[QUOTE=victormeriqui_1;22201149]I always tought of sticking a needle in the back of a junebug and suck what ever was inside of it[/QUOTE]

Wouldn't be much to suck. Unless you are a spider, since spider inject their venom into the bug, paralyzes and turns the stuff inside it to a soup... literally yes a soup and sucks it up. And the scary part is that the bug still alive while being eaten up like a soup.

Fascinating.

[JDK721]

there were like 40 of them on my front porch

a lot were on their backs.. I noticed that they get flipped over and can't recover. you'd think they'd have something to help them get back on their feet.

What you see on the picture is not fake, nor any kind mutation happen to the insect. This is a fully grown up male Goliath. They are totally harmless, yes they do no harm(but they could if they are in the season of mating they could possibly lay eggs inside your head).

And imagine this if you where driving your bike down the road and you don't wear a helmet and suddenly this fly into your head. If you where in a high speed on the bike maybe you would get some head injuries.
This kind of insect lives in rain forests only in Africa.

I have hold one of these before at a zoo. Its a great experience to hold such a magnificent creature and imagine there still could be bigger ones out in the jungle we never have discovered yet.[/QUOTE]

Now if you see one of these things.
Run the hell away. They're native to where I live and are a gigantic pestilence to the local dogs.

Now you see, i wouldn't mind those. They're too heavy to fly and they're peaceful. They're just big lazy bugs..

[Pandamobile]

I live right in the middle of all the Great Lakes, so we get these motherfuckers:

They smell like fish, and they always swarm around streelights in ridiculous numbers.

I remember I had a rather redneck bucktooth friend named Geoffry, Went to his house for awhile and we were hanging out. His mom came in "Hey come look, junebug invasion!" I had no idea what they were and went upstairs to see the screen door absolutely 100% crawling with them, through the cracks of them the [b]ENTIRE[/b] porch was covered with them and so was the yard. I was so fucking terrified that night that I hid in the basement and camped out there, wouldn't even leave for a snack or anything

There was so much nothing on the last half of that I almost pictured like a mallet or a giant flyswatter coming down, I was ready to scream like a little girl.

But it ended up being kinda cute, huh

[Kalamadea]

I don't mind june bugs. It's these motherfuckers that I hate.
Lovebugs. [img]http://aggie-horticulture.tamu.edu/galveston/images/beneficial-37A-%20GCMGA4241_love_bug.jpg[/img]
Fuckers swarm and cover everything. Especially cars. To top things off, their blood is acidic, so if you don't wash them off of your car; the paint peels the fuck off.

[Vexont]

I hate these fuckers so much, but then, they must serve SOME purpose or else they would have been wiped out via evolution shortly after their inception into the world. so I guess it all evens over.

[hypno-toad]

I went out to the woods once, one fell out of a tree, landed on my head, then hissed at me.

I'm pretty sure that wasn't a june bug, mate.
More likely a daemon of some sort.

[hypno-toad]

It was one of these assholes

The fuck is that? I've never seen a beetle like that.

[hypno-toad]

I'm fairly sure they are the species of junebug native to were I live.

[Nilrus]

The ONE day I decide to open my window I see one of these huge motherfuckers coming into my room. My reaction was screaming NO NO NO FUCK NO while running out of my room.

I soon returned with an electric flyswatter but he'd gone. I promptly closed my window and I do not believe I will open it again this summer.
