Oh dear. I’m sorry, but this image of big ole hairy you dancing around on the side of the road with your pants around your knees just about made me piss myself laughing.
::faints::
You see, these are very large spiders.
My husband, of the Find A Wolf Spider On Your Pillow Day, well, I’d probably be a widow if it had happened to him…
I was once getting out of my car on the way into the supermarket when I noticed a praying mantis sitting on my shoe. He was just sitting on my laces staring at me, with this look that said “Give me a ride Mister”. So I figured let’s leave the little guy there and see how long he can hang on. He actually stayed there for the whole shopping trip, and I pleased him gently in some weeds on the edge of the parking lot when I left.
I think praying mantises are really cool.
Obviously. Eeew.
Yesterday was Allow The Venomous Spider To Go About Its Business So It Doesn’t Bite Me day.
This kills me.
When I was in India at the beginning of July, every day became let the cute little gecko like lizard watch me as I work or shower day.
There was a little lizard that decided that my bathroom was its home as well as my bathroom. I gave up shooing it out, it liked my bathroom too much, but was always gone in the morning. Obviously an early riser. Then, one day, a lizard managed to get into the computer room. Scooted its way up the partition of my cubicle, and then sat on top of my computer and watched me work. It was a really sweet little thing. It was the day after the grasshopper tried to attack me, kamikazi style…
Yesterday was scream like a little girl whilst on the phone because there’s a huge spider crawling up the wall day.
But it was just a one-off. Would you believe that he wanted me to eat him afterwards?
Actually, that’s not too far from the truth. Check this out.
That’s the last time I pick up green hitchhikers, no matter how cool.
You better just do what the mantis tells you to do.
You know what’s really cool? Baby praying mantises! Little bugs with really big eyes. And they’re too small to eat birds and stuff, which is good.
Endemic, I think that praying mantis had big plans for you! He didn’t just want a ride, he wanted dinner! :eek:
“This is a shoe-jacking, mister.”
Bloody hell! Just when you think you’ve heard it all…
**INSECT PORN! **
Well, all I have to say is that today is - apparently - slowly stalk a spider across the deck, and when the moment is right, pounce on it and then eat it alive day.
At least, if you’re my dog it is. She also ate three ants. I’m not making this up, and I cannot figure out why my dog likes insects so much.
I noticed that too, and I wondered if it was even legal where he was at.
