Who Ya Gonna Call?

I am now the (ahem) proud bearer/recipient of my third sting this year. Yay for me!

Two different wasps have stung my head ... and on Wednesday a bee stung my finger. The head stings were definitely worse.

The two wasps that stung me both left with their sharp and pointy lives ... alas, the bee is no more.

Honey bees are able to sting other insects and live as they can withdraw their stinger ... but, with human skin, it's too dense. End result ... as the bee dropped off my finger ... I was left with the stinger in my skin and the poor bee had been disembowled in the process.

This whole thing started as I attempted to help another insect out of it's drowning predicament ... by using a leaf to get it out of the bucket of water it was flailing in (and yes, i was responsible for the bucket of water being there.) Having chosen a leaf, I found the bee ... in trying to help the bee, I got stung, the bee went off to die and I raced to the kitchen to find tweezers to remove the sting. Meanwhile, the insect in the bucket also met its demise.

So ... as I have said before in other posts ... I really shouldn't try to help.

I'm now sitting giggling, imagining what kind of 'bat signal' people would send up into the sky asking for my help ... and thinking to myself that those people would have to be highly optimistic masochists... ;-D

Dry but not arid

I love Castiel's sense of humour. His desert-dry autistic rizz that just occasionally switches mode into playfulness. He really commits to the deadpan angel bit for a full twelve seasons and that's the mark of a true seraphic wit. Immortality means you never have to rush the payoff to a gag.

Thematically, of course, this ties in nicely with Castiel's other enduring character trait of being thirsty as hell.

Oh gosh. I can't stop laughing

Hi Neil!

Our librarian fraternity is suddenly split on whether or not you actually exist. Any comment on the matter?

I'm with the side that thinks I don't.

i loooove sarcastic remus with dry humour that says the weirdest things with the straightest face and is mostly deadpan and quiet and funny and witty and ohhhhh

you are from new zealand right? I've always wanted to travel there! it's one of the countries on my bucket list🫶🏻

do you have any recommendations where to stay and what to do?🍥

I am!! And ooo I'd definitely recommend you visit the North Island, take a tiki tour around the country! The North island has some incredibly beautiful spots, alot of which was filmed for movies like the lord of the rings! You should also go glow worm caving, and come when its warm so you can go jump in our rivers! And we're famous for our meat pies 🥧 so adventure round and try those whenever you get the chance ✨️

I hope you have a great time!

The radio plays on and we're heading Out Of Africa. The Scuttlers have already been and stolen the airwaves at least once this morning, leaving nothing but the Flivivites to rampage through, hissing and popping until order was restored and the band played on. Weatherwise there's glimpses of sunshine but it is seriously cooooold out there. At least it's not raining! So woo hoo for that! I don't care what the traffic is doing ... it's far off in the distance and I don't have to join the melee today.

Not many apples this year, the weather Gods have smited their number and any that have grown are waaaaay up where I can't reach them. Gravity brought these ones to me, so 'Cheers!' gravity, I thank you kindly. Weird to have an Ireland that doesn't have the usual plethora of apple buckets lining the roads all saying 'Free', Help Yourself.'

The mice are busy making themselves at home. Grrrrrr! Brazen as you like. Even with two cats in the house and the canines, these critters truly don't give a shit. Loft Cat is a real thunder paws and lays siege at every turn. Captain Blackbeard couldn't give a crap. I'm old, he says ... 12 and counting ... and very much less than inclined to 'make friends' with the mice. Mr Snippy did give it a go the other night ... valiantly threw himself across the floor after one particularly 'run the gauntlet' kind of mouse decided to go the full length of the kitchen floor. However ... end result was Mr Snippy sliding, tumbling and going through a bout of sneezing ... whilst Mr Mousey disappeared once more up the curtain. Pretty sure he blew a raspberry at Mr Snippy once he'd reached the counter.

Friday, Friday, Friday ... time for breakfast and another mug of coffee ...

Thinking about Shannon Messenger's hundreds of main characters and why none of them seem to be truly fleshed out and how i think it's due to Shannon's sense (or her idea of a high schooler's sense) /style of writing humor. What started out as a unique character trait for Keefe has eventually become a clutch for her, helping her dial down the drama in the books and in this essay I will-

Misinterpreting Bang Chan at the big scary boss is like how I see so many people saw how Lee know is intimidating angry one like no he’s just very much a Scorpio that’s how he shows affection haha

No. He is really evil for real. Source: I think so in my mind. Signed, twt fans.
