Im pretty sure if I went to australia, once I stepped foot off the plane i'd be swooped up by a deadly carnivorous bird.

No, we use deadly carnivorous birds as planes, and Commonwealth regulations prevent them from coming within five hundred meters of one another. This is enforced by antigravity drop bear mines.

I was flipping channels and happened upon an infomercial, that is just really really stupid. I don't expect infomercials to be smart, far from it. But this one is just too stupid.

Its for a heating system, made by the amish. Thats fine because they actually have those, but its electronic. Then they go on to interview the leader of an amish group who makes the electronic fireplaces, and he as a northern USA accent.

You of all people should know not to throw around classified government documents like that, HongWang.

The Amish make the wooden cases, which are often quite lovely. The guts come out of a factory.

Is it weird that the more I hear about deadly things in Australia, the more I want to go there?~

Quite the opposite effect with me.
The same with me. It seems like Australia is the deadliest place in the world.
And I just realized something. The British threw their convicts there once, and you know what? They survived. The British created a breed of human that can easily disregard the laws of humanity, AND survive in a place where every five feet there's something that can kill you horribly.

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

Minding my own business on my computer, and all of a sudden, I have an 8-legged visitor (and a sizable 'smart one', as I call them). One WTF was that I wasn't terrified as usual (got over my fear a good time ago), but I was taken aback at the sight of it casually walking across my desk. That's the first WTF.

Failing to get it out my usual ways, I think that has to qualify as a "What the hell am I doing?" moment. I took a spare mouse and rapidly started clicking as a way to communicate with it (or curse it out in it's tongue). Kinda inspired by the thought that why they keep coming at me towards my machine, especially towards the speakers, mouse, and keyboard first (on top of the desk, not from below; a better blind-spot), is because of those very devices. Rapid clicking and other odds and ends frequencies flying around acts like a siren's song to them, and they just home in towards me if within earshot. So why not? Let's try it out.

I dunno what I said through the random mouse clickings, but I haven't seen the spider return yet. Must've sounded like a mad man or a chimera of species, or it was terrified that I was talking like it with the patterned and erratic clicking going on. I see it again, I'll see if I can tell it to get away so I won't have to crush it via clicking. I can imagine seeing a curious giant trying to speak like us would be rather disconcerting. Happy Halloween spider. Now get out.

EDIT:
Okay, so maybe it's no longer hanging out around my desk anymore, but yeah, I definitely had my own "What the hell am I doing?" moment there. Now I feel silly for having to resort to doing that to coax a spider into range.

I wanna say that's from SoR Remake.  Using one of the unlockable characters...yea, that guy...and doing the bad guy ending.   Hmm, can you imagine being bossed around by a boxing kangaroo?
