• How do I get over my fear of bugs

I'm not afraid of insects, but i do hate it when something's crawling on me and i don't know what it is. A few weeks ago i encountered this "thing" that bites like a mosquito, but it's different than a mosquito. So this thing lands on me and i notice it and try to scare it off, but it just wouldn't go off. I had to pull it off and it held on real tightly, it had a really strong grip for its size. Then the fucker escaped and flew through the air in really fucking weird patterns and it flew on my leg again, then tried to bite me. So i pulled the bug off, grabbed a paper tissue (so i didn't have to wash my hands afterwards) and tried to squish it, but nothing happened to it. So i put it on the table and tried to squish it against the table, using a much bigger force this time. [b]The fucker was still in one piece and its legs were still moving, what the fuck[/b]. Then i just flushed it down the toilet. I have no idea what the fuck that thing was. [QUOTE=Durabeam;17037139]Make this your desktop.

Fuck bugs. Fuck that shit. They are disgusting creatures that don't belong on this earth. I am terrified of them and refuse to go the butterfly house in the Detroit Zoo. I am scared shitless of bugs. Mosquitoes don't bother me because they are everywhere here in Michigan. Know what's the worse, when you're driving on the highway, and you see a bee on the dashboard, looking at you. Staring at you. Its eyes drilling into your skull. Oh christ, they're out to get me
Neutralize them. It worked for me, I killed around 100 wasps in one day, when they were building a hive around my garden, then one stung me in the face, I grabbed that log, wasps and all and ripped the bark right off, then drowned them in hot water. Mother fuckers. As for spiders...Well. Fact: You swallow around 3 spiders every year, in your sleep.

Have you seen the flying ones? The ones that are 3-4 inches in length? No? You've seen nothing.
[QUOTE=KarlHeinrichMarx;17019475]I had mealworm fudge once. We have a botanical garden here in montreal, and once a year at the insectarium there they serve insects. I had spicy-seasoned scorpions, crickets, ants, you name it. Fucking tasty shit. I'm surprised we as a society find bug-eating taboo for some reason.[/QUOTE] I once had a lollipop that had a little scorpion inside it. It was pretty much just the shell and it was dry and flaky, so I didn't eat that part.
I've eaten Honey Ants. They are pretty good.
TO me, hissing cockroaches looks cute :3 [media]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/4/46/Female_Madagascar_hissing_cockroach.JPG[/media]
Dress up as a bug and fight crime. Become the fear.
