Let's try this again...
WOOOT that's better Deb.
i was starting to think that i was loosin my eye sight when i saw the first photo you uploaded, now i don't have to go to the Optometrist to get glasses..
Ok.. After a bit of searching.. It seems few people take photos of me, and I take even less.. so other than the criminal on the drivers licence.. it was this or I scanned my old photos when the hair had colour.. and I looked more like Dr Who than Tom Baker did (ok I looked younger ).. the spectaculars were not needed then either..
still prefer my old avatar.. looked like how I feel..
Here's one of my pet... :D
It's been wandering around the place for nearly a year now. haven't had the heart to kill him/her not sure on that..
Ugly sucker isn't she. You need to dress her up a bit fronty. Maybe a little dress or bonet or something.
I just took another look at your "pet".... Wow... God be with you if it ever bytes and you haven't defanged it. It looks similar to a bird spider / Tarantula, and the fans look fairly large for a "pet" on a keyboard. Then again I've been awake since yesterday and a wee bit stoned so that could be plastic for all I know. But if it's not watch your ass.
Well maybe it gets better looking a closing time, but for now..... :eek: How'd ya like to have that thang crawling around near your shorts???
cheers
If I had that thing crawling around on my keyboard, I'd toss some dynamite in the computer room and close the door and hope for the best. :killcompu
That's a waste of explosives. Generally when I'm in my room and the spider isn't cool looking or it's to hot outside to take him out there and set him free I just take some duster for my keyboard, turn the can upside down, and press the nozzle which releases something that freezes instantly. Then I take his freezing ass and flush it.
Hi f2b,
That looks just like the Tarantula I had in my teens...I was trying to decide between a Tarantula and a Boa or Python...and decided on a Rainbow Boa...but my brother decided to surprise me with a Tarantula at the sametime...so...I ended up with both.
But...boyyyyyyyyy...did that spider stink...everytime I opened up his cage to take him out...Whewwwwwww! :eek: and I cleaned his cage every week...don't know if it was him or the dead crickets but it wasn't long before I got rid of him.
Eg ;)
EG it was the crickets. I had them for my Butterfly fish and they stink horribly. Thank God I had Piranha in there to clean up lol.
quick picture
Hmmm ... too bad yer married.Quote:
Uh, too bad I'm married.
Yeah, and I'm old enough to be yer gra ... er ... father.
Geez, life is unfair.
;)
.:front2back: WTF is that thing :eek:
You let that wander around your house?
Is it a huntsman spider (not sure of the name summit like that).
hope you don't sleep with your mouth open.
It's been wandering around my Business, usually once the store is open it just goes into hiding.Quote:

Haven't had any complaints from Customers about it, It's more of a Mascot and some of the more regular customers call it Sammy the Spider.
Indeed it is, the photo was rather close up, so if looks a lot bigger then it really is.. :DQuote:

As as these type of spiders don't inflick a painful bite and if bitten only a slight rash will appear around the bite.
Other then that it's defiantly not deadly..
huh dunno about that but Huntsman spiders luv eating gonads... hope you have yours coveredQuote:

I think that she is quite beautiful...............but I have always liked them, since I was about 5 years old.
She, is a she (trust me I am a moderator :D ) all decent spiders are female, apart from the **** Sydney Black Funnelweb
I remember as a small boy having spiders as pets.............I managed to prove that you could invoke a Pavlovian reaction in them......................the "pink blob in the sky= freshly swatted fly" :D
Only the Sydney Black Funnelweb and the Brasilian Goliath are aggressive...............the rest are OK if you leave them alone ;)
Sounds ike something someone says when they have never had a Wolf spider jump on them, or someone who's never seen an Aussie brown. Most deadly spider ever.
Biggest we get is a house spider.
http://www.the-piedpiper.co.uk/th11f(1).htm
Biggest I've seen are not much smaller than your Huntsman (but then they get much bigger don't they).
I'm not a fan. Probably due to being brought up with a mother and sister who were terrified of them. I don't kill them though I like to put them out in the garden. The cats do like to stomp on them though.
There is a program just started on TV here 'I'm a Celebrity get me out of here'. It's shot in an Australian forest. Lots of spider action to torture the 'Z-list' celebs on it.
http://www.itv-celebrity.com/
In the videos section there is one with Paull Burrel in it (Princess Diana's former butler) eating kangaroo bollocks raw. Very funny.
Oh, even better, below that they've got him with his hand in a wall picking out stars for prizes. "What the butler saw". Honestly the funniest thing I've seen on TV ever. You need the sound on though, he blubs his way through it like a toddler.
I had a Wolf Spider as a pet a few years back, but when i moved house i had to get rid of it and a few Reptiles, as there was not enough space for us and them..Quote:

+ licenses to keep pets these days are just getting way to expensive..
Thank you rapier :D My dad is actually old enough to be my grandfather too. I was a late baby. ;)
I suppose I'll put mine in there.

