The King is dead, long live the Queen

[davidology]

I consider myself to be fairly masculine — most of the time anyway. I have my moments.

I just had one.

Sitting peacefully in my chair trying to download both MS Office 2003 and Linux, I look over to find arthropod gigantus scaling the wall right next to me. I screamed shrieked at a frequency mostly only dogs can hear, my arms and legs flailing in the air as I flipped over the arm of my chair sideways.

I may grow a third eye from the Raid fumes I'm breathing at the moment.

Did you know spider is short for spawn of Satan?

I can't say it enough how your little misadventures lighten up my day. I'm like that with roaches, I get really, really bad if I see a roach....ewwwww, talk about spawn of Satan, they'll be around forever!

Fortunately, I've not seen one of those yet.

After that, I think I'd end up accidentally blowing up the apartment with too many bug bombs.

Thank you. That story coupled with the picture of Homer there just totally made me laugh for real for the first time all day.

And yes, I did know that.

Queen.

I'm sure it was a sight to see in person.

I'm glad no one did!

I think that happens with most people(except vorpal). He would would try to cuddle with it. Don't leave a single spider alive.

I KNOW! What's with him? hehe

Although I'd rather see them in his blog than in person.

[tigerroars.livejournal.com]

no one can explain why he likes them so much, but as long as they are on his blog and not my wall. I don't have to commit genocide.

I am now convinced that you and I are soul mates.

When I was in college I was hanging out in the loung of my dorm one day, sitting sideways on the sofa reading with my back against the arm and my legs pulled up close. I look over and see a spider crawling along the back of the sofa right towards me and I freaked. Purely by reflex my legs shot out and launched me up in the air over the arm of the sofa, across several feet of airspace, and I dropped smack into the lap of an upperclassman sitting in the club chair next to the sofa. I wish I had that on video!

*shudder*

I hate bugs...

You should see me when I encounter a bee or [insert any flying, stinging insect here]. I'm sure to outsiders it must appear as if I'm trying to make it rain.

I'm not proud of this, but a weird flying thing once had me and a couple friends hold up in my car for about 5 minutes before someone got it off my window. My friend Tony may have made fun of me, but I didn't see him get out and get it off! Or maybe I wouldn't let them out for fear the creature would fly into the car. eh.. it's not important.

i HATE spiders!

[davidology.livejournal.com]

I think they should be obliterated from the face of the planet!

Honestly, is DDT that bad? Collateral damage, I say.

LOL.

I like spiders. They capture/eat annoying insects.

All hail your majesty :-).

That's like replacing a rapist with a serial killer or replacing broccoli with brussel sprouts!

If they're not paying rent, they don't get to live here!

[davidology.livejournal.com]
