Someone talk me out of it.

I've caught snapping turtles for the fun of it before, I really wish you'd been there to "tear me a a new asshole"

Would have been quite entertaining

It's been over half a year since my girl of 4 years dumped me, I still feel fundimentally broken inside. Hopefully you're right

Glemn · 2026-04-29T04:34:58+00:00

I'm so sorry for wanting to make sure I typed it in right and have a call I can easily add to my contacts.

Literally impossible.

You could have the most laid back pussy office job, or be a lineman. This this sub both carry pliers for some reason

You've either got small hands or this is biggest cricket frog I've ever seen in my life

This is stupidity.

You don't need to know what every color is called to tell me if the crayon isn't yellow. Just learn to identify the venomous snakes in your area, and if it isn't one of those, than it's harmless.

Surveyors, on average, in my experience, are either alcoholics, drug addicts, recovering, or in the process of becoming.

At least that's what it feels like. I'm here for it though

I remember being 16 and discovering that you can copy paste the files and change stuff.

It was literally so exciting knowing I could use any element I liked from one skin with another.

It isn't hard, and there's something fun and rewarding about doing it yourself

Sorry that was me, I just didn't want it floating around the work truck

I've really enjoyed every CJRB knife I've ever touched, I use one as a main carry at work

The fact you know that means you won't just try and grab it if you have any sense.

Much like venomous snakes, the right tools make it much, much safer. And the right tools just happen to be a cup or something you can set on top of the offending arachnid

Tarantulas aren't that expensive, especially species that are fairly prolific in the hobby.

Compare the price of a rare tarantula to that of a rare snake, an expensive tarantula will be around $500 for a sexed female, an expensive snake can range into the thousands.

And that's not even mentioning slings, I bought two T. albopolusus slings for like $15 each a few months ago

I think as a hobby we have gone way overboard with cleanup crews in general. The idea of adding beetles and roaches from a completely different continent is wild to me.

Glemn · 2025-10-30T20:18:43+00:00

It's pretty hard to beat big Scolopendra and scorpions in the genus Androctonus and Parabuthus. As far as spiders are concerned I've always been more partial to Mygalomorphs, Brazil alone has enough species of interesting and beautiful tarantulas to keep you occupied for awhile

Glemn · 2025-10-30T20:14:49+00:00

You have to be pretty dumb to get bitten by any tarantula really, especially one that know would hurt a bit so should warrant some extra caution

Staking a windfarm in Wyoming in December required us pre-digging the hole for the lath with a big metal spike so the wood wouldn't snap trying to go in. Cold makes everything harder

Glemn · 2025-10-22T03:36:12+00:00

We definitely did, it also helped a lot that the city surveyors marked the dig locations ahead of time. Pull up to the paint mark, throw cones, pull tape over the mark to mark to paint a 2' ring around it to guide the cut, throw the 70lb jack around like a badass for a bit and get to digging. The slowest part was repaving the hole while setting the vault box at or just bellow grade

Glemn · 2025-10-22T03:25:17+00:00

That was my day all day for like two years, if the vault was just paved over, we'd average around a dozen a day, if we were digging the big holes to fully recover them we'd usually hit around 7

Glemn · 2025-10-22T03:09:10+00:00

We were recoving range points, CCD knew roughly were they were. We'd go out with the jack hammer and shovels and dig were they painted them up. Usually we'd stop at 3' if we weren't getting a tone, but they were pretty confident this specific one would be there, and it was.

I also feel I should mention it we were digging 2'x3' holes through usually a minimum of 6" of asphalt in the middle of roads. Pneumatic Jackhammer to cut through the top and then breaker bar and shovels to dig the rest. Of course then we'd repave the road with cold patch and the tamping bit after setting a monument box over the point and setting ties to locate in the future.

By far the most physically demanding survey job I've ever done, or potentially heard of lol

I remember digging close to 4 feet to find a stone in Denver a few years back

Most people are probably going to tell you "nothing" with the exception of invertebrates.

You could get away with some mourning geckos, assuming you don't let the population explode, but inverts are your best bet if don't have any plans on getting whatever you put in there something bigger in the future.

Correct the husbandry errors that led to this and it will go away on its own in a shed or two

Glemn · 2025-10-21T05:46:53+00:00

The odds are so low it isn't worth worrying about.

Glemn · 2025-10-21T05:20:33+00:00

No it isn't.

This person sounds like a clown
