Is it normal she thought a slug...

At 30 years old, is it normal my wife saw a slug and couldn't understand why this Snail had lost his shell?

    Maybe she was joking :P Even if she wasn't, while I think it's a bit unusual to be that old and not know that a slug is a different animal to a snail sometimes that sort of information goes over peoples' heads. I didn't know what lockjaw was until yesterday, and I remember when I used to think walnut furniture was made of actual nuts, not the wood from the walnut tree. Sometimes people just don't know stuff.

    Maybe someone told her that's what a slug was when she was a kid, and she kept on believing it. It's not that farfetched, really.

      I only recently realised The Academy Awards and The Oscars were THE SAME THING. How bad is that?

    Well, at least they are both mollusks. It's much worse imo when people think of slugs/snails/leeches etc. as insects.

    Cute, your wife sounds like a sweet person. I had braced myself for another post about a über stupid squeamish person and this was a happy surprise! Tell her to keep up the cuteness!

    I'd find it cute... if she was 6 years old.

    As it is, it makes me cringe.

        You are forgiven, child. Blessed be those who repent, for disthing is merciful.

    Odd but as a kid I thought the same way. That is until I was informed otherwise.
