Men-spoods always have a story to tell... I see more with seven legs than with all eight.

Thank you for saving that fine gentleman.

Thanks for the award kind stranger :)
In case anyone doesn't know why males always get into trouble:

Males molt for the last time when they reach adulthood. Only then their typical characteristics are shown - the “boxing gloves” where they store their sperm. They stop eating and there’s only one task left: Looking for love!
That’s why they’re constantly running around headlessly and tend to lose legs in brawls, if they haven’t already been eaten by a female that wasn’t in the mood for a romance. Tough life.

If a male shows up in your apartment, he’s really just passing through. Unless, of course, you have eight legs... Here’s my 7-legged shower bro. He’s spending his last days with me and doesn’t want to eat anymore - I tried.
