there are bottles for that lol - how you guys survive and thrive there is beyond me I have severe arachnophobia - I would die - give me snow and mountains and I will show you how to survive but like everything there is deadly and I salute you guys for thriving in spite of that plus have visited sydney, melbourne, and tasmania for a nature trek - I like being in nz more though, only because there are no natural land based predators, though a lot more sandflys when on the south island trekking

I'll take my chances with any animal over a deranged person with a gun to be honest

we have that problem here and need real gun control - I am not saying ban them but background checks beyond the simple 90 second one, classes to know how to handle, and a waiting period... but the republicans here will fight that tooth and nail and frame it as they're coming for your guns people - like no we aren't we just want responsible gun ownership

I once ran naked into my dorm room hall because there was a scorpion on my towel in italy because I left my window open - just nope - I screamed like a little bitch and ran into the hall but naked after my shower - faced a lot of mockery for that - also never opened my windows in my dorm again.
