I just closed 47. All of them Amazon...

My best friend is having a babby...

Xmas...

Starting a small business and tools are needed...

I just moved to south Florida, and the bugs are the size of house cats, so I require a salt shotgun...

SO. MANY. HOLIDAY. DEALS.

Like I've never been a shopping addict, but I had a budget of about $1000 for all of that, and I blew through it QUICK.

I could see how it could be addictive, but I do know when to walk away.

Lmao, I feel that in my soul

When I first moved to south Louisiana, I encountered a giant (black and orange) grasshopper. My first thoughts were along the lines of, "Wtf kind of grasshopper is that!? Did I move to fucking Jurassic Park or something!? Fuck!"

It was very jarring to see insects so big (milipedes that excrete some kinda fluid when touched, ground spiders, thunker af orb weavers, wood roaches flying)... now that I actually type it out, it still seems like Jurassic Park almost 20 years later lol; but I'm not much bothered anymore by most of them.

But the electrified tennis racquet for killing mosquitos... that shit is priceless. Wish I could find the $5 walmart ones still, because I would dual wield them and have extra for guests. I've gone from mosquito prey to predator, and it's a joy
