I wonder if that means the books are in better condition than usual- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I almost died looking at the ugly b%^&*. I've got some out in the comic cavern / pool room that look like mice when they run by. The good thing about the big ones is they're easier to spot and eliminate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayman Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 Spiders I can handle, I even have a "spider cup" that I use to catch and release the ones i find inside the house and drop them outside. They eat the other pests that bug me so I'm spider friendly. It's these guys I friggin hate! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NerdHouse Comics Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 I've got a ton of long boxes below my father's house. It's been exposed to the weather for several years, so I don't know the exact condition. They were given to my mom from a friend of hers who worked at an LCS way back in the mid-90s that closed down. I often wonder if there's anything of value in the long boxes. I have been tempted to go down there but haven't had time to do so yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senormac Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 I'm still in the process of packing my attic. The kids who inherit it will find all kinds of great stuff. Not sure how good a shape it will all be in, but hey,...… it's an attic find 1950's war comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The good thing about the big ones is they're easier to spot and eliminate. I had arachnophobia until I was about 22. Now I have a pure hatred. I get the same adrenaline seeing these big, ugly b%^&*es, but (instead of running and crying) it keeps my mind sharp and my arms swift when wielding my hockey stick to crush every atom of their physical existence. I let daddy long legs have free reign in my apartment unless they're huge. I once saw one with a 6" leg span run across the wall next to my bed. It still had a tiny body, but I was like, "nah you've evolved to an uncomfortable size". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
