highstreet - hand of god

[thomas_highstreet]

so. tonight i was just making dinner, sipping at some OJ out my back door, when i noticed this little thing on the floor. i thought it was a squashed frog, and i collect such things (i once found 3 sun dried pregnant toads - these were skinny as fuck till i pickled them in distilled white vinegar, they soaked it right up and their bellys popped and a ton of frogsborne squelched out into the jar)..

anyway it turns out this was no frog, but a bat-baby. i was a huge fan of batman as a kid, and you know.. bats are pretty bad ass, so i wanted to do all i could to get it set back up again.

there is a whole bunch in the roof space of my house (victorian train station) as it was neer derelict when we bought it to renovate, so i opened up the hatch and put him there (after cleaning off those little red blood sucking beetles that seemed to infest the poor little fucker).

i thought that was that, till about 2am, when i find him back out on the floor, this time inside, in my bathroom!

the little fuckers sonar'ing about the place!!! some of the sonar i guess is out of my hearing range, but i can hear some as squeeks and some as clicks. its pretty nuts.

i could even talk to him/her a bit in sonar. it wasnt even looking my direction, all quiet.. i hit him with the faux-nar and boom, his little mugs all wiggling and pointing dead on me! - after a while i think he figured it out though.

so.. i just put him outside in a little drop box i made for it, in the hope its parents could find it (also heard them flying about outside).. and.. finally he got back to the mothership!!

let this be a lesson to all of you... this little guy is fucking way cooler than any jap denim or ann d penis sling.

put down your steaks! me and bobo gonna convert you to vegetarianism

WOOHOOOOO

[thelion1856]

what? you collect dried or squashed frogs?

[onemancult]

...wait, you didn't pickle it and make a 1 of 1 pickled bat baby necklace for your upcoming lifestyle collection?

[mr fluffernutter]

cutest thing ever, except for the fact that he looks like a spider...

should have made a plaster mold from his living body and cast silver pendants

[Originatek]

thats pretty cute...but yea...you put dead pregnant toads in vinegar,and what was that you said came out of them?....and....did you claim you talked to the baby bat in sonar/fauxnar?

[keagan]

EXHILARATING THREAD TlTLE.

[onemancult]

why is the bat baby covered in specklingings of blood?!? was it hurt?

[ironXcrayon]

^beatles were eating at it duh.

You are batman indeedy highstreet. You need robin tho.

[mr fluffernutter]

those are the blood sucking beetles

[thomas_highstreet]

yeah i should have cast it, but he/she looked pretty fucked up.. and those little beetle things looked so uncomfortable for it..

also, i dont think i could find its nose-holes, nor two miniture straws i could stick in them to let it breath through the plaster.

if i ever find a dead one, ill cast that.. we got a pretty prominant silverwork/jewellery department at my uni actually! that might be my next port of call

[onemancult]

those are the blood sucking beetles

wow.

now i'm terrified of tiny blood sucking beetles.

I swear, I was thinking just the same thing.

Frogs and Bats are host to demon spawn. Beware.

[kiya]

I'm fucking speechless.. This is the most beautiful thread i've seen thus far on this forum..

[red]

just dropping by to say that this thread should be bronzed.

[thomas_highstreet]

thanks chaps.

its the irony of human existence.. we spent thousands of years trying to better any other animal on the planet, yet a little baby bat seems far more special of a creature than any man or woman..

Truer words have not been spoken on these boards. Animals are the purest life forms that I can think of. Humans, however, are basically a virus and the earth is the host; we simply deplete resources and multiply, destoying the planet in our wake. Its really not much more complicated than that. I often wonder what the world looked like before we humans began to leave our mark.

Beautiful thread HighStreet.

[stuntastic]

I find it hilarious that you pickle squished frogs haha...

Good job on bat...

(thought of the moment.)

Guy next to me rubbed his dick across my shoulder as he got up. Great.

Impressive Thomas, kudos to you.

My brother JUST called to tell me he had to put a little gerbil out of its misery who had stolen into the garage and then broke its leg falling off a large crate.

[canice]

if only i could lead as charmed a life as highstreet's.

with our brief meet before, it seems the bats have adopted me as their daywalking keeper.

today i finished work, bazzed out a mean curry, looked behind me and another one of our flying friends was on the floor looking up at me oblivious.

this time not a baby, but a fully grown long eared badboy!!

i took him to the window and used the rug he was on to fashion a launch pad, and after a brief chat (thanks for the finger touching advice Syb) he was collected by some other bats and disapeared off into the night...

[keagan]

Hey, you talk to bats? thats cool though.

This is why meet-ups are helpfull, for both beast and master.

You probably would've never understood syb if he had tried to type that finger tapping thing down.

Cool!

[sybaritical]

No one ever understands me, period.

I think it's the same bat and he just wants Highstreet's number.

[nairb49]

They're probably there to welcome you into their home, first the small fry, and now the big boss.
