I inadvertently committed a horrible act of cruelty tonight. I didn't realise when I picked up and separated two snails that were in danger of being squashed on our path - that they weren't just being friendly.
I wondered what the thin, whippy looking thing was, sticking out of one of the snail shells though I suddenly had a horrible thought
So, fraught with fear, I checked it out with good old Google using the keywords "snail+penis"
My horrible thought was unfortunately, entirely correct
The realisation that I had ripped apart such a conjoining has unmanned me. Or at least, it would have, if I'd been a man - and I trust you'll also excuse the unfortunate allusion. Alas that I placed the snails, no doubt twisting their antenna in helpless trauma, at least a foot apart. Will they ever find each other again? Will they ever produce little snails? Have I completely knackered the male snails' chances of ever reproducing again? I ask this because either snails have enormous penises, or I stretched it beyond endurance when I WRENCHED the lovers apart.......
Oh the horror of it.
With this in mind and as this is an entirely serious thread,
have you ever committed an entirely unintentional action with consequences that have left you RACKED with guilt?
Or not?
