I had a good laugh today while i was working on my new website for selling mantids.

I decided i would start it now so it would be ready by the time i actually have the mantids and the rest of my supplies, so i was working on it for about an hour until my mother walked in and heres how it went:

mom- "watcha been doing in here all night?"

me- "working on my website"

mom- "website for what?"

me- "my mantids"

mom- "you cant sell mantids! you need a buisness licsence!"

me- "mom, you dont need i licsence to sell something that's illigal!"

mom- "illigal?!"

gotta love the old lady sometimes.

 
its probably not as funny second hand, but it was hilarious at the moment, also, you kinda gotta know my mom to see the humor. Shes a little outta the loop.

 
let's face it. it was bad enough that you like bugs enough to want then in your room, but now you just told your mom your a fellon.

I bet she looked like this.... :eek:

Seems everybody is starting a business to sell mantids.

Thats exactly how she looked :p She wasnt too impressed by the bugs at first, now shes going nuts!

 
LMAO!

Gotta love it when you give people "Holy Macrel! WHATAREYOUTALKINGABOUT?!?" panic.

Oh, I don't need to know your Mom....I can just imagine.

 
Sweet! if you start a business and order some exotics I won't have to risk getting caught ;)

I was going to start a little business on the side so I can have exotics and cool mantids for myself but looks like a fellow vancouveran has beat me to it :p

Show me the site when you're done.

AND GET A HOLD OF IDOLO'S !

 
According to established Federal laws, which prevent ownership and all the other activities that start with ownership of Mantids, we cannot lawfully have non-indigenous mantids, phasmids, and many other things that are deemed worthy of acquiring. There is reason for this madness, but really a debate or even a discussion about the legality of the sale of mantids, is cut short by the fact that we are in violation of the laws of the land, if we have, breed, trade, sell. mail, or even gift mantids other than the wonderful natives or otherwise lawful species, of over a score in number starting with the Chinese, Carolina, and European (religiosa). Write to me in jail.
