sandrewn Posted January 4, 2023 Posted January 4, 2023 Alice Cooper - Welcome To My Nightmare (Official Audio) - YouTube Ear Spider Infestation Spiders living in someone's ear might sound like an urban legend, and many of the pictures you'll find of the supposed condition are doctored. However, there are recorded cases of spiders being found lodged in the ears of both humans and animals. Spiders don't typically seek out ears, noses, or mouths to crawl into. But when it does happen, the accounts are genuinely unnerving. People describe the scratching sounds they hear as the spider tries to move, and mention unexplained headaches and ear pain. Even though it's very unlikely to ever happen to you, it's awful to think about. 3

Even though it's very unlikely to ever happen to you, it's awful to think about. Although I've never heard of a spider crawling into a person's ear, I don't doubt it, because I read about a woman who went to the hospital because she had something moving around in her ear. In her case, it turned out to be a cockroach. 1 2
sandrewn Posted January 6, 2023 Posted January 6, 2023 Six-Eyed Sand Spider Burying Herself (Sicarius hahni) - YouTube For anyone who is wondering... Sicarius Hahnii belongs to a very ancient clade of spiders whose fossils date back millions of years ago. Its also known as the six-eyed crab spider and is known for being extremely toxic. However, since it prefers dry sandy caves far away from human contact, death by its bite is very rare. My brain has never been more conflicted between "that's cute" and "get away from me". It's like a green stop sign. 2

sandrewn Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 (edited) Two caterpillars are escaping a spider... They climb up a small branch and get to the edge, but realize they are now trapped. "Hold on tight!" says the first caterpillar, and he quickly chews through the branch. It snaps and they begin to fall, but he grabs two protruding twigs and steers the branch through the air with grace and finesse. "That's amazing!" says the second caterpillar. "How are you doing that?!" The first caterpillar scoffs. "Am I the *only one* in the whole damn forest who knows how to drive a stick?" What’s worse than a box of spiders? A box that was meant to be full of spiders. My son asked me, "What happens to the spiders that gets hoovered up?" "They Dyson." What do you call pants made for a German spider? Schpiderhosen What do you call an arachnid that constantly complains about its allergies? Itchy bitchy spider What do you call a spider with 20 eyes?

A priest was sent out to a rural village because the old priest has passed away. He meets the local people, they all get to know each other. His first mass goes well, but after the ceremony a slim man in poor clothing approaches the priest and says: \- Excuse me father, be kind, and please give me a half lemon. The priest was kind, and he gave him a half lemon. But when he asked the man why he needs it, the slim man looked shocked and ran away in sheer panic. The priest thought it was weird, and proceeded with his day. A week later after the mass, the same man asked the priest to be kind and give him a half lemon. The priest was kind and gave him a half lemon. \- Please, kind Sir, don't be afraid - said the priest - you can tell me why you need a half lemon. The man panicked again and ran away, but this time, the priest ran after him. They ran a mile when the priest couldn't catch up with him, so he decided to do some excercise for a week to build some cardio. To be sure he even bought running shoes. A week later the same happened. Slim man told the priesd to be kind and give him a half lemon. The priest thought to ask him first, but he didn't want to anger the man, he must have his reasons. He was kind, and gave him a half lemon. After asking the man ran away as before. But this time, the priest was prepared and he followed the man. After a few miles, the man reached a river, jumped in, and swam to the other side. The priest didn't want to get wet, so he gave up the chase. He bought a boat and hid it nearby. On the next week, the man approached the priest: \- Excuse me father, be kind, and please give me a half lemon. The priest was kind and he gave the half lemon. \- Here you go, but for the love of God, tell me, what do you need the half lemon for? The slim man ran away, the priest went after him. He followed the man, when the man jumped in the river, the priest jumped into his boat and rowed to the other side. They ran uphill to a mountain, where the man started climbing the cliff wall without gear like a spider. The priest stared, and tried to follow him by sight. He tried to find a passage but couldn't find one. He decided to head back home and bought some climbing gear. He took cliff climbing lessons, even practiced on the same cliff in the hope to see the man, but he never did. After the next mass the man approached him again: \- Excuse me father, be kind, and please give me a half lemon. The priest was kind and he gave the man a half lemon. He asked why he needs it, to which the man ran away. The priest ran after him, the man jumped in the river, the priest rowed to the other side. They ran some more, and the man started to climb the cliff. The priest took his climbing gear out of the bushes, and started to climb after the man. He was slower than him, but managed to reach the top. He started to look after the man, but he lost sight. He was about to give up when he noticed an old wooden door behind a boulder. The priest opened the door, and saw faint lights in the end of a tunnel. He followed the light and lo and behold, the slim man was sitting at a table with a candle on it. \- All right - said the priest - enough is enough! For the love of God and all that is Holy, be brave, and tell me why you need that half lemon every week! \- Okay, okay - said the slim man - I am cornered! You win! I tell you why I need the half lemon, but please, father! Be kind, and don't tell anyone! And the priest was kind, and he didn't tell anyone. Now just where was that ‘ban sandrewn’s account’ button. 2 1

I see them on the sidewalk at home that as I'm walking toward them, they runaway. Meanwhile, at one of local parks that I go to to walk, some of them will run towards me. Did you ever hear the dinner bell while you're at that park? It might explain their different reactions. 4

I had no frigging idea what Bill W was referring to with that 420 comment? So I typed out roach 420 . To say I was surprised, well I was, leave it at that.
