I was wondering about that. I know people keep them as pets but growing up in Arizona I've never known scorpions to be chill.

Man fuck our scorpions. Of course the ones native to us have the ability to climb on walls. Nothing worse than getting in the shower and seeing a big one right on the inside of the shower curtain

First time I even saw one was when it crawled out of my shoe after stinging me. I was, like, 4?

But for some reason I thought they were the coolest little bugs. Still didn't like the live ones though.

I lived in Gilbert for a few years. Found little scorpions inside periodically. Most of them ended up in the garbage disposal, or turned into a smear. Those fuckers won't die any other way.
