What shits ya!

If it’s smaller than 50c, kill it with spray or a shoe, whichever is nearest, then flush the remains in a tissue. Don’t let the ****er lay eggs. Although I do like the blowtorch idea lol. Bigger than 50c is rare, and would require reinforcements. At work I catch and release though. I think the strategy varies depending on the distance to an external door lol.

Typically not huntsmen, most of the spiders here are garden spiders or the odd white tail, and lots of daddy long legs that I don’t bother with, they can stay wherever they are.

I think I’ve told my spider story before. Had people over and went out on the driveway to say goodbye. Stepped on a huntsman barefoot, squished his abdomen under my heel. The rest of him ran up my leg.

When I was a kid we discovered a huntsman nest in the house, that one got the vacuum cleaner treatment. I’m not sure how stage two of that situation went, I don’t think I’d be keen to remove the bag or leave the vacuum indoors afterwards.

When we are in the East/West year for subbies...driving your kid from Mount to Taylors Lakes, Hoppers Crossing, Melton, Werribee etc. wears a bit thin.

I assume it's play everyone once for you though?

Yeah but they can be two day games and if you cop a poor draw you can travel a lot.

Oh shit I just assumed it was like everyone else and one day games only

 

[ScrappyCoCo]

Oh sh*t I just assumed it was like everyone else and one day games only

It is this year and comp is the local clubs to avoid travel. Last year was terrible.

You guys know the 25km radius is no longer a thing, yeah?

Yes, it's more of a pain in the ass.

 

[ScrappyCoCo]

At least they stopped our 3rds and 4ths having to travel to ridiculous areas. They were losing too many players, that were not that good, as they preferred to be fairly local. Lots of kids play in those grades also. I get it for Premier cricket though.

Last night really shit me, timeline as follows:

• 8pm an electrical storm starts, not so bad except they terrify my youngest
• 9pm - blackout. Sigh, oh well, I'll wait it out for a while given the storm is pretty much crashing directly above us now and at least make sure the kids are asleep before I turn in
• 10:15pm - bored shitless and kids asleep I go to bed, thunder is moving into the distance by now
• 11:10pm - Power back on so out of bed I go to turn off TV, lights etc that were on when power went out, turn on the hot water so I don't forget before my morning shower
• 12:30am - woken to the sound of a mozzie buzzing somewhere near my head
• 1:30am - probably 60 slaps to my ear and I still haven't killed the ****ing mozzie. Why doesn't it go annoy someone else instead of just me?
• 1:45am - finally kill mozzie after it gets stuck buzzing pretty much in my ear
• 2:24am - damn mozzie had me too worked up to sleep, this is the last time I looked at the clock before drifting off
• 5am - woken by a torrential burst of rain on the colourbond roof that latest all of about 3 minutes, but enough to wake me
• 5:37am - last time I looked at the clock before finally getting back to sleep after getting angry about what a shit night it has been hence preventing me from falling asleep for the last 40 odd minutes
• 6am - alarm goes off. Oh good morning you shithouse ****ing world

I hope today is a stress free one at work as I'm likely to rip the throat out of anyone that causes me shit.

They went all ****ed up when they closed the factory in Victoria. Saladas have been bullshit since.

New Years Morning....neighbour starting his mower at 8.30. EPA noise restrictions allowed to at 9am on public holidays. Probably payback for my young adult kids keeping them up late on weekends at times.

2021 saw my first F#$% muttered out of my hungover mouth.

Mowing at 8:30 am New Years day. Definitely sounds like a revenge mow.

This might be an unpopular (perhaps irrational) opinion, but I nearly vomit any time I see a yank talking about AFL or trying to get in on Football culture.

On one hand; I get it. It's good to grow the game and the US is a big market, and really, the more the merrier. BUT, I can't shake that feeling I have. Does anyone else feel a similar way?

Threw my back out this morning. I've had back issues on and off since I was 15 or so but never thrown it through heavy lifting or playing sport.

Today it was bending down to get a roll of paper towel out of the cupboard.

FFS.

People that ride in the passenger seat of a car with their feet on the dash.

1. You look like a ****ing slob
2. If that car has a serious crash, you're never walking again
3. Have some damn respect for a car you clearly don't own

took a bird out for dinner & to the movies once, on the drive back to hers afterwards and she had her feet up on the dash the whole way. middle of winter so shoes wouldnt have been clean. I asked her to take them down and just got some comment back.
didnt bother asking her out again. I had a shit car at the time but it was just her attitude

Deadset I'd have stopped the car.

Moving 4.5 cubic square metres of wet soil all on your own, taking 6 hours and countless wheelbarrow trips. My lower back & left hamstring for some reason are tighter than spandex on an elephant. Slept well though.
