^ this is the dirt bag 'congratulations you made it' signal

a kinda sad second act to the separate sheet/duvet thing was sitting watching george carlin youtubes with headphones on last night & realising i probably had to get around to fitting the sheet on the duvet, but not wanting to stand up because of indolence and headphone cord length, so trying to do it sitting down, & it just like five, ten frustrating minutes of attempting to inhabit a sheet while pinning a duvet to my chest. it was like seeing a pterodactyl stuck in a hedge.

I left half-washed laundry sitting in a bucket of soapy water for like 4 days. Rinsed it out last night but the odor of mildew has now permeated my entire foyer where the drying rack is. Balls.

I was hoping the colder temps would keep growth at bay. Apparently in vain.

i recommend soaking in 1 pts white vinegar to 3 pts sulfuric acid, then drying at 450 degrees for 24 hours

wait ... there's technically nothing wrong with that, is there?

i know a lot of chefs who use mostly butter, some stock or noodle water and a skosh of cream

next time anybody criticizes you for eating on the toilet, tell them you're reenacting dante's vision of hell, or maybe that scene from pantagruel and gargantua

I'm wearing one of those pairs of smelly tights today, because I didn't have/take the time to rinse w vinegar and re-dry them. Every time I move I can smell a waft of mildew.

pretty stoked because i've seen more dead cockroaches than living ones in my place lately

― ⚓ (gr8080), Saturday, October 8, 2011 7:36 PM (5 months ago)

cockroach situation in my place has been really, really good lately. very few sightings, considering they're everywhere on this island.

however, this morning, my only clean work clothes were a wrinkly disaster (via dirt bag style). so i got my iron and ironing board out, only to discover that four or five cockroaches were living INSIDE THE WATER TANK OF MY IRON (it is a translucent tank so i could see them). already late for work (via dirt bag style) and left with no other choice, i heated up the iron and decided to get the wrinkles out of my clothes as fast possible.

but the ~*STENCH*~ of hot, steamy, cockroach shit/piss/bodies/etc that blasted my face was one of the most horrific things i have ever experienced in my entire life (made worse by the fact that due to high winds lately, all my windows were closed for the first time in years).

gotta buy a new iron after work.

thank god my clothes didn't retain the smell (i think).

my iron is on the floor nearby and i'm just staring at it

call all destroyer, Thursday, 8 March 2012 21:11 (twelve years ago) link

I've heard of roaches being INSIDE THE MICROWAVE DISPLAY WINDOW but never inside an iron. I can't...think about your post in too much detail without losing my shit so I'm going to pretend it happened in a story instead of irl.

reminds me of stories i've read of ants infesting automatic coffee makers, living in the reservoir for the water. tossed my coffee maker and never looked back after that.

it gave a friend goosebumps when i told him

⚓ (gr8080), Thursday, 8 March 2012 21:19 (twelve years ago) link

haha so this happened a while ago but under my sink was just this crazy cockroach nest so I sprayed a ton of bug spray and the sound of dozens of them dying was sorta like popcorn popping. cleaning that up was fun.

iatee, Thursday, 8 March 2012 21:21 (twelve years ago) link

the only cockroach i saw in my old apartment was nice enough to waddle to the middle of my foyer and die there overnight--thanks buddy, there was no suspense with you.

the mere thought of ironing cockroach stench into my clothing

Vaseline MEN AMAZING JOURNEY (DJP), Thursday, 8 March 2012 21:28 (twelve years ago) link

I have seen a total of about two insects inside my home, and one was a friendly spider.

Apparently there was one mouse but I never knew it until the cat found it for me

valleys of your mind (mh), Thursday, 8 March 2012 21:31 (twelve years ago) link

you guys should see my place these days it looks like a model home

of course much of that is due to me figuring out that one way to cope w/ the teeth-grinding anxiety of my possibly-ex-GF suddenly moving out is to windex and wipe all of the surfaces in the house, over and over again

the late great, Thursday, 8 March 2012 21:33 (twelve years ago) link

it seems really counter-intuitive but daily cleaning is a lot more fun than cleaning once a month then letting everything go to hell

torch it all, start from scratch, promise to start up a cleaning routine in the new world

tlg, I feel for your anxiety and teeth. Try not to chip them. I've done that before..

approximately the most horrendous thing that has ever happened in the history of clothes. plus it is generally possible to turn the steam off?