I had to turn the sound down and look away, I neary puked, can't bear meat/fish as it is and seeing him do that, well all I can say is bugger thatQuote:

Paws am with you on this one - am not a squimish person. 9yrs playing rugby and seeing the likes of one guy seeping bone marrow onto the pitch (really bad Compound fracture of his shin) has left me with no fear of blood. I can handle people being sick (inc one friend who had her drink spiked and spent the whole dash to hospital being sick ON me) and I can sit down to a nice lapin dinner while watching watership down (mum was a veggie so grew up with her telling me all about the lovely lil animal i was eating)
So am pretty good with things that would normally turn most peoples stomach.....but those trials where they have to eat kangaroos nuts or raw fish eyes, i would throw up straight away. No gagging, spluttering or anything like that - as soon as that entered my mouth, up would come the contents of my stomach. I suppouse if it was small enough to swallow like a tablet I might be able to manage. But not if I had to chew it, no way no how not ever!!!!
I'm about as squimish as you valhallen. Blood and guts I'm ok with, I've killed gutted and eaten my own food plenty of times but eating live bugs and raw nads/eyeballs is a step too far. Cooked bugs I think I could do but not raw. I don't even like sushi or smoked salmon. Don't think I could be covered in bugs either. Rats no problem same with snakes etc. It was funny when Peter was getting bitten by the spiders :lildevil:
Euww-Jorden eating the eyeball and chewing on the lens.
Euww- Jenny bond folding up the bugs before chomping down on them.
sushi i can handle cause although it hasn't been cooked it has been prepared and at least looks like something you should be eating!
**** CUT OFF DATE BEING COMING UP****

Heh, got way worse things on video Asp. Hell the NIN video I've seen puts most of those to shame. Not to mention I've got Cannibal Ferox, Cannibal Holocaust, and "The Bloody Dead" and of course, The Gates of Hell in which there is a scene where the doors and windows all bust open with a windy storm of maggots everywhere, and this person goes nuts and eats decaying human flesh with worms all over it.
I've tried [and failed] at local 'delicacies' around the world whilst I was working in various shi7holes [oil is a bast*rd to find in any 7/11 / McDonalds carparks , even in the UK, it's 800' down under the sea .........]
so you ate what you were given, and in the spirit of my great uncle [japanese POW] you NEVER refuse food, and ALWAYS eat it.
but then I remembered that he died :eek:
so now I like my fish to be covered in batter and DEEP fried, and bugs stay in the garden......
tried that bug restaurant in the 'local' shopping mall [it closed within a couple of months - people complained to the local health officer :D]
but all their stuff was freeze dried, flash fried and tasteless [ which, looking back, was probably the best thing they did]
in short - I like to TRY different foods, but I don't have to try them TWICE ........ :p
[edit]
this thread seems to be veering wildly O/T
but it IS a fun ride
Yeah, but Val has to go through it all for the wallpaper. Kinda make ya wonder what it will all look like when he's done, eh?
;)
* me is incandescent with impatience to see the end result .........Quote:

damn, that reads like it came from that surreal compliment generator :)
Incorrect!................the deadliest spider is the Brasilian "Wandering Spider" its venom is 9 times more toxic than a black widdowQuote:
or someone who's never seen an Aussie brown. Most deadly spider ever
The worst Aussie one is the funnelweb.....................I believe that you are getting confused with the Australian "brown snake"?..............that is hellishly venomous, but would be competed with by the Taipan?
;)
Wow...can't believe I didn't look at this thread until now...interesting mug shots guys :) Oh well, since deadline passed guess I don't have to scrounge for a picture *whew*
nebulus200,you are still subject to show us your mug, dude. :)
I wanna see it, I wanna see it. :D
Yeah, the deadline ain't until THIS Thursday! Dang, and ol' stealth-nihil managed to post and leave without putting up his mug!
Blanket party!
;)
Gore, you is a sick puppy :D
I saw clips from cannable holocaust on a program about the sickest films ever.
Saw the chick on the spike and the cannable dudes munching down on someones guts. Nasty but very funny.
Ok everyone sorry for the delay. Had one of those day(s) in work at end of week so never got a chance to pull together the pics to make the wallpaper over the weekend.
However i will be doing so today! So you have until about 5pm GMT to get your pics in if you want to be included.
Man that movie rocks. I have it and watch it quite a bit. The Ipalement scene got the makers and director arrested when it came out and the film was confiscated by police. They thought it was snuff. Which I own too. It was recently re-released so I'm hoping to grab a copy.Quote:

What other movies made the list? Cannibal Ferox? Don't look in the basement? The Bloody Dead? Gates of Hell? Zombie Holocaust? I own all those ;)
i got a copy of movie as well, my old man got it some back via a work collegue. he didn't really like it so i took it of course and gave it a new home.. ;)
i'm currently reading a book on true crimes involving cannabalism, it's really interesting, on just how sick some people are.
