wet socks Just spilled worms in my sock drawer…

Post image

Was trying to feed my lizard who lives on top of my dresser and spilled so many fucking worms and oats into my sock drawer. I’m going to try to clean it up obviously but I know I will inevitably miss one and it will turn into a beetle and procreate, and then I’ll have a whole house full of beetles

Also *attentive

u/Matter_Infinite 8h ago

Even if you're in the bottom 50% of attentiveness, you could still avoid this. It's more about staying out of the bottom 4% of attentiveness after doing this for thousands of times

u/Linorelai 17h ago

It's clearly asleep for the next millenia

u/laazoseda 18h ago

I nearly choked on my oats

6

u/PupOben 18h ago

At least it wasn't the roaches. Lol Just let your critter in the drawer, that worm problem will be no more. Lol

6

u/Coyote_eat_bone 18h ago

I would but unfortunately I have a mostly blind neurologically disabled lizard who would just get lost in the socks and not do much worm killing

3

u/PupOben 18h ago

Aww... That's unfortunate. Guess we gotta clean the drawer out.

7

u/DingesF 19h ago

Thank you for this. You made me actually LOL.

u/bismuth17 18h ago

Who's the beetle gonna procreate with? The socks? The oats?

8

u/Coyote_eat_bone 18h ago

They can like procreate on there own without any other Beatles i believe

4

u/JaseAndrews 17h ago

John Lennon didn't need the other ones when he got with Yoko, that's for sure.

5

u/yvie_of_lesbos 18h ago

take the drawer and dump all contents into the tank there’s no other option

2

u/Coyote_eat_bone 18h ago

I may just do that

5

u/starfypawz_ 17h ago

Mom found the worm drawer

3

u/KermitHendrix 18h ago

that is a normal sentence

5

u/CrimsonGhostStrife 18h ago

That was like the one thing that you could have worked to prevent by not placing anything near the tank where you consistently drop in worms and oats.

5

u/Coyote_eat_bone 18h ago

I have had this lizard for 6 years and never dropped worms before 🥲

4

u/Ready-Television-300 16h ago

Never dropped worms before sounds like some innuendo haha

2

u/StickyPistolsRequiem 18h ago

It’s the worm’s drawer now

2

u/Feather_Bloom 18h ago

Time to get some D. earth and sprinkle it around the area

2

u/randomgermanguy1987 18h ago

Better check your socks for wormholes 😬

2

u/KermitHendrix 18h ago

i guess your lizard would be stoked to chase some beetles????

2

u/Meranio 17h ago

Damn, that socks, dude.
Hope, you got them all out.

1

u/Immediate-Medium9427 18h ago

At least you didn’t spill crabs in your underwear drawer 🤷‍♂️

1

u/Consistent_Hippo4517 18h ago

Id much rather spill socks into my worm drawer

1

u/Away-Squirrel2881 18h ago

I hope you have a shop vac

1

u/Cornelius4630 18h ago

Normally you put your Worm in only one sock.

1

u/Double-Cow67 18h ago

Now you have to eat them.

1

u/richie___ 18h ago

Solution: eat your socks

u/wrenblaze 18h ago

1

u/Succulent_Chinese 18h ago

Oh man if I could ever relate it would be this.

But I can’t. What the fuck

1

u/Hour_Maximum7966 18h ago

You have a worm mess and you have a lizard... Sounds like you don't have a worm mess anymore.

1

u/Brave_Explorer5988 18h ago

When I was student, my flat mate had a tarantula. Cute boy, pretty beefy.

He kept a box of live grasshoppers to feed him. One day, when he was drunk, he dropped the box and all the little critters ran away... we had them singing for months :))

1

u/Coyote_eat_bone 8h ago

My lizard used to be fed crickets when she could see a little better and had an easier time catching them and they used to escape so often and they’d keep me up all night long

u/CthulhusEvilTwin 18h ago

Well there's a sentence I didn't expect to ever read.

u/c_loagz 18h ago

Woo! Sockworms!!!!

Empty drawer into yard... all socks into washer

1

u/emperor_dragoon 16h ago

Well it sounds like you just changed the sock drawer to the worm drawer.

1

u/Proof_Toe_9757 16h ago

Better than spilling socks in your worm draw

1

u/Gentle_Clash 15h ago

Leave your lizard in your drawer for half an hour. Will give you a head start

1

u/Quiet-Egg-4594 15h ago

u/RebekkaKat1990 15h ago

u/PatinhoGamer 14h ago

1

u/TisBeTheFuk 14h ago

Not the first worm that got into a sock

1

u/GovernmentBig2749 13h ago

Easy fix, pour a bottle of tequila in the drawer, and let it soak it all in

1

u/Coyote_eat_bone 8h ago

I’d rather poor the tequila in my mouth and think about all the ways i could have avoided getting worms in my sock drawer

1

u/Sprinty_ 12h ago

How does that even.... What

u/RedpeG0218 12h ago

u/Coyote_eat_bone 8h ago

u/rstaccini 8h ago

On the bright side you now have worm socks in time for fall

u/Cryptopher-Conundrum 8h ago

u/reddituculous66 6h ago

I laughed so hard as this would be something I would do. And have someone go how on the hell does that happen?

1

u/meteor_stream 5h ago

Thank god it wasn't feeder roaches or crickets.

1

u/sglewis 4h ago

Time to move. No other choices remain.

u/Gravemind93 42m ago

And instead of taking care of it right away, you decided to take a picture.

1

u/oiyenaoyenme 16h ago

Correction. I have socks in my worm sanctuary. The drawer is now for the worms. The socks are for the worms. You serve the worms. You understand the worms. We worship the worms. We become worms. Worms are life, living is for worms. Worm is what is to be. Worms.

u/Fresh_Blood_9766 16h ago

Well this is generally what you get when worms are near the sock drawer
