Santiago Chronicles III

[antonchigurh]

The last few days have been very interesting. Santiago keep collapsing and passing out a lot the other day, so I decided to give him a break that night. I decided we’d go rent a movie so we went to Blockbuster. Once I picked a movie out I went up to the counter and it went downhill from there. The cashier told me I had a ridiculous fine because I

I tried to tell him the dangers of fire ants but he thought I was exaggerating. He's very thick-headed and slow, so I felt that was the best way to teach him.

[carlomelo]

Ah yes,
"trial and error"

it's the only real way to put your point across. (This applies to me too)

[carlomelo]

Hahah I see he showed you a sample of his "thieving skills"! Heheheh

I'm impressed! You're really controlling him well!
The fire ants made me think of the new Indiana Jones movie. Yikes. Poor Jesúcito. D8

"I see he showed you a sample of his "thieving skills"
Yes. His useless thieving skills.

"I'm impressed! You're really controlling him well!"
There would be no other way.

"The fire ants made me think of the new Indiana Jones movie."
Actually, seeing that scene reminded me to take care of the fire ant colonies.

Heheh....

Who knows, he might even be motivated enough to hold a JOB (SHOCK!) when he gets back!

[antonchigurh]

That might be pushing it.

The next day we worked on killing the fire ants* in one of my fields.
Fields? What kind of fields you got? Killing Fields? [hai movie reference!!1 XD] Strawberry fields? Bananas?

[antonchigurh]

No, Pol Pot, not killing fields (though they can come in handy). Or strawberry fields. Or bananas. They're just... fields. I don't know what more I can say.

[symphonic_dame]

ahaha.

..I had to look up Pol Pot, didn't know who he was.

There's nothing super seekrit~ about them fields that you're hiding from us, is there now?

[antonchigurh]

Yes. I have one of the Crystal Skulls buried there.

[kuroirinkku]

nice so he stole a empty dvd case and a shirt too small for you.... that's Epic!

[antonchigurh]

Well, the shirt did fit him. Until we had to burn it.

Oh, RIFAs. Those little fuckers. My cousin and I came across a RIFA mound while at my uncle's house in Florida - he was 9 years old and I was 11, IIRC. We were running around barefoot on the lawn, busy pelting each other with unripe avocados we'd stolen from the avocado groves next door to my uncle's house (unripe avocado = roughly the hardness of a rock) and didn't even notice all the ants at first... but hoo boy, we sure noticed when they started biting. Our howls could probably have been heard for miles. Our feet and calves swelled up and got all these little white dots. It was disgusting. Fucking RIFAs, I still have a grudge against them.

[antonchigurh]

They swarm you and bite all at once. Painful. Teamwork at its finest.
