Worst Insect

[CrazyHarij]

Makes you wonder how smart the huge prehistoric ones would have been, eh?

I bet they were all MiT material! :thumbs:

Raptor sized smart spider > Velociraptor

That would be a cool CG scene.

 

[Brian Damage]

I wonder if a sufficiently large spider would be sapient?

And you're right, it would be cool in CG.

Hey, that gives me an idea for a character in my mod...

Well, most small spiders are sapient. They have limited vision though so they have to constantly scan their surroundings.

I never knew the house centipedes could bite. Thanks a lot. now I'm gonna be a lot more cautious when seeing them.

 

[Razor]

I wish i had never read this thread, i'm going to have nightmares now about maggots crawling out my arse.

I used to live in Brunei though and the Giant Millipedes were evil looking...very nasty things.

At least millipedes are harmless, as opposed to giant centipedes. God, I wish I lived where some of you guys do. :x

Erm, are you sure you know what "Sapient" means?

'cos if most small spiders are sapient, that's the last time I shower without clothes on... there's loads of the buggers near the roof in there, the little pervs...

 

[SnowBall]

I'm a sick individual when it comes to giant locusts. Now that I have airsoft guns, they make rather nice target practice. I hate those things so much.

Well, one definition of sapient means having sagacity, and that means to perceive keenly.

 

[Brian Damage]

That's another thing we used to get back in the Pilbara, big six-inch grasshoppers. Do yours have big spikes on their legs, SnowBall?

[EDIT]: "Sapient" is usually taken to mean "At least as self aware and self concious as a Human being". I think you were thinking about "Sentient".

Hence the name "Homo Sapiens". I suggest you read the book "Little Fuzzy" if you want a good (but long) definition...

 

[Bio]

Bot fly.

[Janet Reno]

There aren't many bugs you need to worry about here...

 

[Stigmata]

I absolutely hate.... well, pretty much every insect, arachnid, mite, maggot, and all other invertebrate in the world.

I saw either a house centipede or a silverfish on my basement wall a week ago. Scared the shite out of me, it crawled out from under the freezer when I opened it and went straight for my foot. Needless to say I screeched like a schoolgirl and ran upstairs until I got a flashlight (even though the basement is very well-lighted) and a big shoe.

I think my cat ate it though. Hopefully he eats all the bugs that arrive in my basement.

 

[Janet Reno]

Cats do well at keeping the bug population indoors down

The other day a fly flew in an open door for about one second only to get caught mid-air and eaten.

You guys know the little boxes of candy called Junior Mints? I found one box was full of crumbs of the chocolate shell, so I poured it out on the counter, and there amongst the candy was a maggot, inching along. A few weeks later, I had another box (from the same batch, bad idea) and I popped one in my mouth. The piece seemed to have a big hole in the bottom, I looked the box, and found more crumbs. So I go over to the counter, spit out the candy (which I hadn't chewed yet fortunately) and poured out the candy, and surely enough, another maggot. It was dead at least, and that batch of Junior Mint boxes was DUMPED!

 

[Brian Damage]

Heh, we found a shitload of little grubs and beetles in an old box of weetbix that we had...

That's like when I found ants in my rice crispies, after I had poured the milk.

Whats the worst bug thats like ever annoyed you, bitten you, caused you to goto the hospital.

Well this one time early early Thanksgiving morning I wokeup and my ear felt wierd like something was crawling back and forth in there. So I told my parents and they said it was sinus. Well 30 minutes later my ear started making wierd noises and I started to freak out so my dad took me to the hospital. The noise was soooo annoying omg omg omgomg I just felt like killing myself. THE HOSPITAL WAS HORRIBLE THEY WERE JUST LIKE O WELL WAIT FOUR OURS WITH THAT SHIT IN YOUR EAR. So my dad took me to another hospital which they looked in my ear and foundt out it was a cockroach. >< So they put this grayish water type stuff in my ear and it died. But I had to wait like 6- 7 hours for the doctor to actually come take out the roach with a really cold pair of scissors. WORST NIGHT EVER!! Also the Thanksgiving was ok. Not the best.

Anybody got a worser story.

i was gonna say at least you dont have big roaches like, the ones here in new orleans....but then i saw you're from florida.... :x i hate roaches!!! :sniper:

and those who dont like spiders: http://www.itcantendlikethis.com/spiders.html

 

[Sedako]

Those aren't spiders, they're wind scorpions/camel spiders, and they belong to a different family. That picture has already been discussed before.

If I had any grasshoppers remotely that size with spikes on them I'm afarid I would be lobbing home made explosives at them.

One time I was going to the bathroom and I felt somethins in my mouth a moth flew out of my mouth

 

[disruptioN_]

One time when I was little, I touched a small black spider thinking it was a toy or something, then it moved. That was so scary.

I've got a little money spider living on my computer monitor. I call him... err... "Spider"...

Sweet! I've got a dead fly sitting upside down in my ceiling. I smashed him there in early summer and he's still sitting there.

I hate practically all insects, namely ants (had one lodge itself in my ear during a stay at a hotel once, got bitten by fire ants, swarmed by ants when climbing up a tree, etc.), flies, bees and wasps, but the absolute worst insect is the cockroach.

I'm half-Philippino, so my dad took my mother and I to the Philippines when I was ten. I will never go back, ever. Not even if I had that spray Pressure was talking about.

The roaches there aren't tiny roaches. These kind won't get up in your ear, 'cause they can't fit. They're like the size of your hand; when they fly, they look like little black baseballs whizzing through the air. And these aren't the kinds of roaches that, when you turn on a light, they go scurrying for the cover of darkness. These are roaches who, when you turn on the light to look at them, they stare right back at you and ask, "What, punk?"

I first encountered one at this large building in Manilla that was like a bus stop terminal, I guess. It was around midnight, and I saw this black thing on the floor moving around, and being a curious ten year old I went to check it out. Noticed it was a bug, raised my foot to step on it, but had second thoughts and tried to scare it away by stomping near it, instead of killing it. Was trying to be nice...bad idea 'cause that sucker chased me; I jumped onto this row of blue plastic chairs and dashed across them and it kept following me.

Then when we got to the province we were staying at, my family and I slept upstairs in this bare cement-and-wood room. We had to put mosquito nets over the beds while we slept. One night I awoke to this click-hissing, it's the roaches of course but the sound's really close. I reach under my net, flick the light on, and by my hand there are roaches, right near the light switch. Roaches on the walls. I duck my hand back in, and lay down stiff as a board, wide-eyed. And there, in the corner of my mosquito net, having apparently chewed its way through or something, was a roach. On my net. ABOVE MY HEAD. I can't even remember what happened after that but in the morning I discovered I had a bite on my eyebrow. It was all puffy and the home remedy was to rub a clove of garlic on it.

I am now severely terrified of those little &*#*$&@s.

 

[Varg|Hund]

I once had a mosquito "bite" my eyelid while I was sleeping. Needless to say, my eyelid became really swollen up and I couldn't see anything with that eye for several days :|

Eeeew, cockroaches really are nasty lil' critters.
