Just squirted a nail on the wall with bug spray
thought it was a spider. Another reason getting old sucks, as if I needed more.
:scared:

3. Noooo, not a nail!
Seriously though, why would you spray a spider? They catch other bugs for you!

8. No
But thanks for the rolling eyes.

Spiders keep the amount of other bugs down, for free, without poison.

10. I appreciate the sensibiities involved.
Spiders & bugs totally freak me out. But remember, it was a nail, not a real spider I squirted.

9. or even if you can't handle a spider in your house
violence is more eco-freindly
use a shoe, rolled up magazine, or :think: a fly swatter

4. lp - time for glasses....or stronger glasses.....I am still trying to figure out
the instruction manual I got with a digital camera I bought 3 years ago...It doesn't even work anymore.

Getting old is better than being dead, but that's about the extent of it...

17. Yeah, it sure seems like they're using much smaller print these days too. Luckily, I
have an all-in-one laser. I just scan the area I can't read and enlarge it as much as I want.

23. Better to kill those nails...
Before they lay eggs. Otherwise, you'll be infested with them.
