Bug Hunting

[ladysbaby]

Omg have a Fault in Our Stars poster. I want!

[jhkast]

Looked up from this video to find a daddy long legs on my wall. He was met with extreme prejudice from my sneaker.

[tallatstarbucks]

@jhkast GOOD.

[MrLuc91]

Awesome channel, Instant subscribe, Keep it coming.

Best wishes!

[tallatstarbucks]

@MrLuc91 Thank you so much!!!

Bug killing; the one job I have at home that makes me feel indispensable. Wife and daughter (and son) depend on me for this.

[darkilustrisimus]

..I like bugs



[rossexton]

Avoiding tall-grass areas? You'd make a terrible pokemon trainer :-P

[tallatstarbucks]

@rossexton Yupp. I would just stick with my starter. And we'd be best friends.

[SonsofAdmiralettes]

I have an irational fear of bugs!! It's horrible in the summer here because they are EVERYWHERE!!

[Perin090]

I have a designated spider-killing boot...and also hide on the internet. It's safer here.

[BlunanaNana]

Remember, everytime you don't kill a bug, it has a chance to pass on positive traits to its offspring, thus creating a super-advanced breed of insectoid killing machine.

[SmallxAmerika]

stop all the damn hand motions

[theleprechaunninja]

You are the queen of scheduling

[JustAnotherJake7]

My techniques:

1.) Squash bug with hard object. (cane, boot, pot, book)

2.) Drop heavy object upon bug. (Books mostly)

3.) Chemicals. Spray bug with air freshener or glass cleaner until movement stops, then proceed with technique 1 or 2 to ensure death.

4.) Catch bug in cup. Squash cup. (repeat squashing if necessary)

5.) Release the hounds. (my dogs love bugs)

[tallatstarbucks]

@JustAnotherJake7 You are INTENSE!

[JustAnotherJake7]

@tallatstarbucks Baby, I know

[sincemarchoflastyear]

Haha I'm so not a bug person either :D Awesome video Jessie!

[tallatstarbucks]

@sincemarchoflastyear Thank you!

[bridgetisadreamer]

I always do that with spiders! I'm not usually afraid of insects but when spiders move... *shudders* But when I do put something over it, I put a piece of paper under it and take the spider outside to save it :) And when all else fails I squeal and get my big brother to save me with our vacuum :) I like how you're so honest

[unophishal]

I TOTALLY understand labeling the cup. I've trapped bugs like that, forgot they were under the cup, and screamed upon carelessly picking up said cup

[DreamerRealist]

My parents are reaching the point where they get annoyed when I ask them to kill spiders for me. I don't know what I'm going to do.

[dc8r17]

How many bugs were harmed during the making of this video? I see no disclaimer? And perfectly understandable of a fear of bugs, I have a slight fear of a Bug...that's legitimately someone's nickname I know of.

[tallatstarbucks]

@dc8r17 0!

I can understand being afraid of someone named Bug.

[bigmouthnotatall]

[PandaScribbles]

YOUR SO AWESOME.

[AccioCrayola]

Don't worry - I'm irrationally afriad of moths. Moths are like the bug least likely to hurt you in any way, but they just freak me out - really, really bad. I trained my dog to kill them, so now I'm safe :3 BTW, you are a) really pretty, b) have great taste in musicals & books and c) have really awesome scheduling skills. :D

[tallatstarbucks]

@AccioCrayola MOTHS ARE TERRIFYING.

a) Thank you! b) Thank you! c) Thank you! :D

[PolesitterPictures]

THERE'S SOMEBODY WHO'S JUST AS AFRAID OF BUGS AS I AM!!!!

Dunno if that's a good thing or a bad thing...

But, in any case, my bug phobia is so bad that I can't watch certain parts of Indiana Jones & the Temple of Doom... or I scream. Loudly. Especially when Willie turns over her hand to find a particularly gnarly-looking creature. Uuuugh, just gave myself the shivers...

[tallatstarbucks]

@PolesitterPictures Me tooooo. Spider scene in Chamber of Secrets? I have to leave the room.

[PolesitterPictures]

@tallatstarbucks Naw, in Chamber of Secrets, I just cover my eyes with my hands and peek out between the spaces in my fingers. My family (or whoever I'm watching it with) is often very amused by this. -_- IT'S NOT FUNNY. This is GENUINE FEAR.

[LoudIndoorVoice]

I put them under a glass then slide a bit of paper under them. then I leave a note asking one of my parents to kill them :)

[tallatstarbucks]

@LoudIndoorVoice More proof that we are twins.

[Gvf77x]

I feel the same way about cockroaches. They're horrible, I try the shoe thing but all I could manage was throwing a shoe at it only to scare it and have it scurry to an unknown place in my room >_<

[tallatstarbucks]

@Gvf77x OH MY GOD I WOULD HAVE NEVER GONE IN THE ROOM AGAIN

[aquatius5]

You'd make a terrible Buddhist. But perhaps a good long-distance bug collector.

[TheThunderDragoon]

I'm a bug? AHHHHHHH!!!!!

[alliebluedevil]

LOVE this video... Reminds me of when we'd trap bugs under Pringles cans at camp...

[tallatstarbucks]

@alliebluedevil Thanks!

Ohhhhh man. Memories. Remember when Tori (I think it was Tori...could have been Sophie...) wrote that song about the fly on the wall?

