I just murdered the shit out of a huge white tail spider. They are spiteful, angry creatures.

I'm also nearly out of bourbon.

What bourbon?

[–] bull@aussie.zone 4 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Jim Beam black cans. Not overly sophisticated but I'm a Melton basic bitch at heart.

That's too classy for Melton.

They run Woodstock tall boys

I guess I'm upper class Melton bred because I've always been a Beam boy.

Wild turkey packs more punch, but I get your sentiment

Ooh haven't had any of those so far, I don't like them either, but I've had to put a few mummy long legs outside. I don't mind them but the kids are a bit anxious about them, despite me giving the spiderbro spiel. Especially the last two, they were actually quite large and leggy looking. The kids ask me to deal with it because I've got the knack for catching them, and they don't want them killed, just gone.
