Did you tell a bad joke recently?

[–] Chickenstalker@lemmy.world 24 points 1 year ago

Get a cat. They will launch a pogrom not seen since WWII.

Maybe a neighbor of yours has reptiles as pets and it's their crickets that are escaping.

Maybe there's a mob spawner in the wall?

Joke aside, they either follow someone in or climb all the way in.

Get huntsman spider, it's quicker

Those spiders are cute though. However, nothing beats having a reptile staring you down while plotting the most horrifying way it can murder you.

You have likely never met a Veiled Chameleon in it's natural state on its own turf, my friend.

You have chosen wisely.

When a cham is posing like that, all bad-ass and such, giving it scritches will immediately deflate its ego. That is, if it doesn't try to bite your finger off first. If you make it past the bitey part, you will never see something else deflate so quick into a state of embarrassment. Complete ego destruction, as it were.

You can save money on your car insurance...

That's what happens when you build on the spawn block

Because a cricket laid eggs in your apartment.
