View Full Version : I saved a spider the other night!
I woke up
saturday morning and saw a giant spider on my ceiling. I thought about killing it, but it was in a location I
couldnt get to so i hoped it would just wander off. I came home saturday night and saw that it moved and I debated
what to do with it. So i went through the trouble of spending 10 mins trying to catch and then going down stairs to
let it go free (Keep in mind its 3am and im very tired). Kinda funny cause I sorta got soft about killing it. A
few reasons about why I did it. 1) Not lately, but about 2-3 months ago I would have odd/bad dreams involving some
sort of spider or spiders that made me feel uncomfortable when waking up. 2) I beleive in karma and just because its
a lower form of life doesnt make its value anyless than mine.
I duno, i just felt like sharing whats been on my
mind...
See
what months of wearing NPA/w does to a guy!
Just kidding, I don\'t see the point of killing those things
either.

I won\'t let people kill spiders around my house. They can be put outside but never harmed. That\'s because
spiders eat all the other nasty little creatures that invade our homes.

Not to post an \"unwelcome\" and \"unpopular\" response, but my house is my domain. I don\'t go outside and
actively kill spiders/insects, but if it comes in my house, I\'ll kill it. Some of that is due to my slight OCD
tendencies from my heredity, but I must get rid of it...if one is in my house, that means hundreds more could be
lurking about. I can\'t take that chance.
After just talking about it...
Must cleanse myself...must
cleanse...I\'m so dirty...*Shivers*

I\'ve got many spiders in my home. They keep my home free of flies and other insects. No fly is
disturbing my sleep on sunday mornings.
Now I need a girl that shares this insight

I pardon them as well. I let them do their job ridding my
house of other creepy crawlies.

I find that rather admirable. Particularly since I used to be arachnephobic, myself.

Spiders are clean. Cockroaches are dirty, and must be killed.

I am
with Pancho on this one: I will kill any non-human life form that enters my domain (especially spiders) or at least
make sure it gets out as soon as possible. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Yeah, that was the scary part. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

You had already been taken over. And were trying to get me
to come along. How could I resist?! It get\'s kinda blurry after that. Though I do remember feeling you up.

Ok now I have a craving for a ham sandwich, perhaps with a little mustard mayo...

That really was the god of all ham sarnies.
Home cooked ham sliced onto fresh farmhouse loaf, with generous
amounts of fairly weak mustard mayonaise. <drool>
Now I understand how one sandwich could be so dangerous.

Yeah, if you added mayo, cheese, \"special sauce\", potato chips, and a beer, you could fatten the world and clog
the arteries of every human being in the world! Absolutely diabolical!!!

Well then, I have some shopping to do.
My mouth is still watering. Maybe someone could capture the essence of
ham sandwich and sell it as a food colonge.
When worn by a woman Essence of Ham Sandwich (EHS) would make all the
men in the room drool, and want to commit instantly because the man will assume she is a good cook. A few smears of
mayo around the mouth will amplify the effect.
In fact, we could use all manner of confectionary delights in
Essence(tm) form.
Around the festive season, Essence of Traditional Christmas cake would be particularly
effective.
Picture the following diologue:
Her: \"Hey handsome\"
Him: \"Err...hi\"
Her: \"Are you
having a good Christmas?\"
Him: \"Yes actually, I planning to...I\'m sorry, but is that a glace cherry on your
cheak?\"
Her: \"Maybe. Do you like glace cherries? Why don\'t we just...\"
Him: \"Hunny, you smell like a
fruit cake, I\'ll see you lat...\"
Her: \"Don\'t talk baby, just dance\"

What

A little bit of mustard mixed with mayonnaise.
Try it, you might find you like it.

Who knows, dijonnaise could be the
one thing to save the world from the ravages of the nefarious ham sandwich.
/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif OK, now I\'m kidding...or am I....
