MERICA!! Spoiler It better be nice this weekend because I want to put some miles on the motorcycle. Who wants to join me?
Wore this at work yesterday for the world cup game: Aaaand will probably be wearing the stupid thing again on Friday, because I get to work on the night of the 4th! Hooray! Also, totally unrelated. I was at Walmart yesterday getting groceries. The check out woman wanted to know if the cherries I was buying were any good. I had to get her to clarify--you mean are they in season? No, are they any good, I've never had them before. I told her yes, cherries are tasty, but you have to spit the pit out. What's a pit? So then I got to describe to her what a pit was. Welcome to Walmart, y'all! Enjoy your stay. Your brain has an 85% chance of atrophying by the time you make your way past the exit.
I don't expect many customers of that store to have much knowledge on fruits and vegetable unless they're a Roll-Up flavour.
My lady and I just moved into a new place, and it turns out we share the house with brown recluse spiders. I'm not terrified of them, but shaking one off my hand this morning has me waiting for it to melt off like I just opened the Ark of the Covenant. Any advice for getting them under control? The lady is freaked, worried they'll bite our cats and crawl into our bed...I'm of the opinion that if I get a bunch of glue traps and we get situated, they'll leave us alone. They are recluses after all.
Yea, I'd say you should be afraid of them. Unless the thought if this happening doesn't bother you. My advice, nuke them, bring in an exterminator for a few treatments. Do not mess around with them, I've heard the recovery from the bite is agonizing. Spoiler
Me, at Wal-Mart at 8 p.m. because of all the dumb: I love/hate/fear/adore this country, but DAMN if I'm not ready to leave SC behind for a while. Fishing on the lake on the 4th with my pops sounds like a great way to do this holiday right.
I definitely need a break badly. Planned my trip home in August and the very next day, we are off the Sanibel on the southern gulf coast of Florida. And then its 5 days of this. Best part of traveling out to these places out of season is the crowds aren't there and the water temperature is incredible.
South Beach in August might not have been the best timing weather-wise for Minnesotans, but at least the beaches weren't busy. My girlfriend suggested we go fishing and do a picnic followed by visiting some breweries on Friday. Damn I love her and her plans. Anyone ever tried French pressing tasty things with beer? Like rasberries or cherries with a witbier or hefeweizen? I'm taking a liking to berry lambics but would like some similar yet stronger/cheaper alternatives.
Fuck that. Rip the wings off of a 100 flies, and soak them in lavender-infused water for a week. Then spritz the result around the house twice a day for 3 days, and you'll be fine. Repeat every quarter moon, or as required. Trust me, I'm an internet expert.
Are you fucking insane? Brown Recluses? Uh, I'd be on the phone with the Landlord about getting that shit under control, like yesterday, or find you a new place pronto. I'm all for being a tough guy (internet and otherwise) but those little cunts are not to be fucked with. If the landlord gives you an issue, start throwing the words 'uninhabitable' around. Or 'wrongful death suit.' Holy fucking shit. They rarely bite, but when they do, necrosis symptoms, illness, nausea, diarrhea, abscesses, systemic poising and other fun family games can result. People usually get bit because they put clothes or use towels on that the spider is in. Dude. Call Terminex, or Orkin, or Japanese Nuclear Plant Supervisors.
