Most folks know that "Kill it with fire!" is meant as a joke.  It also brings new meaning to the term 'overkill'.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

Maybe we ought to have a dollar/damage-related Darwin Award.

Death or removal from the gene pool not required, just collateral damage beyond a certain amount, including medical bills for those injured including the awardee.

I don't know what we should call it... just don't suggest the Terry Award in my "honor."  ;/

In Michigan we do not mess around.  We deal with spiders in an aggressive manner. [ar15]

May your tribe increase.

And FWIW, I use a size 13. Or detcord.

It's been a bad year for arthropods around here. Well, good for them; bad for us. We had an extremely wet spring/early summer, and they just seemed to be out of control.

This guy has to be a cousin of one of the *expletive deleted*ers I work with.

I'm changing the propane cylinder on a forklift and when I go to hook up the full cylinder I don't realize the valve on the tank is open so when I hook the hose up i release a cloud of propane before I can get it shut off.

mother *expletive deleted*er comes over with a lit cigarette in his hand to see what is going on and RESTS HIS HAND ON TOP OF THE PROPANE CYLINDER. I *expletive deleted*it you not, my life flashed before my eyes and I thought I was a dead man

We have tons this year too. I can't walk from the house to any outbuilding without getting web in my face. It's mostly tons of the daddy long leg looking spiders, but we have a big increase in black widows this year too. I must have killed a few dozen around the house already, and that's just ones out in the open, not me finding them behind or under whatever. Usually I see just a few a year.

If you wear a size 10, are you undershoed?

It means you probably wear lace on your panties socks.

'Twas inspired by a bit of gun lore of which I was recently reminded by someone alluding to it in another thread some days ago:

http://www.gundigest.com/gun-blogs/books/askins-gun-review-44-magnum

Quote
This Magnum is a man’s gun. It ain’t for boys. Word reaches me that some joes, probably with lace on their panties, are putting on gloves to shoot it. I hear that after a few shots your hand feels like you had been swinging at some fast balls with a cracked bat. How soft can we get?

Get rid of him.  I think I know a plant nursery that will take him on for seasonal help.   >:D
