Spiders generally use elaborate courtship rituals to prevent the large females from eating the small males before fertilization, except where the male is so much smaller that he is not worth eating. In web-weaving species precise patterns of vibrations in the web are a major part of the rituals, while patterns of touches on the female's body are important in many spiders that hunt actively, and may "hypnotize" the female.*points* WHEN I TELL YOU WIKIPEDIA RUINS LIVES I AM NOT KIDDING. *sits in a corner and waits for the seamstress to go away*
Went out with
narnizzle today and saw
Bolt and it was awesome. XD I loved it. There are several icons that must be made for it, and Neek said she'd try to find screencaps, so yay. :D I picked up some Dresden Dolls CDs for the sake of supporting Miss Amanda Palmer, and a diary and calendar, and some more tea, and generally dragged Monique around, up, down, and back again. XD; Which is more or less the norm.
Also the movie reminded me that there are certain bits of Rook and Thom that need playing around with, and I intend to be the woman to do it. (They're the same bits that require playing around with in Felix and Mildmay, oddly, and no, they are not the bits you are probably thinking of.)
I am so tired omg. =_= One day I have to stop feeling this crushingly dead every time I do anything outside my house. Or inside my house, really. I just need to stop feeling exhausted in general.
Also: the most amusing word mistake in fanfiction is the
wonton moan. I cackle
every time. All I can hear is this moan, like a zombie lusting for brains:
wontonnnnnnnnssssssdjasfhs.
[EDIT] I wish I understood what the hell was happening in HoneySyn. :(
