So it arrived damaged. Never mind, I thought, it's what's inside that counts...

Travelling with your advent - now that is what I call dedication @Cheeseandcucumber

Opheliasgoldenwine · 09/12/2017 19:12

Furry that sounds good Smile

twinklefeather · 09/12/2017 23:23

loving this thread Grin sorry not sorry.

Cheeseandcucumber · 10/12/2017 10:55

Xmas Grin Menace I am a convert, no more decent ACs for me - opening utter shite everyday is the way forward.

I did indeed bring the calendar, how could I not?! Fortunately there were no airports involved as I'm sure it would have been confiscated by some green eyed security staff.

Day 10 has provided TWO gifts Xmas Shock

The first is another of the tiny pots we're now so used to seeing and as we've all learned, they usually bring us something glittery and extra shitty - shittery if you will. Today is no exception, we have a pink eye powder that provides the ultimate shitteriness.

But what about the second gift, I hear you all ask.

For that we need to look inside the pot of shittery eye powder...

In there, we will find two spider's legs.

No way 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳 seriously??? You are being SO SPOILED

thegrinchreaper · 10/12/2017 10:59

Omfg! 😂 maybe they couldn't be bothered with providing some false lashes....'don't want to break the budget, sling these spider legs in one of the pots of dust instead'

ChardonnaysPrettySister · 10/12/2017 11:47

They will probably be able to see you from Space in all you glittery glory after you open all the windows OP.

sugarlost · 10/12/2017 11:56

Pissing myself!!!!

On a serious note....are there instructions for the spiders legs?

Whiterabbitears · 10/12/2017 12:24

Shittery! GrinGrinGrin

HuskyMcClusky · 10/12/2017 12:27

This is gold. Grin

clairethewitch70 · 10/12/2017 13:42

The rest of the spider is probably at the bottom of the pot.

Cheeseandcucumber · 10/12/2017 13:43

Xmas Grin Of course! They're false lashes! Silly me for mocking them, so ungrateful.

I haven't checked if the rest of the spider is in the dust, must do that. Or perhaps I'll get the other legs spread over the next 3 days and the body on Christmas Eve.

I might have considered sharing my funnel with you all, what with the amount of envy evident from the replies, but not my spider legs. I'm sorry but they are all mine!

Use the funnel to pour out the shittery to find the rest to the glittered spider.

snowflakestar · 10/12/2017 14:57

Shock Grin

GottadoitGottadoit · 10/12/2017 14:58

Holy hell!

ChardonnaysPrettySister · 10/12/2017 15:04

Do they have a "No spiders were hurt in the making of this Advent Calendar" disclaimer?

Otherwise who knows....

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 10/12/2017 15:22

A new low today - bits of spider?! You couldn't make this up. Who knows what's lurking behind the other doors, could be an infestation. Xmas Shock

Have you been crying OP? Oh hang on, that's just the pink eyeshadow Grin

lubeybooby · 10/12/2017 15:24

oh my fucking god. there really are spiders legs Xmas Shock

ScarlettDarling · 10/12/2017 19:13

Op I don't think they're spiders legs. I think they're pubes Grin
This thread is hysterical!

HateSummer · 10/12/2017 19:14

I’m reading this thread everyday for jokes! But really, are those REAL spider legs?! Really? Or is it bits of false lashes? I’m shocked 😱

IheartCaptainHolt · 10/12/2017 19:18

Even if they are bits of false lashes I'm not sure that's much worse than spider legs!

HateSummer · 10/12/2017 19:23

True, but...spider legs?! 😱 could you put the legs on a white piece of paper so we can analyse what type of spider they belong to? They look more like cockroach antennas to me 🤢

ChardonnaysPrettySister · 10/12/2017 19:54

If we keep talking about spiders here someone will demand a trigger warning in the OP.

Cheeseandcucumber · 10/12/2017 20:12

Xmas Grin I think I'd prefer spider legs to pubes but I'm not sure on roach antenna v spider leg, tough one.

Just for you, Hate, I tweezed the legs out of the pot and onto some paper. I had a little rummage to see if I could find any more legs and found a small, hard, round object. I wonder if it's spider shit? Maybe that's what all of the glitter is made from?? Xmas Shock

claire Xmas Grin you solved the funnel puzzle, now it all makes sense! It was always supposed to be for sifting bug limbs from the glitter.
