This thread is fu
cking terrifying but some of these are actually beautiful. If I ever found one of them in my room though I would break my window and jump out hoping for a swift brainsplattering to the sidewalk.
My bug/insect phobia is getting progressively worse after being traumatized by the hell creatures time and time again. A few days ago I found a giant a
ss beetle crawling an inch from my face. A month ago I felt something on my arm swatted by instinct and saw this weird transparent shrimp looking creature with 6 legs wings and beady eyes. A few months ago I felt something tickling my arm looked down and saw a fuc
king scorpion. A month ago I was relaxing in the living room to some Netflix with the back door open when the biggest damn bug I've ever seen flew inside and started banging all over the walls taking out lamps and such before trapping me in the corner. It was a grasshopper the size of my hand. The wings and legs were all about as big as my fingers. Might of actually been a locust, I'm not sure. The cats saved me but it was so fu
cking big that I was scared it was gonna hurt the cats so my dad let it go outside.
A couple years ago I was swimming (back before my bug fear was so bad I refused to swim) and one of these absolutely terrifying arguments for a godless existence came flying straight at me and I'm pretty sure I pi
ssed myself trying to escape. Why? Why nature? Why do these exist?
My dad caught it as a pet letting it fly freely and crawl on his hands inside the house. I locked my door and covered all possible holes and entrances. S
hit was bigger than the remote.
Spiders on the other hand don't scare me so bad. They're kind of cute close up. They take out other bugs so they're helpful and they don't seem to want to bother me. I do find bugs/insects fascinating as long as they're nowhere near me.
