Selling an exotic, potentially lethal, scorpion...

[anarchir]

nobody impresses a girl by bringing an iguana to the dog park and saying, "wanna feed it a hamster?"  "wanna fucking watch it do battle with my scorpion?"

Good way to get a guy though I bet.

Oh, absolutely.  Guys are over the moon about pets that a) eat other pets, or b) can be eaten, or c) both.   Which is why I want chickens.  They eat snakes, frogs, spiders....

(Okay, it's not really why.  But it's a nice perk)

How much for the little girl? The women, how much for the women?

Your women, I want to buy your women. The little girl. Your daughters. Sell them to me. Sell me your children.

More than you have.

You think you can say that just because you have a big dick, don't you?

I am in Kuwait, and there are fat-tailed black scorpions running around here everywhere.

I have caught one and keep it in my office. I have been toying with the idea of bringing it back to the states and selling it.

First of all, since this is the second most venomous scorpion in the world, what are your views about bringing it back? What if someone buys it, brings it home and is stung and dies? What if, in fact, my customer's child is killed? Am I to blame, in your view?

Secondly, how much would YOU pay for such an animal?

are you a fucking idiot? 

If I was a fucking idiot, would I know it?

You should know.  Everyone keeps calling you an idiot

I am sure you could find an exotic critter dealer that might give you a decent amount of money for them as long as you get them through customs, If you want to cut out the middle man maybe you should go to an exotic pet forum and see what actual owners have to say.
If your customer ran over his kid with a car would the car salesman be to blame? People die in car accidents all the time do you think every care salesmen out there is filled with a murderers guilt?

Then I must not be an idiot.

You should do it if you think you can sell it down the line.  I think if you are gonna do it, at least you should scoop up several for the trip (but keep them separate).

My gal says no, cuz she thinks you are going to kill somebody.

Well, I decided not to for a few reasons:

1. Though some people here missed the sarcasm, I am not interested in paying a $70K (or whatever it is) fine for illegally importing a wild animal.
2. I had a dream (or rather, a nightmare) that I woke up, the jar was open and the killer scorpion was loose in my room somewhere.
3. I couldn't find a buyer on such short notice, even if I was interested in risking the crazy-ass fine.
