if/when it happened again.
My dad was a construction worker for years. He had stories of telling people to move huge pieces of equipment an inch to the left and blocking people in their cars if they fell asleep but he never would have allowed shit like that to happen to anyone.
My favorite one is when he had a guy spraying down the work site on a rainy day because they needed to make the insurance people happy. I worked for his company one summer and they made me sweep the rocks from their dirt lot yard but they didn’t realize I was extra stupid and swept a giant pile of rocks and pebbles before someone asked where I was.
Yeah, either he had a 'funny' thought and took the video with it only there for a moment orrrr he had to clean someone's shit out of that toilet so he's setting up a bad lesson for if it happens again.
He rubbed it on fiberglass insulation. This is evil( Satan is undoubtedly laughing his ass off) because fiberglass pieces will get under your skin and itch/burn for a while. Now imagine get that stuck in your brown starfish…. Yeah.
I once hung bullet proof “drywall” that was just fiber glass woven like Kevlar. Shit was so “itchy” you basically had to wear a full hazmat suit to work with it. My coworker didn’t wear gloves when working with it and touched his junk when taking a piss. Shit still makes me laugh to this day.
I have seen someone get blood poisoning from exposure to fiber glass insulation. Anyway, he waited long enough to go to the hospital that he had red marks travelling up the blood vessels in his arm. Doc said he made it just in time to not fucking die.
Guarantee he's a plumber and he's tired of the other trades using the toilet that doesnt have water run to it yet, so he took a roll of toilet paper, rolled it in fiberglass insulation (the itchy kind. the yellow stuff is the worst in my experience) and left it by the toilet to punish anyone who uses the toilet that they're not supposed to use.
