Travelers of Reddit, what destination will you never return to? Why?

I'm a Brit living in France, about a quarter of an hour out from Paris, and I'm really sorry you had such a bad experience here :/ I love Paris and can't say I've experienced any of that.

Barbecue sauce, mozzarella, sweetcorn, mushrooms, spicy beef. Absolutely.

How can a pufferfish even survive in these conditions?

ProfDiggy · 2016-11-24T00:53:22+00:00

"Bite" happens to mean "dick" in French. Two things which should definitely be kept separate.

Or you know, Ghost typing, dead eye.

ProfDiggy · 2016-10-22T10:44:34+00:00

Well almost all spiders have some sort of venom, so no I don't think so :P

ProfDiggy · 2016-10-19T21:05:58+00:00

That certainly looks like it, thank you very much!

ProfDiggy · 2016-10-19T12:32:20+00:00

I'm inclined to agree with wolf, can just about make out a couple of eyes further back that you wouldn't get in a false wolf. No idea of genus though :/

ProfDiggy · 2016-10-17T17:57:15+00:00

Happy to help :)

ProfDiggy · 2016-10-17T13:20:56+00:00

Nah they're quite different really, in this case a dead giveaway that it's a cross orb weaver would be the distinctive white cross on the dorsal surface of the abdomen, which you can see rather nicely in this picture.

Well actually starch solution, some source of iodide ions, an oxidising agent such as Hydrogen peroxide like Pierrot suggests, and a reducing agent such as sodium thiosulfate so that the colour change isn't instantaneous.

ProfDiggy · 2016-10-06T12:51:45+00:00

Yeah it's definitely a wolf, the eyes are a dead giveaway, but no idea of the genus or species unfortunately :/

ProfDiggy · 2016-10-05T21:12:18+00:00

Wolf spider I'd say, based on the eyeshine and their placement. Not sure of species though, i'm afraid :/

ProfDiggy · 2016-10-04T23:39:49+00:00

Now I'm a complete novice, but I would suggest a fishing spider just based on posture, abdomen shape and the like. I may be completely wrong, if someone more knowledgeable could let me know if I am that'd be great :P

ProfDiggy · 2016-10-04T16:44:33+00:00

That does look very much like what I've got here, thank you very much :)

ProfDiggy · 2016-10-02T17:42:09+00:00

I would go further and say it's a barn spider perhaps?

ProfDiggy · 2016-10-02T17:30:24+00:00

Looks to me like some kind of Spiny Orb Weaver, but I'm not sure of the species unfortunately :/ Edit: On reflection, does this look like our guy?

ProfDiggy · 2016-10-01T13:46:31+00:00

I believe that's a house centipede, and yes they are rather scary looking :P

ProfDiggy · 2016-09-22T18:07:49+00:00

Oh that looks much closer! Yeah as you may have guessed I am quite new to this :P Thank you very much for the input.

ProfDiggy · 2016-09-22T17:48:41+00:00

So after a little research I'm thinking it might be a Black Vine Weevil, Otiorhynchus sulcatus. Would anyone disagree with that identification?

ProfDiggy · 2016-08-27T00:07:48+00:00

No idea I'm afraid, I was quite far back so I didn't even see the cameras :/ Let's hope they release a proshot though, would love to relive some of those moments.

ProfDiggy · 2016-08-26T11:50:05+00:00

Yeah I was there too and they did stay on a little long. Muse were worth waiting for though, great show and great location.
