    I was thinking of something stupid but I got distracted by something not stupid.  Now I can't remember stupid.

    So there's this fairly large spider that has been in the garage for quite some time. I noticed it didn't seem to move much, if at all. And if it was dead, I'd rather have it not be there. But I also have never heard of a spider dying of old age so I didn't want to try brushing it away because if it moved, that was going to be a situation. Well I finally did get out ye ol' duster and brushed the cobweb away with the spider, which apparently was dead. I know this story just changed your whole day.

    Thank you, I was in utter dismay, but now I am transformed, knowing that spiders can kack-it in the middle of their web. kiss

     

    Sidenote"  Hmmm..., interesting that Google doesn't know what "kack-it" means.  Perhaps it's a degenerative form of "kick it" as in "kicking the bucket", but "kack-it" is a term meaning "to die" that I've used my whole life but Google never asked me.   I could have used some more familiar phrases from a Monty Python sketch, but I liked "kack-it".

    This youngster wanted to be part of the kid's church but wasn't a kid.

    I met up with this Victoria.  Not Victoria 8.1 or 9, but the one who is at the mall I went to.  Well, she offered me 5 undies for about $20.  They were normally something like $12 or $13 dollars not on sale.

    Even at Wally's, undies are expensive!  Wait!  I think everything is getting expensive!

    Of course they do.

    I think all the people in line behind the squirrels were overreacting. They can't expect the squirrels to speed up until they get to the red squirrels drive fast sign.

    They had to remove the red squirrels drive fast sign and replace it with an accident prone area sign.

    I saw a video on YouTube about an attempt to stop wrecks.  I think they put up a sign or something like that.  It caused more wrecks as people were slowing down to read the signs.

    there is a channel on YouTube that I have been watching called unintended consequences or something like that.  Very short videos with tidbits of how ideas fail at what they were originally supposed to happen.

    Why can't I make up my mind on what is dinner? Seems like a simple question with a possible easy answer.  It just not always easy?

    Hope the AC works well today.  This is the temperature in Raleigh.

    sort of but basically.

    I thought I saw a fish fry in my platy tank.  I'm guessing it is a baby platy that came through the platy fry portal in one of the girl platies.

  • TSasha SmithTSasha Smith Posts: 27,243

    I got some fishie friends.  One of them is Thor the Platy.  I think he wants to help the girl platies make more platies.  Anyway I got a bunch of baby fish I am trying to figure out what to do with.

  • TSasha SmithTSasha Smith Posts: 27,243

    I had to get rid of the platies.

  • NylonGirlNylonGirl Posts: 2,203

    Why?

     Because I had to get rid of the tanks.  Not exactly sure why.

    I got an elefant from Claire's last week.  I just thought if they had a donkey, I would have an elefant and a donkey?

    If it sounds like it is pouring rain outside, does that mean it is okay not to go outside to water my basil tonight?

    ...got a surprise this morning when that happened here, accompanied by lightning and thunder (no mention of it in the forecast),

    01:32 is a stupid time to be on the computer.  13:32 (1:32 pm) is a better time to be on the computer.

    I accidentally joined a political group on facebook because I stopped reading the title of the group after cat.

    Which animal pictured bellow would you like as a pet?

    ...neither, the pet deposit where I live is almost as much as a full month's rent.

    ...also the first one would likely be able to slip under the door out into the hallway whiile the latter should be obvious.

    I thought of starting a bit coin thing and call it Stupid Bits or Stupid Coins.  Then I thought that the Stupid Bits are stupid so it might be too stupid.

    The old owners of this place when you first move in you pay a 1 time animal deposit of $500. This new company you pay $25 a month per animal.

    So instead of five small dogs, you just get one huge dog.
