Holy shit.

Hey, Sweets. A couple weeks back, I had a bit of a fly problem myself because I didn't notice there was a hole in the screen of my window, and when I went to check there were literally dozens of flies and other types of bugs on my window, which was particularly concerning for me because my bed is literally right next to my window.

Y'know what I did about it?

Cost about $10. Picked it up at the Target about a five minute's walk away from my apartment. You're welcome.

Well, he wrote that he couldn't stand smelly sprays, so clearly, it's far better that his mom pays more in electric bills and the mosquito problem remain unfixed than for him to spray and leave the room for a while.
 
I have trouble believing that the smell of bug spray bothers him so badly when said room is full of ancient dusty webs, mold, jars of his own piss, and decades of accumulated stale farts. Also, I figure the mosquitoes are getting into his room because of the decayed pile of wood and drywall he calls a bedroom wall. Why not just seal it up? He doesn't even have to fix it properly, just staple a damn tarp over the hole so they can't get in. That would probably cut their numbers significantly.

As for light bulbs, I can say with absolute certainty that their "weaker light" is negligible in a normal room in a normal house. When it comes to heat, older bulbs don't give off that much. You can also try candles, and before you whine about them being a fire hazard, you can put them out when you leave a room or before you go to sleep. Humanity managed it for thousands of years before the advent of electric lighting. It's not hard.

There's so much more to rip into, but I can only tolerate Icky's brain diarrhea in small bursts, like working with radioactive materials.
 
He could always turn out his lights and hold up a lighter, bugs are naturally drawn to light like that so they would fly into the lighter and basically incinerate themselves. It's not pretty, but it's effective.
Alternatively, he could have, you know, taken measures to ensure that his house didn't decay into such a shithole.

Besides questions of mercury levels in the CFLs (because no one can seem to quite agree on how much is toxic) and the danger they may present if broken, the level of light they give off is pitiful in comparison to incandescent lights. I'm told that the low levels of illumination you see in my room may be contributing to my gradually worsening eyesight- -well, that's why. Our government won't allow us real light bulbs because of piddling "environmental concerns".

It's impossible to understand how someone can be this freakin' stupid.

A 30-watt CFL or a 15-watt LED will produce about 1,600 lumens, the same "level of light" that is "given off" by a 100-watt incandescent bulb. Exact same amount of light; less energy used to produce it. He can buy CFL, LED (no mercury!) or halogen (no mercury!) lights that will produce whatever amount of light is deemed necessary and appropriate by the laws and customs of the Mold Kingdom. If he wanted to, he could by a 180-watt CFL that would emit light in the daylight spectrum -- loved by artists, one of whom he is not -- at the same blindingly bright lumens rating as a 600-watt incandescent. A child of below-average intelligence could figure all of this out in a matter of seconds.

If I didn't know better, I'd think Sweet was having us on.

This is so unfair. I would bet some serious money that hundreds, if not thousands, of those farts are disturbingly recent, briskly refreshing and anything but stale.

Sweet could have a symptom of the 'tism in that while he's used to all those wretched odors, the "new" odor of bug spray may cause a sensory overload, hence why he can't use it.

Also, with all those gases in there, who knows if lighting a candle could set off an explosion?

I was just going to mention those. The price is really coming down. Then again, we're talking about someone who's a little behind the times here. Buck Rogers bulbs may not be available at the "newsstand" in Blytheville yet.

Also, I'm the first to tell Sweet that halogen bulbs can explode. CFLs can catch on fire. LEDs are the safest new lighting technology.

Okay but Sweetums that doesn't explain why you don't clean the cobwebs from your walls.

Yea, fuck that disgusting excuse he tried to give about leaving up the "spiderwebs" to kill the mosquitoes. Those things aren't catching anything more than his DNA at this point.

Its such a mixed blessing that he is such a shut in. It would be a positive experience if he actually went out into the world and saw how other people lived. He would eventually realize how insane his ideas really are, and that he is the only one who thinks like that. The negative of that being someone would have to put up with having Sweet in their home though.

His time at ASU and the fact he was utterly oblivious to how much people hated him disagrees with this hypothesis.

His recent ravings about "The System" makes me lean toward the theory that it's basically Sweetian shorthand for "nobody liked me much at college", and he presents his being shunned by everyone he went to college with as a triumph of him refusing to buckle to the demands of Liberal mind-control.

Oh, he actually thinks that? :lol:
I can almost guarantee those webs belong to spiders in the family Pholcidae, which make "messy, irregular, tangled webs" that have no actual adhesive properties to trap insects. (Bugs can still get caught in 'em, but...)
Also, they generally hunt other spiders.
Even the spiders in his house are doing more for it than he is. SMH.
 
That one Belch Dimension comic cover where a very hairy Sweet is scaring kids away may be based on a true story?

Every Halloween for quite some time now, Jon likes to put on this getup and greet the kids a the door.
