Quoth MoonCat View PostWHHHHYYYY did I eat before looking at those pics??? .
When I was a kid, I used to drag home every piece of consumer electronics I found abandoned at curbside. One episode cured me of that. I had found an old (trans-) portable record player, the type that is built into a wooden case. I talked my mother into going to pick it up with the car, being too heavy to shlepp home on the bus. I hoisted the machine into the trunk of the car, then opened the lid to see what was inside. I think you all can guess what was inside, besides electronics... and they were alive, too. Ickkkkk... I closed the lid, hoisted it hurriedly back onto the sidewalk and we got the Hél away from there.
And I so didn't need to have that housefly buzz past my ear while I was typing the above. Damn.

Quoth RetailWorkhorse View PostCockroaches do not need sewers in order to survive, they can thrive just about anywhere. I'm currently living, quite literally, in the middle of the state and I've seen them skittering around on my walks from my door to my car. Edgewood is green and pretty and HUMID compared to this place.
I don't care if you've seen lots of of houses that doesn't have roaches. I used to live in houses that never had roaches. Big deal. I'm saying they are here and I have to deal with them (Mom hates them. What 7th gen Floridian doesn't?).
In fact, I'm envious if you seriously have never seen a roach in Edgewood because, dear god, I found a DOOZY of a roach in EvilQueen's backyard.
I can't stop reading Edgewood as Edgeworth. Thanks, Phoenix Wright, you suck.
I've seen 100s of houses in the east mountains,including some really,really funky places over the last 15 years (I've worn a mask & gloves in some places),spiders,centipedes,rattlesnakes yes,but neither me nor my fellow Realtors have ever seen a cockroach,even in Carnuel."If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous he will not bite you.This is the principal difference between a man and a dog"

Quoth EricKei View PostUntil one day, someone brought in an XBOX (classic) that just seemed a little bit dusty on the outside...We hooked it up to test it, and a SWARM of tiny roaches promptly came out and spread throughout the store...At which point, the SC made a comment along the lines of, "Well yeah, I knew about the bugs, that's why it doesn't work! Why do you think I wanted to trade it in?!"I don't have an attitude problem. You have a perception problem.

Quoth Igorina View PostIn Florida, she's just lucky she didn't end up with Fire Ants in there. They, too love the electricity."I was only LOOKING, I didn't mean to enter my card's CVV and actually ORDER! REFUND ME RIGHT NOW!!"

Quoth BeenThereDoneThat View PostI've had fire ants in my house. More than once. It is NOT fun walking across carpet barefoot with them around. I hope we've been doing a better job keeping them out of our yard recently as we haven't had them come inside in several years, even this year with the severe drought which is just now easing up. Gahhh, I hate those things..."You are beginning to damage my calm."

Quoth Gizmo View PostI wouldn't fit.....
/sorry, had to do it!
This toy didn't require batteries; it has some weird mechanism inside its belly that, when the toy is shaken up and down, makes weird Gizmo-like sounds. But I do have a Gizmo furby too.
