| 08:42 | Vex | yes sir |
| 08:43 | Vex | I dunno if I've told this story before |
| 08:45 | Vex | 8yo vex was underweight for cinching up a girth strap |
| 08:49 | Vex | i'm all talk; you strap it, i'm faster |
| 08:50 | Vex | she's italian. 4 years older |
| 08:54 | Vex | I was faster. can gallop. her horse. my mountain. |
| 08:55 | Vex | she found me in the grass pretending not to be hurt |
| 09:01 | Vex | I found a rock that'd never moved |
| 09:01 | Vex | put my shoulder in it |
| 09:06 | Vex | gentle soul. |
| 09:07 | Vex | she hadn't seen that I'd been hurt |
| 09:10 | Vex | later on in the pool. super impresiio. no crying. i was bruised af |
| 09:12 | Vex | a lovely young lady. i love horse gals |
| 09:13 | * | adlai didn't realise Australia had anywhere you could frolic without becoming a spider's new lifeline |
| 09:13 | Vex | theres chemicals for that |
| 09:13 | Vex | I really do appeciate the mention bro |
| 09:16 | Vex | no one really understands the struggle. |
| 09:17 | Vex | if I see a big bad huntsman, I put a light on outside and invite him out |
| 09:18 | Vex | they're never receptive. |
| 09:19 | Vex | you have to live with it, or smash it with a thong |
| 09:19 | adlai | old newspapers might be large enough to get some distance between your wrist and the fangs |
| 09:19 | * | adlai rarely kills upon first sight |
| 09:19 | Vex | dude/ you belong here\ |
| 09:20 | Vex | what kinda spiders do you get there? |
| 09:20 | Vex | huntsman in th house is a whole to do |
| 09:24 | Vex | gotta get a big jar and a bit of cardboard, start twitching & skipping |
| 09:25 | Vex | worst bit about it is, the spider starts freaking out too |
| 09:25 | Vex | you can just leave it, but fuck that |
| 09:25 | Vex | it's like fireworks inside |
| 09:26 | Vex | it's gotta be done |
| 09:28 | Vex | I was just trying to tell you how much I appreciate the love, now I'm talking shit. |
| 09:28 | Vex | you're a special friend adlai. love you bro |
| 09:33 | * | adlai has not performed entomological optimisation of the architecture |
| 09:34 | adlai | generally I leave windows drafty, preferably at least three, and if there is any particularly huge abandoned spiderweb I'll spend a few minutes tidying and not only that one corner |
| 09:34 | adlai | see also, mice in alf's kitchen |
| 09:35 | Vex | ok |
| 09:41 | Vex | not sure how you'd op[t for ety extract. hoseable concrete |
| 09:42 | Vex | kill it & spill it. all concrete |
| 09:46 | Vex | harmless house spider here gets you skipping when you first see it |
| 09:47 | Vex | dat's big |
| 09:48 | * | Vex whispers. pet. |
| 09:48 | adlai | do spiders have good hearing for the human vocal range? |
| 09:48 | Vex | the shotty; under the bed |
| 09:49 | Vex | prolly. they're sketchy af |
| 09:49 | adlai | they obviously hunt in primarily acoustic territory, although that does not mean they can distinguish between you whispering and wind around the rooftop gutters |
| 09:49 | Vex | snakes do. they will fuck right off if you stomp your feet |
| 09:50 | Vex | big funky spiders are awesome outside of your abode |
| 09:51 | Vex | catch & release. somewhere else |
| 09:58 | Vex | fuck those cunts.. forever problems like the nipah. diseased af |
| 10:05 | adlai | you don't consider it better to keep some terrarium and terrorise unwelcome guests? |
| 10:05 | Vex | no. ain't no body got time for that |
| 10:06 | Vex | you wanna milk a taipan, thats ur business |
| 10:12 | Vex | danger is super dooper |
| 10:14 | Vex | cobra facial is comparative aloe vera |
| 10:18 | Vex | nktek |
| 10:18 | Vex | gotta go |
