Comment on British plugs

At least chestnuts have the decency to be really localized and large, despite being spikey balls of evil. These little fuckers are miniature, everywhere, and can hide in carpet for a solid six months before you notice them the one time you decide to go barefoot.
I’m so glad we don’t have these where I live.

I think you’re thinking of sand burrs. Which I’m pretty sure are different, but also fucking nasty plants. They end up in our poor dogs’ paws late summer/early fall. If I could eliminate any plant. That one.

Lovely, I’m glad there’s more than one of these hellplants.
