    The big spiders in Texas came out after dark. I remember stomping on a huge one
    on the patio at about 1a.m. it looked so big because it was a mommy spider.
    Hundreds of little ones came off her back and up over the sandal onto my foot.
    Just like some cheap b horror film.

    I did a double take, then booked it.

    LOL, that's old school lingo right there!!!

    I'm not sure what that is (other than an insect). It looks like something on the grasshopper-katydid-praying mantis-walking stick spectrum, but not anything I am familiar with. It also looks like it's missing one of its big back jumpy-leggy things(?). :/

    two from our budskis at ASR that tickled my fanny fancy. (my little joke is even more perversely funny - or funnily perverse - if any of all y'all are from the UK) B)

    I only understood the plumber school one.

    Billy didn't know how to use the wrench.

    Well you know that at least I am from the UK - but didn't get your "little joke". Is it the "tickle your fanny" reference? If so, you may be the wrong sex. Or was that the joke?

    Popular Mechanics has an article about Texas and Hammerhead Flatworms:
    et6u2q2q24ov.png
    0jwght1p9xjr.png

    There’s an invasive species of worm making itself known in Texas once again—the hammerhead flatworm. These worms are toxic, hard to kill, and dangerous to native critters like earthworms, but likely pose little danger to humans or larger animals. Experts encourage people to kill these worms on site, and to avoid touching them directly, as the toxins they produce can irritate skin.

    They might not be as ferocious as the sandworms from Dune, but hammerhead worms are nothing to sneeze at themselves. They’re toxic. They can carry parasites. They can grow to over a foot long. If they're cut in half, both halves regenerate.

    They are also up here too

    Nah, it was the angle. I have another shot for you. The thing was pretty good size for a grasshopper. The body alone was close to three inches....

    Bird? You lost me...
    Near as I can tell, those are throw pillows in the back of the shag'n-wag'n.
    Thanks to the abilities of Google Lens, I found this from the same photo shoot, but with the shrubbery missing.

    Back in @msg's circled pic, you can see what looks to be a birds head looking over the pillow....

    Yes, precisely. From a British perspective, most of the members here are fanny-free.
    Not that I mean to judge, of course.

    American (or, I guess, Canadian) fannies may be perched upon vinyl thanks to FB Marketplace and a maker in British Columbia.
