I keep a spare house key in my mailbox, and the bottom of the mailbox is fucking [B]carpeted[/B] in those fuckers. It's like when you reach into a box filled with packing peanuts to get your package... but instead of foam peanuts it's dead bugs.
Thank god there's not that many of them where I live.
We get these in the Summer months: Christmas Beetles

Jesus, fucking clean that mail box!
I mostly get Japanese beetles where i live, they just consume almost everything in there way. And they blindly fly into almost anything. Even something as large as a house. If you have thin walls, most of the night you'll hear sporadic thuds. Kinda soothing.
[QUOTE=Raptor_Girl;22176516]When I was younger, I lived in this semi rural area. My house was surrounded by trees so when summer came, the cicadas and frogs were deafening. I've since moved..I really miss all the cicadas.[/QUOTE]
I love Cicadas, awesome little guys. Everyone that had a pussy or was gay hated em where i came from

[QUOTE=Levithan;22169651]I hate these and Craneflies.[/QUOTE]
Oh god crane flies creep me the fuck out. To make matters worse, the biggest one I've ever seen in my entire life flew in the room last night.
Think about it, I'm sitting here in the dark in front of the computer, minding my own business, browsing the LMAO Pics thread. When all of a sudden, this huge fucking mosquito-looking thing slams into my computer monitor and is silhouetted in the dark. I shoved back in my chair and damn near screamed. Didn't turn the light back off for the rest of the night.
But then tonight the motherfucker crawled up on my space bar. Got a dirty shirt and smashed that bitch.

I hate when Beatles crawl in through my bathroom window... so fucking hard to get them back to where they once belonged. I've got a feeling that Eleanor Rigby can help
[QUOTE=MRTW113;22176112]That probably annoys them too[/QUOTE]
No bi they love it.
Subcreatures, slaughter them.
I actually like Junebugs. They're hilarious to watch. They fly worse than women drive. And they crash into stuff over and over and over. Makes for good times.
One hit me in my head when I was riding my bike once, felt like someone pelted me with a rock.

I hate these things so goddamn much. We havn't gotten them lately though.
I still crap my pants whenever I see one of those goddamn bugs.
i don't mind dunebugs.
probably because they are the most pathetic bug ever, the only time i ever see them is either drowning in a urinal or dried up or dieing on the sidewalk.
[QUOTE=Patrickletch;22170269]Haha they're actually called cockchafer beetles.
This is the variety Britain endures:

That's a maybug
They're are not in denmark :D
But I do want them, they look beautiful.
These look like Christmas beetles we get here in Australia around December.
God I hate all insects.
Except lady bugs.
Lady bugs are nice untill they pee on you and fly away.
[QUOTE=Bathacker;22173953]Live in Florida, deal with these:
Yes, those are two bugs attached to each other. They are mating. They stay that way even when they fly, and they are NOT shy about crawling on you.
Worst part?
THIS. EVERYWHERE.[/QUOTE]
Oh god this, THEY ARE EVERYWHERE!
Why only Florida?! WHY!
Also these things that are scary as fuck.
[IMG]http://fmel.ifas.ufl.edu/key/images/genus/deinocerites/cancer/canadult1.JPG[/IMG]
They're about the size of a bottle cap, compared to regular mosquitoes THEY'RE HUGE
you've seen em right? Bathacker?
I though this a was a thread about having sex with a June bug because the title said [B]Fucking[/B] June bug.
Nah just kidding. I love beatles.
Beetles are awesome bugs.
I used to collect cicada shells from the park when I was a kid, the things are ridiculously loud in large groups though.

Holy shit, wasn't this gif made by hezzy?
EDIT
No, shit, it was Postal, crap...
Talk about mis-information. My whole life I was always told a cranefly was a junebug and I have never seen a real junebug before. Wow...but yea craneflies are fucking annoying, don't know about junebugs.
I like bulky beetles like those. I think they lived over there in Czech Republic, but they don't anymore. Probably the closest bug which is quite frequent is dung-beetle.

holy shit that pic is big, thumb'd
They are mostly crawling and flying low and rarely found outside forests, so they rarely bother you.
What I seriously HATE with passion are Wasps and Mosquitos. Wasps get into food all the time while being even potentially dangerous, while mosquitos have to be the most fucking annoying organism under sun.

This is the varient in my area

Damn, it looks like one of those minty sweets. I'm glad there aren't any around where I live, I'd probably have a terrible incident trying to eat them.
move to australia, all your insect problems will be gone
[sp]but you will be constantly killing arachnids with your crossbow[/sp]
I hate May Flies more, luckily they only live one day. If one gets in my room I can't sleep until I kill it or remove it. I hate to think about it getting on my face while I sleep. Ugh.
They're completely harmless.
