You see, the problem is not really the possum in your bathroom. The problem is that you don't own a computer and/or a sub 100$ camera.

I have a computer, but it's the same on I've had since college. Look, it's just I have a fear of credit cards. I already know two people who have declared bankruptcy and all my friends have bad credit. As far as the camera thing, I haven't bought one because my office has about 8 and I spend most of my time at work. All my pictures and shit are on my work PC.

Bring the possum to work and snap a pic there.

Okay, if it's still here tommorow I'll take a picture and post it. I just might need some help on how to do it. If it's not here what can I take a pic of to show I'm not lying. I honestly still have Windows ME on my home PC.

I wouldn't trust your cat.

The same thing happened in my house a few years ago. The cats told it where the bowl of food was and all four of them (including the opossum) feasted on Meow Mix.

I took a bucket and broom, pushed the little guy into the bucket, and brought the bucket outside to free him.

Then you have to find another possum and take a picture of him instead.

We demand results.

Oh god it's still in here. I just checked behind my bed and it's there. Okay, here's the deal. I'm going to block all possible exits. It's 20 minutes to 5 a.m. where I live. I will go into work later today and grab a camera. I'll take a photo, go back to the office and download it to my work PC. I could even buy a newspaper with the date and put it by the possum. I'll just need help on how to post it on GAF.

The only thing I ask is that you let me sleep for a few hours.

I'M NOT FUCKING KIDDING. The only thing I use my home PC for is my router because I fucked up a few years ago and got my PC infected with a trojan spyware thing while trying to download porn. My fucking keyboard doesn't work, but, like I said I spend of my time on my work PC.

That’s not enough! We demand a spectacled possum in a robe reading the paper in his luxurious study, complete with fire. Rough estimate the study will have to be 1/8 scale. And the front page must read “Yankees Win!!!” with today’s date.



OTHERWISE YOU ARE A LIAR

You're testing our patience but I'm willing to give you a few hours to prepare if that means we will be seeing pictures of this possum.

Don't disappoint.

Look, I can't drive right now. But I'll stay awake if need be. The earliest I can go into work would be 9 a.m., exactly four hours from now. I'll check in every half hour if need be. We have to sign out cameras when we take them. I know I can get you a photo of the possum next to a newspaper for the proof of life. I'll even take a pic of my shitty PC running Windows ME, but I'm going to need some help on how to post the pics.

Find a female possum, breed with it, and within a few generations your differences will be forgotten.

I hope he's a big one, and that you've named him 'Bitey'

edit - ah... beaten like a red-headed step-child...

Okay, I'll check back in at probably 0930 hours. I may need someone for tech support while I'm trying to upload the proof of life photos.

Possum seems like a normal type of animal to me, so you'll want to use fighting attacks, maybe some low kicks or a seismic toss. It might be psychic though, then you'll want to bite it or throw some sucker punches. Then when you think you've almost knocked it out, throw a ball at it and wait for a clicking sound.

Crazy that the weirdest part of this thread isn't the possum in his apartment, but the fact that he's posting on a Wii, has an unusable computer, getting a camera from work, etc. Insanity! Also, what the hell is an opossum?

Find a stick, kick the door open and beat the silly thing to death. If that doesn't work, you have two options:

1. Beat it harder.
2. Get a bigger stick.

There are so many astonishing little details in this thread, it's really amazing.
OP, keep up the good work! The idea to make pics is very promising.

(Windows ME is some sort of climax in this story yet.)

I can't. God, this is embarassing, but I don't even own a digital camera. (I also don't know how to post pictures) I'm actually posting from my Wii. Fuck this is embarassing, because I'm really, really, really not tech savy.

No, no no, I will not selectively bold parts of this post and insert "lol" smileys. No, I will not do this.

fake edit: omg Windows ME


Good luck, OP, I'm rooting for you to win. I always cheer for the humans.

If you want it to gone you could try feeding it baking soda. IIRC enough of the stuff will kill the thing, not very humane though. You should mix it with flour and whatever scent attracts the critters.

Put on lots of clothing like heaps of sweaters and jumpers and shit and run at it screaming and hit it with the sleeves of the clothing and scream a lot so it knows to run away or attack you but if it attacks you you're already screaming so you don't have much to worry about and leave a basket at the door so it gets trapped in it and then kick it once it's in the basket and then throw the basket outside.

The fuck? ME rocked!

Also, I don't have anything meaningful to add the opossum discussion except: What have you smoked, OP?
