“No. Not the whole time.”

Talk to the OTHER end…

Can’t tell which end is up!!!

This is akward.

Would you rather he talk out of his A$$?

Yeah, and you didn’t notice earlier that you were talking to a head (or tail) with no eyes?

The worm turns ….

I can see how the worm could be fooled – their head ends look pretty much like their tail ends (except for the eyes that real earthworms don’t have, or course).

These worms appear to be unusual: they both seem to have 2 clitellums (collar-like structures) – one near each end. Normally they only have one clitellum towards their front end – at little ways behind where their reproductive openings are (located on segments 13-15).

Time to bring the “listener” down to earth.

What was that joke someone posted a few days ago? How do you know which end of an earth worm is the head? Tickle it and see which end laughs.

The worm crawls in

and the worm crawls out,

the worm plays Angry Birds

He was just about to tell him about his bad breath.

Put your sweet lips a little closer to the phone.

No longer, “talk to the hand,” but, “talk to the sphincter.”

“Yes, I have, and you’ve been talking to my butt. I’m not impressed.”
