It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything about bugs…okay,
that’s mainly because it’s been forever since I’ve posted anything at all. My bad. Stop yelling at me.
Anyway, a couple of months ago, I was
getting ready to feed my cat some new food that came in a box instead of a bag.
It was a brand new box, so you can imagine my confusion when I went to pour it
into her bowl, and small bugs rose up from the food like an army of undead
assholes. With wings. For a minute I stood there, staring dumbly at the bowl as
most of them gave me the finger and flew away, presumably to find something else
to contaminate or a nice cozy place to lie in wait until they could regroup and
attack me in my sleep. I don’t know…I’m not sure how these bugs work. They
seemed evil so I’m just going to assume that they’re plotting to attack me at
my most vulnerable. All I could think as I stared down at the bowl was, “Oh God…this
isn’t happening. I’m hallucinating. I’m having a bad acid trip…wait, I’ve never
done acid. It’s probably a stroke.” I dumped the whole bowl into the sink
because I wasn’t sure how to dispose of a whole horde of these flying
monstrosities. I immediate turned on the hot water because damn it, if I was
going to drown them, I was going to do it with boiling hot water. I wanted to
make sure that the remaining flying asshole zombie bugs saw exactly what I was
capable of in the hopes that they would decide that it was a better idea to
just go ahead and end it all then instead of sticking around to die by my hand.
Much to my disappointment, I didn’t hear their tiny terrified screams
resonating around my apartment.
I went to Austin for the weekend
and had forgotten about them until I went to grab something out of the laundry
room when I got home, and I looked up at the ceiling and counted seven or eight
of them on the ceiling. I grabbed the closest thing I had to bug spray and Febreezed the shit out of those
motherfuckers. I was hoping to kill them, but thought at the very least, if
they were going to be flying around my apartment, they could make it smell
nice. It’s all about compromise. Well, apparently they didn’t see it the same
way….I guess watching one of your buddies get taken out by Christmas scented
Febreeze will cause you to snap. Who knew? Anyway, one day I was walking
through my apartment when out of fucking nowhere one of those bastards flew AT.
MY. FACE. I’m talking it straight up dive bombed me. Did you guys know moths
could do that? Cause I didn’t! Well, being the stoic, completely in control
individual that I am, I freaked the fuck out and ended up slapping myself in
the face as I did my best impression of an epileptic, mid-seize. I’m amazed I didn’t swallow my tongue.
Like this, only with more face slapping. |
Seriously, you would have thought the God damned Mothman had snuck up on me.
Although if it had been the Mothman, I would have apologized for being in his
way and quietly left and not gone chasing him around my apartment trying
to kill him by clapping like a retarded seal.
But it wasn’t him; it was just one tiny asshole moth, so I did the
latter…I just thought about what all of that must have looked like to anyone who
could see into my apartment.
Great…now I’m the retarded,
epileptic girl who runs around her apartment applauding empty rooms and then
does an “In-Your-Face” victory dance when she’s done. Le sigh...
Yeah, that's about right... |
BAHAHA, this is hillarious for so many reason. My two favorite reasons are:
ReplyDelete1. I can totally see your face wh en you open the box and see the bugs. It's like I'm there! A fly on the wall, if you will...
2. I really pictured flying undead assholes. Literally, decaying butts. I'll draw you a picture.
And wtf with the cat food?! I would have been livid beyond belief. Especially with all the petfood horror stories always in the news. Damn the Chinese. Why yes, that was radically racist of me. Thank you.
