I go outside in my backyard to drink beer, whiskey, and chill out on my computer, but butterflies and insects are out. Butterflies fly near me and land on my computer, and it annoys me—I hate it. Is there a way I can kill these butterflies?

    I appreciate the regular content – but if this post history is not a character and is indeed representative of your internal thoughts – dear god.

    IDK where you live, but here we could never be annoyed by butterflies, we actually plant bushes in our garden that attract them.
    If you computer is black butterflies shouldn’t be particularly attracted, if it’s not get one that is.

    Some ideas:

    • Chill out inside
    • Get some frogs (or other butterfly-eaters of your choice) and carry them around at all times
    • Move to a concrete jungle where all annoying natural life has been exterminated

    They have chosen you. You’re clearly the protagonist.

    OK I’m being snarky after just having complained about being snarky elsewhere. Perhaps citronella candles?
