Title: Vio's Porcupines
Post by: Vio on April 29, 2013, 05:21:08 PM
Last night I had a shower, and we had some weird new bath gel. I decided to try it out.

Shortly after the shower I notice my back and arms feel really dry. I take no note of it.

I was up till around 3-4AM finishing my English coursework. After that I got into bed, but due to excessive consumption of energy drinks, I was unable to fall asleep. I simply lay there for around 3 or 4 hours straight.

At around 6AM, I noticed a weird prickly feeling on my back and arms. While sleep was already impossible, this made even lying down uncomfortable. Thinking it had something to do with the heat, I turned off the heater and opened the window slightly.

The prickling continued. The best way to describe it was as if a large amount of porcupines were rolling around on my skin. It must have been a reaction to that new bath gel. I had college in a few hours, and I needed to at least get some sleep in.

I changed tshirts, but that didn't help at all. I eventually picked up on the fact that the porcupines occurred whenever my skin touched fabric. I took my shirt off entirely and opened the window fully, but the porcupines returned as soon as I lay on my back or side. I tried laying on my front and using my arms to keep my chest from touching the bed, but the porcupines just moved their way down to my arms, which was equally as bad.

It was nearing 7am and I was running out of sleep time and options, and the siege of porcupines was not letting up. Then I recalled how the WG t-shirt is 100% Australian cotton and most buyers claim it's the most comfortable shirt they own. I jumped out of bed and dug through my cupboard until I found the shirt, and put it on. I then got back into bed and lay down as normal.

In less than 5 minutes, the porcupines were gone.

Bravo, WG...

Probably all the SF vomit that's soaked into it.

It now has healing properties.

Was prepared for you to tell us how you have them as pets, because I would expect something out of the ordinary such as that from you.
