The pain in my back when I got up this morning...............again.
|
Spiders...creepy bastards!
|
It’s the wonderful fall season down-under and the redback spiders are coming out to inject deadly poison into everything that didn’t get eaten by a croc, swallowed by a great white or die of thirst during the summer drought. (great place :rolleyes: ) Sharni’s can of Raid is running low and she needs some help from IASOMEBODYKG that knows how to deal with spiders. IAANYBODYKG that has experience with killer spiders would make a lot of Sharni points for advice.

i managed to negotiate time to take rather a lot of old timber etc to the tip... and got there only to find a 40 minute queue to recycle it all - eek... so this is why i never do anything
|
The five hour power outage we had last night.
|
Fucking bubblebees!!!
|
Two frikkin ballerinas and a classical pianist on Miss America
|
a pissed off student who turned over every last piece of furniture in the classroom and then headed outside to flip the picnic table and the BBQ grill
|
^^omg that's scary!
|
Especially if he was in kindergarten!! :eek:
|
People who a close minded and read only what they want...not what it was you wrote!
|
When the alarm clock went off this morning
|
A creepy perv in the diner who asked if he could sit next to me & flirt this morning.
*shudder* |
The changing of an avatar today :eek:
|
Tigger Doo standing on my bloody toes!
|
reading about the garbage strike in Athens.
|
Walking out to my just washed car only to find two big bird droppings decorated with petals from our flowering crab tree. :(
I keep telling them that the brid feed we give them is free ... they don't have to leave the change. :) |
Maybe the birds are trying to buy your car if they made a deposit on it. :D
;) |

Heck, they don't even offer "chicken feed." :( |
Something the kids left in the toilet for me to find. <shudder>
|
Ordering a combo meal at the Sonic drive-in with a DIET COKE...the order taker immediately offers to add a slice of CHEESECAKE for dessert (I think, "oh sure, that will more than make up for the lack of sugar in my drink...next time I'll just order a diabetic coma 'to go' " )...the carhop brings my order, I give her a $5 & 2 pennies for a $4.92 tab, & the little airhead tries to give me 8 cents change because she doesn't have a cash register in front of her to tell her what the correct change should be...I drove off thinking again of the deporable state of education these days, & how as a cashier in the old days, I had to know how to calculate change (& even sales tax at times) IN MY HEAD...
|
Yeah, what ^^^^ said. It is scary. :(
|
Yes. Like when you hand them a $20, a singles and three pennies for a $5.78 sale. They try to give you back everything but the $20 until you tell them to just ring it up, then they turn and look at you like you tricked them or did black magic when they hand you a $5, a $10 and a quarter. Something here IS scary …………… and sad :rolleyes:
|
^^^those three making me think too hard made me cringe...
*runs away and hides* |
Getting a call from my son's best friend informing us that his father just passed away. :(
|
My son hitting a golf ball that ricocheted off the garage...missing a window by inches.
|
My new pup...and her new i'm gonna bite ya (and i do mean BITE) if ya go near the wire fence...and me newly discovering her having chewed Scooby's bed into little foam pieces
*Sigh* The biting is the biggest thing....if she dont cut it out she'll have to go |
Quote:
Be patient with her...buy her some chew toys and rawhides and let her take it out on those instead. She'll learn. :) |
Patient my ass....she has 1 month...these are not just nips...just launches herself at you and BITES
She's not a small dog...shes large and gonna get larger with teeth that go with it....i have kids and biting is not acceptable I think a lot of it has to do with her parents being gaurd dogs....she has picked up their 'let em in the yard but dont let em out' attitude The kid climb the fence to go next door (not meant to but they do *LOL*)...she will let them come over the fence into our yard....but she attacks and bites when they try to go over it to leave the yard |

OK...sounds serious. What's her breeding? |
Bull Mastiff x Rotweiller (could be Great Dane but they say Rottie *L*)
|
|
Slicing my finger on the box of Saran wrap. :eek:
|
The memories of how much that hurts since I've done it countless times myself ^^
|
|
A commercial suddenly coming on TV at about twice the volume of the show that was on. :mad:
|
Quote:
How is that permitted?!?? I have terrible eyesight & my ears make up for it. I think it's even more of an assault to the eardrums for people like me. I cannot stand it! I haven't had a TV in a while but remember LUNGING for the remote when I knew a show was heading to a commercial. Anything but those explosively loud commercials! |
Quote:
I think it back in the '80s I heard that the FCC supposedly "looked into" the issue of whether the commercials were really louder than the programs, & found "no evidence" of such...which is total BULLSHIT, as anyone with functioning eardrums can attest to...I've always thought, with my knowledge of electronic audio, that they probably just hooked up a VU meter & saw no difference, & declared it was just a myth...what has to be understood is that there are ways of compressing the dynamic range of an audio track, I know this is techie jargon that goes over the heads of many here, but the bottom line is that the ads are tweaked so they will sound louder...most of the shows, dramas especially, will not do that because they want you to hear the full range of sound...the end result is that you turn up the volume to hear someone whisper the dramatic lines that always seem to come just before the break, & then.... BAM!!!! |
The same 'ol same ol'
