You know what's disturbing? Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

Sitting in front of your computer in your house, hearing a rustling sound above your head and looking up to see a black moth the size of your fist flapping around.

Gave me a hell of a start.

Not nearly as disturbing as a the thought of a young healthy man sitting at home on a Saturday night typing crap about moths into his computer.

You know what's even more disturbing? Waking up in the dead of night and looking over to see a hand reaching out for you, only to realise your arm is covered with a blanket and its your hand.

Urban...I am a decrepit old man with a child and a nearly wife partner. I had my first digital rectal exam yesterday, and, unlike a few others here, I neither enjoyed it nor look forward to its repetition. The good news is, my prostrate is "inconspicuous", whatever that means...he could have said "huge and bulbuous" for all I know, but it was hard hearing him through my sobbing and the thick cloying guilt and shame.
I sell cars for a living to people who either
A) couldn't buy steam off a burger
or
B) are fabulously wealthy and extremely cheap.

I have a right and a duty to be here...young, single men with glistening pectorals...err....ummm....never mind. Damn that exam! Something's been awakened!
You should get out more if a moth is the high point of your day, that's all.

My life is disturbing.
'nuff said.

The highlight of my day could have been one of three things:

1) Having grease up to my elbows because the lawnmower is shot

2) Watching a really crappy movie that was supposed to be good

3) Being attacked by killer moths

Crap Suffering from ads?

The reason I'm back is: remember that "moth"? Well, it turns out that it's actually the bat type of moth.

So how the hell do I get rid of it? I can't even find it now, cuz it flew off when I was approaching it with a garbage bag...

If I was in Alberta I'd pumb the house full of natural gas and either asphyxiate it or toss a match in and toast it.

The correct response would have involved Nickelback, since they are the Canadian contribution to "pop music" from Alberta while Celine Dion is Quebec's. (Although I like Nickelback!)

The last disturbing thing I saw was in January when I had my wreck.

Picture Sprayber early in the morning walking along the side of a ice covered road to help the person that slid off the road right after he did and from around bend in the road comes a pick up truck that has lost control at the same spot that Sprayber and the other car. Now imagine Sprayber still in the middle of the road trying to run on ice to get away from the sliding truck and the truck coming within a foot of hitting Sprayber.

That was disturbing.

I doubt it's a vampire bat. Mostly just a normal bat.

Jerry Pournelle told of a story of a bat that took refuge in he domicile during one winter when he was still an undergraduate.
