I am sooooo bored today... can you tell??

(Flim-Flam the Magnificent "You is talking loco and I like it!", Thu 28 Aug 2008, 16:21, archived)

There was a spider at my house a few days ago
He was almost too big for the diameter of the glass I got to put over him. Had I kept him he'd have been called Big Malcolm, Scourge of the Living Room.

Big Malcolm
Hehe thats a great name!!

The thing that worries me the most about them is when you see one in the corner of the room and think to yourself... I'll get that later... but when later comes its gone and is probably hiding in your pillowcase!! *shudders*
(Flim-Flam the Magnificent "You is talking loco and I like it!", Thu 28 Aug 2008, 16:27, archived)

Or it's gone outside to get some tasty fly treats.

I had a spider in the lounge, called Harry.
He lived in the corner for some time, and on the odd occasion I would feed him daddy long legs. Horrible to watch though..

when i was a kid there was one about 4 inches across, who lived under the bath
he lived there for many months until one day he ventured down the stars and i accidentally trod on his little spidery head.

Dude, that's fucking unfair.
Release him, he's done nothing to harm you.

Unless you are one of those peoples

Sorry but preachy stuff really narks me.
(Mr Eraserhead Why aren't you a lemon?, Thu 28 Aug 2008, 16:30, archived)

Shan't.
Being cruel to things that haven't done anything to you really narks me. I know which viewpoint I'd rather hold.
( Captain Wow currently being a cunt in Infamous, Thu 28 Aug 2008, 16:31, archived)

All I'm saying is either you should become a
full on vegetarian who grows all their own stuff, refuses to wear leather or use any products that derive from animals

OR

shut up.

Not that I endorse vegetarianism.
(Mr Eraserhead Why aren't you a lemon?, Thu 28 Aug 2008, 16:34, archived)

That's not what you said at all
you said 'unless you're one of those buddhists with a broom you're not allowed to comment on animal cruelty'.

Obviously I'm paraphrasing, but still. Killing an animal and using it for it's products (meat for food, leather for clothing etc) is something that's happened since the dawn of time and is something I have less of a problem with as at least the animal hasn't just died because of sport or because someone thinks it's funny. Leaving an animal in a glass to starve to death for no reason other than for your own amusement is very different, in my eyes.

HOWEVER you're entitled to your opinion, as I am to mine.
( Captain Wow currently being a cunt in Infamous, Thu 28 Aug 2008, 16:37, archived)

I see...
well argued actually.

But I still couldn't give a shit about anything as small as a spider.

It's because I'm a total shit you see.

Those aren't the only two choices.
They're not even the two extremes. I think you're talking nonsense because you don't like vegetarians.

OKAY, SO:

Itunes cannot connect to the net. It can't access Gracenotes and times out on the Itunes Store. It works fine on my PC, just not the other one on the network. The PC is online, and Itunes is allowed on Zonealarms (I've tried it with no firewall, and I still get nothing). I then tried WMP and that, similarily, cannot access the net or its trackname database. HERLP!?

He's not running a mac, so it's fairly safe to assume he's got an iPod, unless he's an idiot and using iTunes out of choice.

Hmmm...
...I've never really had any issues with moths... they tend to only want to dance in the light!

Wasps on the other hand can burn in the pits of hell!!
(Flim-Flam the Magnificent "You is talking loco and I like it!", Thu 28 Aug 2008, 16:33, archived)

There's nothing bad about wasps because they get in through the windows and then can't get out, so you just knock them a bit until they fly out the window.
Moths on the other hand want to be in your fucking house and are horrible wooly bastards.

That happens to me at my dad's house.
Then they fly to the window and get caught between the blinds and the window and make terrible wing noises. Then I can't sleep.

Spiders aren't really that intrusive though, they only freak people out because people are fucking pansies.
A spider would generally just walk across your desk then bugger off, a moth on the other hand would fucking fly in your face repeatedly even when you've tried twatting it away.

That is a Cardinal spider (Tegenaria gigantea), it's the biggest spider in Britain. Next month is their mating season, so people in the South West can expect them wandering around their houses.
