SO REMEMBER HOW MY COWORKER HAD A LIVE TARANTULA SENT TO HER HOUSE??
akatsuki
oh god
→ yard sard
lmfaooo we're horror-laughing now at my office
akatsuki
why
ţħιмƀ£ε σʹƒµςκѕ
what happened now?
→ yard sard
for those who don't know, I'd been told months (a year?) ago to watch the mail, since my coworker's ex has a crazy new wife who sent a live tarantula in a box to her house
→ yard sard
just to terrorize her and her kids
→ yard sard
which is so fucked up on so many levels
sib
i was going to say "i have a live tarantula in my house and it's fine" but now this is scary 
→ yard sard
also, the spider is supposedly alive and living at a nearby museum's bug house, as far as we know
→ yard sard
yeah no. she opened a box with no return address and it was just a very pissed-off tarantula
→ yard sard
this person (her ex and/or his new crazy wife) bought a tarantula, boxed the poor thing up, and sent it to her house
→ yard sard
there is just so much weird scheming and effort behind it, my mind is still boggled over the fact that it really happened
→ yard sard
but yeah, we all foolishly thought that they had gotten it out of their systems and they would stop sending shit in the mail
→ yard sard
given all of the court stuff and restraining orders going on right now
→ yard sard
but I get another email today to watch for packages to my coworker
ţħιмƀ£ε σʹƒµςκѕ
oh lord
→ yard sard
she finally got to come in and tell me what happened this time
→ yard sard
and it's less dramatic and dangerous but still totally surreal to me
→ yard sard
I guess the court ruled that this guy owes her a shit ton more money and his child support has doubled since he makes bank now
→ yard sard
and my coworker is guessing that this is what pissed the wife off again
ţħιмƀ£ε σʹƒµςκѕ
=_=
→ yard sard
so she gets a fancy red envelope sent to the office and it has no return address
→ yard sard
after freaking out for a while, she finally calmed down and opened it while wearing lab gloves and holding it over the sink
→ yard sard
but it was... a fancy romantic... card....
ţħιмƀ£ε σʹƒµςκѕ
good call
ţħιмƀ£ε σʹƒµςκѕ
what
→ yard sard
yeah
→ yard sard
and inside it's all like
→ yard sard
"been thinking about you, lover"
→ yard sard
"can't wait to see you again soooon~~~"
→ yard sard
with no signature
ţħιмƀ£ε σʹƒµςκѕ
ummmmmm
→ yard sard
and we're laughing because
→ yard sard
this coworker is dating another coworker......
→ yard sard
so we're pretty sure
→ yard sard
this is supposed to be, like
→ yard sard
trying to break them up
ţħιмƀ£ε σʹƒµςκѕ
that's so creepy though
→ yard sard
YEAH
→ yard sard
it's like
→ yard sard
half hilariously laughable junior-high-level scheme
→ yard sard
and half fuckin creepy stalker vibes
→ yard sard
right???
→ yard sard
my coworker is just like
→ yard sard
"it was so surreal. I was there and it's still so surreal."
→ yard sard
and this crazy new wife lady
→ yard sard
before all this
→ yard sard
had been spamming my coworker with vicious texts for months
→ yard sard
without my worker having ever responded to her once
→ yard sard
*coworker
Tɪᴇʟ Dᴇᴀʀ
what on earth
→ yard sard
which, I can see someone who engages in bitchy text wars with someone
→ yard sard
but my coworker never responded in any way. and this lady just kept going.
ţħιмƀ£ε σʹƒµςκѕ
i assume all of these things go straight to her lawyer
→ yard sard
yeah, but there's actually not a whole lot that they can legally do with it
→ yard sard
they couldn't even do anything with the spider
Tɪᴇʟ Dᴇᴀʀ
I suppose it's a matter of proof vs. suspicion
→ yard sard
since there was no way to prove it was them
→ yard sard
yeah
→ yard sard
and the spider happened after the court stuff was already beginning, so they couldnt just
→ yard sard
bring this new thing in, for whatever legal reason
euryale ☆
what the fuck
MOVED
what the fuuuck
→ yard sard
yeah
→ yard sard
we're in disbelief
→ yard sard
if someone put this in a movie, it would be too cliched and weird to believe actually happens
ţħιмƀ£ε σʹƒµςκѕ
→ yard sard
also, the handwriting in the card looks pretty girly
→ yard sard
so we're joking about her secret lesbian lovers
크맀이⇒ᴋʀɪssʏ
oh god she's still dealing with the crazy bitch
→ yard sard
yeah
→ yard sard
we all foolishly thought it was over
killer drǝɐm ⚡
oh my gods fjksdl
→ yard sard
I wish hiring someone to compare handwriting wasn't such a costly and complicated thing
→ yard sard
because this violates the restraining order
→ yard sard
but only if they could prove it
Yale Sale →
jeeeez I can't believe that's still happening
Yale Sale →
who has this much time and money and bitter loathing to commit to this
куяσиαє
omg....
куяσиαє
Though...I'm so glad to hear the spider is okay. I don't think I ever heard how that resolved
→ yard sard
yeah, it took us a while to find out what happened, since she went on leave for a little while afterward ghfdjk
куяσиαє
understandable
Kari
ngl when you said red envelope my first thought was Howler
→ yard sard
I dont know what that is but it sounds scary

Good sweet Mike. (Facepalm) Seriously, though, this sounds like it came out of a bad Lifetime rom com.
→ yard sard
right??
→ yard sard
I was saying this lady got her scheming skills from a bad movie
→ yard sard
or like... kids cartoon
Kari
howlers are angry letters in HP that scream their contents at you XD
→ yard sard
GFDhjk
→ yard sard
sounds about right
𝓟𝓢𝓛☕📔𝓟𝓻𝓲𝓷𝓬𝓮𝓼𝓼
ron gets a howler.
𝓟𝓢𝓛☕📔𝓟𝓻𝓲𝓷𝓬𝓮𝓼𝓼
... You know, I once read an idea that muggleborn students' siblings might send TV spoilers in Howlers.
→ yard sard
CRUEL
크맀이⇒ᴋʀɪssʏ
WOW OMG
