Popular Post The Grohl Posted October 25, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 25, 2023 When you're explaining via email what green entries mean on a spreadsheet and type "Everything else in Green Day was successfully updated." 🤦♀️ And then you still manage to type green day when you try to fix the error.

Slave To The Network Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 I have another story to tell before getting to the "you know you're a green day fan when..." part. So... it all starts with approximately 400 tarantulas being confiscated at SeaTac airport after they were illegally trafficked into the country. Some of the poor things had died already, but the living were taken under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Department of Fish and Wildlife. The department tried to send as many as possible to accredited zoos and other educational organizations, but there were just too many and the remaining 224 spiders ended up at the Washington State University veterinary hospital. At this point, Fish and Wildlife was basically like "Okay well as long as they are going to a place where they will be used for outreach or something that's good enough. We just need them re-homed." Long story short, I helped pick up about 30 tarantulas today from the vet hospital to distribute to people and some to keep as part of my department's teaching collection and now I have one too. Anyway, you know you're a Green Day fan when you name your new little baby tarantula Gloria, after the 21CB character. Here is a picture of her. I will spoiler it for those who don't like spiders.

Nice name though, even for a t….. 😉 Sorry if I have made you uncomfortable. I just really think they are such neat animals. The pictures on my Instagram are not Gloria, but they are some of our outreach critters that we take to educational events. Mine will not be that big for quite some time. She is only a little baby right now. I will try to tone down the arachnid pics if that helps you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jengd Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 oh no, I didn’t mean you to do that and no need to apologise. I am a huge animal lover and am well aware of how stupid a phobia it is. I think it actually helps me a little to see and hear stuff like this but there is a risk of phone/iPad getting flung across the room 😂😂😂. You are doing great work. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerjeezus Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 I’m not a fan of spiders either but she’s little and fluffy (for now). It great that you’re giving her a home and that the other spiders are taken care of too. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pouty bitch Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 Tarantulas are adorable! I'd love to have a pet one someday. Gloria looks like the sweetest lil bub, such pretty legs! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's a Colombian giant red leg and they can get up to 8 inches (measured diagonally from back leg to front leg). I will probably not see her grow to this size, because I am planning to donate her to our university teaching collection when I graduate... if I can bare to part with her. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Grohl Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 When you're watching an MTV VMAs compilation and two seconds in you correctly identify the 2005 VMAs based on the water fountain because it makes you think of the photo shoot Green Day did for the awards where they were all wet. Needless to say, my bf was confused and impressed by my talent (This is the best version of the picture I could find - Green Day in the top left corner) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
