One thing is for certain, there is no stopping them. The worms will soon be here.

And I for one welcome our new insect overlords.

I can be helpful in rounding up others to toil in their underground sugar caves.

I always thought they were. If not insects, what are they?

A quick way to tell if something is an insect is if it has a head, a thorax, an abdomen, exactly 6 legs, and antennae

The 6 legs is usually the biggest giveaway, discounts millipedes, centipedes, worms, spiders, etc. from being insects

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it’s too interesting, it doesn’t belong. If it’s not interesting, it doesn’t belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh… what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don’t spam.
