My husband was worried about bringing me to his apartment for the first time when we were dating because it was filled with tarantulas, scorpions, and snakes. Did not bother me in the slightest and I really got into keeping them too. I did put my foot down on centipedes though because fuck that (too fast, too hot).

Thats scolopenders right. Are there venomous centipedes?

They’ve got toxicognaths to shoot you full of venom with.

That dude is way too happy in that video. But that's pretty close to the same pitch my husband gave me.

Y’all have vinegaroons? I kept one for a while. They’re amazing to “terrorize” children with.

We did have one for a bit. We did a whole arboreal tank set up and even got it to molt twice. They are amazing to watch.

Oops I was wrong we had a whip scorpion not a vinegroon. Husband just corrected me.
