Banzai Posted October 24, 2004 Report Share Posted October 24, 2004 Thanks for that... THE FOLLOWING IS AN ENTIRELY, 100%, TOTALLY TRUE STORY Being the sad bugger I am, I bought an Antquarium from IWOOT.com. It was marvellous, watching all 8 little anties scuttling rounds and digging tunnels...until I found there were only 7. Mildly perplexed, I left the thing on top of my computer and went about my work. I looked in next day, to find...6 ants, digging tunnels... ...then 5... ...then 4... One day I took to watching them. My my, how amazing they were. Amazing creatures, but harmless...until I found one scuttling up the side and then clinging to the roof of the Antquarium. I watched in amazement as it tried to sqeeze itself through the tiny breathing holes in the lid...and succeeded. I pushed the little bigger back in with the blunt end of pin, and formulated a plan. I placed 2 1p coins partially over the holes, held in place with blu-tac. It allowed the holes to be about half open, letting the ants breathe but not letting them escape. I went on holiday to America for 2 weeks. When I retured...I found one ant going about his business, albeit rather sluggishly, and the other 3 lying dead on the top. It turns out that as the temperature changed, the blu-tac expanded and contracted, and pulled the penny right over the hole, suffocating the ants. Needless to say I was shocked by this occurance. I threw open the lid, and evacuated the remaining ant (READ: stood in my porch and flicked him out off a stick). Then I dumped the rest in a shady patch at the bottom of the garden, where no-one would discover the bodies and traces of mass anticide. Yes. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> 0_o wow,. just wow, back when i was a scrapper we blew or burned them alive, not raise them, lol Link to post Share on other sites

Possum Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 My friend had an ant problem in his back garden, so he bought several ant repellents and chemicals, but they didn't have much of an effect so what genius idea did he come up with that not even the best scientists could come up with...................................petrol lots and lots of petrol then boom it went up very fast burning half the garden he was trying to save but it was very funny Link to post Share on other sites

Rikkster Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 Think I mentioned this before, but here goes... Get a bumblebee in a jar. How you accomplish this is entirely up to you. Put said bumblebee in the freezer for about fifteen minutes. This'll give it a "Han Solo" and freeze it without killing it. Then take it out and tie a bit of string around it. Let it warm up and voila! A Bee On A Leash to attack friends with* *It may get very angry and attack you instead. I absolve myself of all blame in this eventuality Link to post Share on other sites
