Pirate Spiders

Sentynel: Hehehe, there's such a thing as a Pirate Spider.
Sentynel: It eats other spiders.
wintermute: Does it wear seven eye patches?
TalkingDog: And has three wooden legs.
Sentynel: Apparently they con other spiders into believing they've caught an insect by tweaking their webs, and then eat the spider when it comes to investigate.
Sentynel: Wikipedia was unenlightening about the presence of eye patches, wooden legs, or parrot spiders.
Goosey: TD: You rule.
* TalkingDog randomly pictures some sort of pirate fractal with parrots on both shoulders that have parrots on *their* shoulders, etc.
Goosey: "Pirate Fractal" would be a great name for a band.
Sentynel: Naturally, there is also a ninja spider, but nobody has ever managed to capture a specimen.

Bunny Webs

(This is in response to a conversation about spiders.)

TalkingDog: It'd be so much better if bunnies creeped in at night.
TalkingDog: They'd catch chocolate and candy in their fuzzy webs.

Leen and Celine on Caffeine

Ghost_of_Leen: The lady at Starbucks handed me 3 treat receipts, because for some reason the people before me did not want theirs.
Ghost_of_Leen: She just couldn't understand!
Ghost_of_Leen: So yeah, I can get 3 more today. -.-
Ghost_of_Leen: At only $2 for a grande!
Ghost_of_Leen: Someone would have to peel me off the ceiling.
Goosey: LOL
Ghost_of_Leen: o.0
* LaZorra peels Leen off the celine.
Ghost_of_Leen: Oh my.
LaZorra: Um.
Goosey: O.O
* LaZorra dies laughing.
Ghost_of_Leen: Was that a serious typo?
Ghost_of_Leen: OH MY
* TalkingDog whistles the Titanic theme...
Goosey: LEEN AND CELINE SITTING IN A TREE, P-E-E-L-I-N-G
LaZorra: LEEN YOU REALLY HAVE TO GET OVER CELINE DION
Ghost_of_Leen: EW
Goosey: Okay, that somehow sounds worse than I thought ...
* LaZorra cracks up even more.