[notallducksquack]

OK. Weirdest thing, my most recent vlog that I've made on my channel was about my irrational fear of bugs! (I am guilty of putting cups on bugs aswell)

[lizlikestolaugh]

This is totally great and I agree with everything you said. I. Hate. Bugs. (Especially big spiders. *shivers*)

[jlovesc21]

You are the cutest thing ever.

[kaysyconundrum]

i love the post-it notes! that's such funny way to solve the situation hahaha

I'm always the one among my friends that takes the bugs outside. I don't like touching things like spiders but as long as we both leave each other alone we get along pretty well.

[tallatstarbucks]

@kaysyconundrum Yeah. I'm okay with them when they are in places that aren't my room. But when they are, I worry that they'll crawl into my bed while I'm sleeping and this is a thought I cannot deal with.

[BleahPerson]

1 pm? You lucky person! I'm jealous. Also, adorable, irrational Jessie is adorable. :D

[tallatstarbucks]

@BleahPerson Awww, shucks. <3

[teganbowiefreak]

Did you just call us bugs? I AM OFFENDED!!

[tallatstarbucks]

@teganbowiefreak I'm sorry! I just need a way to end the video! I LOVE YOU; I PROMISE!

[TheMinuteVlog]

I avoid tall grassy areas because I don't have a Pokémon to protect myself.

[tallatstarbucks]

@TheMinuteVlog I like you.

[TheMinuteVlog]

@tallatstarbucks Good thing, too. We're getting married.

[DH1390]

@TheMinuteVlog Plus, I'm sure before you got out there, Professor Oak would tell you how dangerous it is to be out in the wild and take you to his lab and give you a Pokemon.

[flightwithtools]

I have stink bugs at my house... They make an audible and feelable crunching sound when you kill them. I cannot kill them because of that.

[tallatstarbucks]

@flightwithtools Yeeechhhh!

[thisfunkylittledino]

I'm the kid, who when everyone else is freaking out and trying to kill it, picks the spider up and place it outside.... yeah. That happens.

BUT!

When I'm home alone I generally kill them, because I don't want to find one in my bed :P

[tallatstarbucks]

@thisfunkylittledino Oh my goooood that would be the worst. I don't think I would ever be able to sleep in my bed again if I found a bug in it.

[owchihurtmyself]

holy crap i thought i was the only one who had such an irrational fear of bugs.

I'M NOT ALONE

[dreamingofreality3]

Oh my god you're a genius! I'm going to have to start post-it noting my bug cups.

[wordnerd1231]

TFIOS TOURRR!! 

[unchico555]

Oh girl... I love you

[MaggieSerendipity]

OHMYGOD YOU WENT TO THE TFIOS TOUR!!! I... I'm jealous.

[tallatstarbucks]

@MaggieSerendipity It was awesome.

[Witified]

AHH, xD THE ADORABLENESS KEEPS GOIN. It's ok, I don't like bugs either. Except for lady bugs and fireflies :3

[tallatstarbucks]

@Witified I LOVE YOU.

I can deal with lady bugs and fireflies...from a distance. And when they're outside.

[neondreamscollide]

I'm using the sticky-note idea next time.

...

Please let there not be a next time.

[myinnernerd]

I think I might try your sticky-note strategy ;)

[Jordishness]

Wow you really are the queen of scheduling. How dd you manage that wonderfulness!?!

[tallatstarbucks]

@Jordishness With getting lucky with when my required courses were scheduled and refusing to take early classes.

[Mykemyday]

Oh god, I caught an earwig one night under my hair gel, completely forgot about it until the hairstyling session the next day. I could've done with the post-it system.

[TimH078]

Bugs and spiders scare me shitless so I'm the worst "manly man" ever :p I'm the first to jump on a chair and say "KILL IT! KILL IT!"

[tallatstarbucks]

@TimH078 ME TOO. And I refuse to come down from the chair until it is gone.

[LegendEntertainment1]

My mom uses a vacuum to kill flies and spiders XD

[NangilimaDreams]

@LegendEntertainment1 me, too I use it too kill these big, black spiders - Once I throw a big book at a spider and it could rescue itself under my bed! I didn't sleep the whole night until my dad came around to kill it. #I'm a girl I'm allowed to do so

[TimH078]

Bugs and spiders scare me shitless. I'm the worst "manly man" ever

[leggsXinXaXtopXhat]

i don't use the cup method because the last time i tried that the bug escaped.

it was the most terrifying moment of my life to see the cup out of the corner of my eye move on it's own as the bug lifter it and walked out.

i didn't know they could do that! clearly they are evolving and i force myself to kill them if at all possible. some times it is not possible and once i had to move bedrooms because i saw a spider. never looked back.

[tallatstarbucks]

@leggsXinXaXtopXhat I generally trap them and then go sleep somewhere else because I'm afraid of them escaping. At home, I usually go sleep on the couch in the living room.

[leggsXinXaXtopXhat]

@tallatstarbucks if you put a book or something on the cup they are less likely to escape but it is best to leave the area for safety.

[defense360]

At 3 in the morning last summer, my sister and I were up late watching Friends....suddenly, we saw a roach on THE WALL. We proceeded to throw a shoe at it. Then, it started to FLY! A flying roach at the 3 in the morning is not a good situation!

Also, you are always awesome :)

[tallatstarbucks]

@defense360 OH MY GOD I WOULD HAVE CRIED AND SCREAMED

Awwww, thank you!!!
