Even MORE Proof God is a Practical Joker

It's finally gotten warmer outside, and we all know what comes with warm weather: spiders. Yep, that's right. In case you haven't noticed, every season has something rather sinister about it. Fall comes with hours spent raking leaves, winter results in bitter cold, spring has allergies, and summer has spiders. It's bad enough just knowing that they're outside with their long hairy legs (considering that description, I guess I should be scared of my dad as well), but add to that that for some reason, they decide that your toes look rather scrumptious as they race towards your feet during that split second you open the door to let the dog go potty before bed.

Oftentimes, you won't see them sneak by your feet into your house. Until the middle of the night that is, when you see a shadow scutter across your ceiling, and wake up to a scene like this:

1. New shirt/pants stickers - Just how many do we need? I peel off 4, and there's 2 more I'll find later that week. It's almost guaranteed that every time I wear new clothes, no matter how good I check them, somewhere (usually my hindquarters) there'll be a sticker advertising my waist size to the world.

2. Camera flash - You know those times when you see someone at the store that looks just like your friend? You decide to sneak a picture, only to discover your flash is on. Don't act like I'm weird, you know you've done it. Need an example? Here.

3. Facebook uploads - Have you noticed half of them are pictures your friend posted of you unaware, mid-chew on a hamburger?

4. Change - What you don't have at the toll both, but all you have when you run out of gas.

5. Spiders love dark, moist places - Good thing we tend to open our mouths when we sleep, huh?

6. Public sneezing - Typically while sitting in a claustrophobic room surrounded by people you don't know. I've found it's best to put your head as close to your shoes as possible, sneeze all over your socks, and then give a dirty look when the people in front of you disgustedly turn around.

7.You have to wear jeans to weed-eat - Unless, of course, you like getting the opportunity to pick gravel out of your shins. Did I mention that there's going to be a heat index of 105 while you're doing this fun character building activity?

8. Boogers - one of God's many ways of keeping your pride in check.

9. Getting hit by a bee the size of a small bird when you stick your hand out the car window - Yes, I've been there.

10. Failed magic tricks - Every small child goes through a phase where they are infatuated with magic. They sometimes go so far as to learn a few card tricks of their own. They'll spend hours practicing so that they can impress their friends. Finally the moment comes, the trick has been perfected, and the friends and family are ready. And the trick fails. Horribly. Leaving a frustrated and humiliated little kid standing there in front of those they want to impress the most. I only have one explanation for moments like these.

These are just a few things I have on my list that I'll share at the moment, and rest assured, there are many more. Until then, enjoy this small list above (and maybe these ones too!), and remain aware, as a practical joker loves to strike when least expected.
