    You're looking at my face like there's something on it, but neither Bérénice nor Naomie are wearing red lippy!
    Oh, there's an explanation. It isn't a red dress that Bérénice is wearing, you know.
    Kinky...
    It's painted on with lipstick? Nice. Bery nice.

    I just pay it lip service.

    So I was laying on my bed watching YouTube and I see something just beyond my phone and it was a CAMEL SPIDER ON MY BED! ONE OF THESE:

    Haha yes I did! But the shoe was on my foot and it was after I flailed around like an idiot trying to get off my bed away from it.

    You should've burned the house down and moved thousands of miles away, just to be sure.

    Seriously, are these spiders considered dangerous or not? I don't know.

    "Camel spiders eat or chew on people while they sleep. Their venom numbs the area so people can't feel the bites: Camel spiders are not venomous, and though their bites are painful, they are not deadly to humans, according to NSF."

    They won't kill you, they'll just hit you with some venomous anesthesia and eat your skin and flesh. All OK, then!

    Thanks for sending a wave of fear up my spine. Apparently it isn't even classed as a spider.

    I remember standing on a big huntsman about ten years ago - with my bare foot. Of course, I didn't realize it was there at the time! *shudder*

    One of the reasons I'm unlikely to ever visit Australia. Much safer here in Norway!

    As in every other country. Also, politicians and journalists are unlikely to be found crawling up from the foot of your bed like a big spider.

    At least tell us who the losers of the latest round are, so we can rub it in early.

    Something else: I just noticed that amazon.co.uk has the entire James Bond Collection (JB 1 through 24) on Blu-ray for a paltry GBP 42.41. OK, I've had them all on Blu-ray since 2012 (SP, of course, only since 2015), but I find it unbelievable how they can churn this out at about GBP 1.75 per disc. In 2012, the Anniversary Collection was over a hundred Euros, and I alread had several of the films on Blu-ray but I still bought it because overall it was cheaper than getting the missing ones separately.
