I’m taking a break from the usual postings of geekery and humor to post a few pictures and a video of the wife and I playing with an inchworm we found outside. Forgive the mouth breathing and what sounds like a faux-British accent. Also, yes, I am aware that I sound like kind of a d-bag when I contradict my wife on camera.
Also, my wife inadvertently shows off her Tool/Alex Grey-inspired wrist tattoo. Psychedelic hard-rockin’ tattoo high five!
Wow, that’s a pretty good camera we’ve got. It’s a Canon PowerShot A590-IS with special Decepticon sticker on the side that I custom installed myself.
Anyway, we went to return the little guy to his grassy home outside and, upon turning back to enter the house, we encountered this… UNHOLY BEETLE OF DOOM.
Holy freaking kaw, this thing was ornery and big. All clicking and buzzing and spitting. I don’t know what banana box the UNHOLY BEETLE OF DOOM crawled out of, but he barred our way back into the house. I knew I had to act quickly, so I frantically searched my brain for just the right monster-conquering quote.
“It’s time to kick ass and chew bubblegum,” I said with a sneer, “and I’m all out of gum.”
The wife rolled her eyes so hard that it made a sound. I grabbed a rake, picked up the DOOM-BEETLE, and launched him Evil Knievel-style over a far fence where he landed within reach of my neighbor’s dog, which was promptly eaten by the beetle.
No fake!
