What Bugs You?

[Mirage]

I don't like bugs, but I like spiders, because they eat bugs.

[Araciel]

i hate insects and bugs and such...they i don't go outside and bother them under their rocks or whatever, so as long as they don't bother me in my place of residence, we will have no problem...

as i always say, bugs look like aliens and they're tiny...which means sneaky...just can't be trusted

[Shadowdust]

I accept that bugs have a job to perform in our world. Nonetheless, they best watch out because I have a job to perform as well...squashing them. ?

[Drift]

spiders piss me off, just TOO. MANY. LEGS!

[Little Blue]

I don't mind bugs and whatnot, as long as they stay many miles away from me. I'm terrified of bees and wasps so I get scared by anything that buzzes around cos I mistake them for bees and wasps. They sting and thats something I've vowed never to experiance.

Pesticides are chemical poisons used as a means of eradicating pests.

A TERRIBLE BEAUTY


I was just thinking of this artist, Jennifer Angus. She used over a million bugs in her installation "A Terrible Beauty." In this exhibition she explored the correlation between the mentality of collecting, colonialization and Imperialism, use of pattern & decoration, the heirarchy of catagorization and ideological values from the Victorian period.

Generally when we think of bugs we think of ugly, squirmy, black and brown, grotesque little beings. But I think Jennifer Angus shows how gorgeous the bug world can be. The little creatures she uses are naturally colourful and have undergone 0 modification.

I think they're absolutely stunning:


Egypt Room


India


Japan Room

I like bugs, except for cicadas. They scare me so much. But most bugs are so cute and I don't kill them because that's mean.

I love the Bolivian Caterpillar. It's adorable and furry, but very poisonous if you touch the fur.

Hey all you insect-haters; have you forgotten that butterflies and ladybugs are also insects? X3 And pretty, shiny dragonflies~

[Bunny]

Hobo Spiders = <3

[Twisted Tinkerbell]

I was in a shop and they were giving samples away not long ago, and one of the samples was queen ants covered in chocolate. They were really yummy!

I like dragonflies and butterflies.

I have had enough from bugs and insects to last me a life time.
Three times I was beated by a bee. I had a spider climbing my hand when I was 10. My room is always full of house flies even though I don't open the windows. Finally, few days ago I was beaten in my chin with a mysterious insect and it swallowed. =_=
It is impossible to be friendly with them, never.

I'm scared of most bugs. I know that it's an irrational fear but it is just something I can't get over. I'm mostly scared of spiders, I can't even be in the same room as one. They terrify me.

[Tempest]

I hate, hate, hate earwigs. They're creepy. Flies don't bother me as long as they're outside, even though maggots are the most disgusting thing ever. I don't mind other bugs like beetles, butterflies, even ants(again, as long as there outside) I like.

[Bart's Friend Milhouse]

I don't really like houseflies. So dirty...
