The point I'm making is: Why raise this issue in the first place? It's obvious that Elliot was talking about cute, huggable furfriends, not the decidedly nightmare fuel end of the animal kingdom. So why mention them? It's almost as if Clinton was trying to discomfort or denigrate Elliot for his statement that he likes all kinds of animals. That isn't a good thing.

Mr_Rose:
Please, parasitic worms are not the nightmare fuel end of the animal kingdom; parasitic wasps are. If you thought the Xenomorphs were bad I say at least they only kill you.

Tova:
Next time you're in Tokyo, head to the Tokyo Parasite Museum. It's small but fascinating. Also free. The best bit is the interactive model of an 8.8m tapeworm (the actual length of a tapeworm someone was once infected by). There's even a little gift shop in the back. You'll love it, bring a date.

P.S. I posted that link because it was literally the first result in a google search I made, but now I'm reading it and I found this quote:


--- Quote ---They also told us some random trivia. Like, for example, the most common "customers" they get are single women, followed by young couples on dates.

--- End quote ---

See! 8-)

P.P.S. Fun fact/confession: I've been there TWICE.

Farideh:
My apologies, my post wasn't too clear. I didn't see Clinton's interaction with Elliot as disparaging, but more as 'getting to know him better'.

Y:
That makes me wonder what Elliot saw, which likely isn't #1829 when Veronica recognized Kirk.
