Off Topic Satan ****s of hell

Some interesting posts on that

 

Orjust get a bottle of juice, drink most of it, leave a quarter full with the lid off

That catches them

 

Latchford isn't a city. There's a very nice park close by as well

 

I do know that bees and wasps are opposites- I also remember you're supposed to use the alphabet to remember.
"A-B" is supposed to be something and "V-W" (probably Vinegar for Wasps) was supposed to be the other thing.


There again- would mean nothing in America. Americans are very taxologically challenged. They think anything with yellow on it is a bee and anything without yellow on it is a wasp. As the son of a former beekeeper I can't tell you how much it irks me when they start calling wasps "bees"... (Still never been stung! )

They also bug me because they all seem to call frogs and other amphibians "reptiles"- a few know the difference but most yanks don't know the difference between amphibians and reptiles. It makes my skin crawl when I hear them referring to frogs as reptiles.

 

Some random searching on Amazon led me to this watch, which is the ugliest thing in the world and looks a bit like spiders eyes

Just £15,300 too (including delivery) #bargain

 

Who the **** would buy that?

 

The company's business strategy must be to hope that someone accidentally hits 1-click ordering then immediately dies before it can be cancelled.

TBF gets good reviews though

hahahaha, I love a good bogus Amazon review.

The first one is class

 

It's a Jacob and Co watch ... they're a vulgar, crass and historically irrelevant, modern jewellery (NB: Not a watchmaker) company for people with no taste

Oh yeah CRonaldo is one of their ambassadors

 

Check out this bad boy.

If you're looking for crass and heinously expensive, look no further than the Ulysse Nardin Erotica Hour Striker

A mere £83K

shocking pun

 

i have a fear of the fear of spiders. Arachnaphobiaphobia.

Spiders are mint. One in our house a few nights ago came in from the cold garage. as long as my forefinger (4", @). Even the dog, who normally snaffles them up as they try and scutlle across the carpet in front of the telly, gave it a wide berth.

I was turning the water mains off a few moths ago in the stopcock buried in the front path and i disturbed a ****ing giant. I was showing it to next door's four-year-old. i explained how they paralysed their prey venom that also slowly liquified their insides, and that the spider goes back later and sucks out the substance of their prey whilst they're still alive. Kid was fascinated and wanted us to catch a fly to see it happen. Bless.

My sister was bitten by a hibernating house spider that she unwittingly disturbed in the airing cupboard a few years back. her hand swelled up like one of those rubber gloves petrol pump attendants used to wear (remember petrol pump attendants, older bastards?).

Guy in work has a TURQUOISE tarantula that he brought in once. Gorgeous.

 

I agree. A lot of people don't even seem to know there's a difference between a turtle and a tortoise.

 

Surprisingly unintentional.

 

Turtle tastes better

Could that have been a tortoise's head I felt touching cloth this morning?

 

Spiders have been around far longer than us, were it not for their intervention we would be over run with disease spreading flies, think about that next time you want to squash one. oh, and man up anyway, ye pussies!

 

Kopites mate.....

 

I've never understood the fear of spiders. Especially in Britain where there arnt any poisonous spiders.
