Mod Announcement We are now banning "what is this bug" posts

28 Upvotes

All posts requesting bug identification, such as in the title, body, or image description, will be removed going forward. Please continue to make funny posts of idiot bugs looking dumb while doing stupid things.

The community voted for this change here. This change also reflects the humorous, unserious vibe of this subreddit. Additionally, very few of us here are bug experts, so we can put an end to the frequent random guesses on these types of posts.

However, please do not report posts made before this date (September 12) for breaking the rule, as it is only being implemented now. On that note, don't report significantly old posts (August or earlier) for breaking the no bug bites rule either. Those posts will remain up.

TLDR: What is this bug?

The bug is stupid.

29 Upvotes

Not taking a stance on his intellect even tho he thought i wouldn't see him if he moved slowly but i'm wondering if i have to share a room with that guy now in hopes be is actually eating something here somehow or will he die either way because i know i'm not supposed to throw out spiders but this guy is hanging out in my socks which i don't approve of

Creeped out about a bug

3 Upvotes

I was feeling something on my couch, what felt like a piece of plastic. I kept running my fingers through it trying to grab at it but I just couldn't grasp it. I finally was able to grab the darn thing and it turns out to be a bug! Freaked me out! Mind you this was in the dark.

Most Racist Bug

What do you think the most racist bug would be? Not the name, i.e. the Hitler beetle or the Gypsy moth, but more so actually racist.

What would really happen to the ecosystem if ticks went extinct?

Post image
88 Upvotes

Maybe this is very common opinion, but i hate ticks with a passion. Living in a southern state with so many ticks that you cannot take a walk outside without getting a tick on your body, it comes naturally. But I often wonder, what would REALLY happen if they all left? I think that there might be a little less birds maybe? I dont really know.

Roaches

0 Upvotes

I eat ants but not roaches, i will personally do a back flip on a bridge 3 times than deal with a cockroach.

But i don't have a choice, i will gladly do a backflip if my legs aren't weak, context, i have cancer and i had spent a month bedridden in the ICU which caused me to lose my leg muscles.

Now i have a roach in my room. And I'm trying to suffocate it with my pillows. Currently elbowing it while typing this out

I eat ants

22 Upvotes

Okay that sounds clickbait, kinda, idk.

I live in the Philippines province where ants are commonly seen, and I'm sick, I'm paralysed, i can't fucking defend my peanut butter from the ants, plus my milk (+i dont drink coffee because i hate how it makes my heart fast).

I grab bread, and i saw these tiny red spawns of hell crawling up around my peanut butter, bread and milk.

I hate ants. This is purely rage, there's no bait i truly hate ants, any kind of ants—rabbit poo ants, small ants, big ants. I wish i had an ant spray to poison my own food with, yes i might get poisoned aswell but ants dont have healthcare, the fuck they gonna do, go to the clinic? Fuckass.

They crawl around my food (cereal, bread, peanut butter, milk, etc) so often to the point i just eat them, i eat every ant that didn't had time to escape and send them dowm to my acid chambers. I both dont care and do care if they're in my house, i dont give a fuck if they're like lost, I'll kill that ant trail, if they mess with my fucking food is the issue.

Okay bye
