Buffalo Hunky Dories are fantastic. They are the king of crisps.

I have no one to blame but myself. I knew what it was gonna be and I came here anyway. *sips my soda and sits down in the empty movie theater.*

For the people close to me, since they know how to give and receive, rather than demand that I give without return. Gotta' love the hypocrites who demand people be unselfish for their benefit.

Every moment I spend in the company of a true friend. Such people are rare, and worth their weight in platinum.

One of my roommates who's always so kind to put the big, hairy spiders outside. He texted me tonight, at 1am that there was a big spider downstairs lmao. It's so adventurous, putting spiders outside together. (Though I don't touch them, I look from a distance and take some pictures)

I'm kind of a masochist and closet sadist. Would you mind posting pictures of said spiders? I wish to know terror better. But not too closely. I want to casually hook up with terror. Post spider pics please. :blush:

Ahahah, beautiful post. :D I was actually thinking about uploading some pics earlier on but I was lazy. But because you asked it so nicely...

This was the first spider I encountered. The night before I would go to Spain (and I really needed my sleep!). It was late at night and of course I still had to pee. So I open the toilet door and *BAM*. This fat fucker fell on the ground!! It started panicking and running around like a headless chicken.


That night I was feeling very empathic, since the spider was panicking so hard I started panicking too! So I thought I could outsmart the spider and my feelings by closing the toilet door and by running downstairs. (Since there's also a toilet downstairs.) I only forgot about the fact that yeah... Spiders can crawl through basically everything.

So, this thing was waiting for me, at the goddamn stairs when I wanted to go to my room again.


It was around 11:50pm. I didn't know what to do. I basically just stood there, wondering how the fuck I would be able to go to my room ever again with that monster there waiting for me.
That's when my roommate saved me for the first time. He came home exactly at 00:00. I asked him if he was scared of spiders, he wasn't, hooray! He even has a what he calls a 'magic spider bottle' to catch spiders with!

The second spider was less of a bitch. I saw it when I wanted to go downstairs around midnight again. It was on the wall this time. I had my doubts for a few minutes but then I just decided to text my roommate if he was still up and if he wanted to catch a spider for me. :')


These spiders are so weird tho. They are pretty much 'useless'. They can barely crawl on the wall. My roommate touched it, it fell on the closet and you could really hear the 'pop' when it fell. :') My roommate said it's because their blood pressure drops when they are scared so all they can do is fall on the ground. :'))



And the spider we found today;


Maybe they are not that big by American standards but gosh. I've learned to appreciate these ugly 'skeleton' spiders as I call them when I met these fuckers... The skinny ones do at least stay at their place! These big ones are just too dramatic, I can't handle that. :')

(Also, yes. It really took me this long to write a goddamn post. Gosh I am slow. :'))

I appreciate getting to know my younger half-brother. We look a lot alike except I'm older and a girl. We have really funny conversations on the phone. We were talking about how hard-core little old ladies are with their manipulation and forceful psychological tactics and that science will be able to help keep my skin from sagging in the future. It's really hilarious when I step back and remember it, but at the time it's a kinda droopy, serious conversation.

I ate some sushi together with my dad today. They put the leftovers in a box and I just saw that they put some extra ginger in it too. Can't wait until breakfast. :blush:

That in my country Helloween is two times a year. The one in fall was imported and our traditional one is in February.
Once a year is too rare for this kind of stuff.
