OMG I'm laughing because I had this really hillarious experience like last week....
I found this beatle thing in my room and I wanted to kill it, but it kept running away and going up the wall, so I had to stand on top of my hamper and try to kill it with my notebook... I was terrified I didn't know if that thing bites or anything soo the way I was hitting it was funny XD

It was like I was hitting by not looking at the same time and also hitting like a total sissy ^///^

But yeah at the end I managed to kill it and I almost fell from my hamper but it was killed 8D

(I don't really like bugs... except for butterflies... their cute... and bees because the make the honey ^__^ and ladybugs... I like those too)

They sneak into the house by who knows what method... ._. I'm afraid they'll crawl into my bed (which one did before).

They may be cute in pairs, but when they're in your house in the THOUSANDS they're a pest!

They are indeed...or rather, a mob of pests.

They're especially pest-y when they start crawling into your room, realize, "Wait, we can't crawl very far on carpet! Oh, s-" and then get stuck there and die.

And then you have to pick them up or vacuum them.

You made me laugh a little too loudly.  Now Melody (one of my sisters) is staring at me as if I am crazy.  But I do like a few insects.  I like the Praying Mantis...I mean, who would not want scythe-esque hands that could chop up prey?  ...At least, I think that is why they have those...

Is that why they have those arms? I thought they just had those for decoration. xD

I'm afraid of most insects and bugs, but I find myself releasing them outside all the time.

Before the screen was put up for the summertiems, I scooped up ladybugs and let them out the window. Now I have to scoop them up and run all the way downstairs, put on shoes, and let it crawl into the rocks outside.

Ladybugs are cute. =3
And I love rolypolies. ^ ^;

Other bugs I'm not so crazy about...

ESPECIALLY the potato bug. X x;

(Warning to people are deathly afraid of bugs... look at your own risk. Potato bugs are kinda scary looking... like mutated ants. o o; -shrug-)

Spoiler


Yeah... we used to find those things in California all the time. >>;

Wow.  That bug looks like the obese offspring of a drunken queen bee and a giant ant.  And it looks like the size of a mouse...I think.

I saw one when I was younger... we caught it and put it in a bottle to stare at it 'cause we thought it was some mutated queen ant or something. X3

Close enough. Uh-oh, with climates changing I might see one of those some day.

The black widow has already been starting to show up here.

We had black widows in California too...
My goodness, everything ugly was in California.
Potato bugs, black widows, diamondbacks... o o;
I bet all of Los Angeles' smog attracted it all. XP

Black Widow?  Be careful with those.  I know that those spiders are extremely poisonous...and they were featured in a computer game, actually.  King's Quest VI, if I remember correctly.  One bite killed Prince Alexander within seconds, which might have been an exaggeration...Although it was funny to see a Black Widow being seductive to the main character...

For the sake of being uncensored, I will call them "roaches".  Those roaches can survive without their heads for a few days, correct?  ...Or was it a few weeks...?  Whatever.  They can last without their head for a while...I know that much.

Anyway...behold!

Spoiler


All hail the Praying Mantis in all of its glory!  This one looks somewhat cute, actually.

Praying mantises (mantii?) are definitely intriguing little buggers.

I used to catch them and put them in a special bug cage when I was little!

They died within the month. D:

Aww.  Within the month?  In a special bug cage?  That is saddening.  They are pretty cute when they stare at you...not that there are any in my area.  I just like to see them on the television or on the internet.  Good times...

...I had a weird daydream of a Praying Mantis chasing after its prey...

Mantis:  [Watching prey scuttle on by...]
Prey:  Lalala~!
Mantis:  RAWR.
Prey:  Aieeee!
[Benny Hill Theme plays as the Praying Mantis chases its prey...]
[After the main theme finishes, the Praying Mantis grabs its victim...]
Mantis:  I gots you now, my pretty!
Prey:  OHNOES.

...

Wow, I have a messed up imagination.

xD That made me lawl. Lawl.

It wasn't really a special bug cage, it was just a cage that could hold bugs and all. With air holes and a door and you could let it out D: but it just stayed there and died.

I'm just going to observe bugs from afar now.

ZOMFGWTFBBQ POTATO BUG. DX

Praying Mantis=cute, but keep the real ones the f**k away from me. DX I'm scared of everything. DX Including Techfan's Gay Deadly Butterfly. *is chased* NOOO HE BE STEALN MAH ENERGY

When praying mantiseseseseseseses do it, the female rips the male's head off. That's the only way he can. O_o Can you imagine ripping your guy's head off to uh... fornicate?

Guy: I really don't want to do this. I'd like to live a little longer.
Girl: Too bad. *chop*
Stuff: *ting!*

*cough* Uh huh. Anyhoo... Natynicky, we have plenty. >_> Come take ours.

Carpenter bees keep getting stuck in the screen of the outside door on the back porch. DX Those things are freakin' HUGE. Nanny has to kill them or I won't go on the porch. And BTW, that's where the trashcan is. They wouldn't get in if the handyman (who's like 60) had put the screen on right...

It's sad really... an 82 year old woman saving her 19 year old granddaughter from bugs. D:

The would include consuming your mate's head as well.  Heh.  Hey, do you want fries with the head of your mate?  Mmm...crunchy and juicy...it works.  Heh heh...
