I'm sure you're all right that it's made up - how could anyone measure that and why would they want to do so?

However it's not implausible at all that we inadvertently ingest insects and/or spiders - it's sort of funny how uncomfortable some people here are with the idea, particularly considering how insects are common in the diet of some cultures. I wonder if these same people are comfortable eating arthropods such as lobsters and shrimp?

I used to have those at an apartment I live in. I think they're called asian burrowing crickets or something..they're incredibly disgusting, but that's it. They don't ruin anything and they're fun for cats to chase.

Reminds me of this epic thread.
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=54973

Also if it's just a cricket you really have nothing to be afraid of. I like all bugs though so I don't know your fear.
Not bad for a cat toy.

Lol I like how you just RAIDed it and you want your cat to eat it.

Also like the part about waiting and mocking you but im too lazy to quote it.

On the subject of eating bugs, I went to a CSN concert this summer at an outdoor amphitheater. During one song, Nash kind of choked up a bit in the middle of it for a minute, and afterward Crosby grabbed one of the mics and told everyone "Nash just did one of the hardest things in show business: he inhaled a bug during that last song."

So I'm sure the "statistic" is fake and all, but it does happen. :s

I've got one of the things in my basement. It just won't shut up at night.

Also quite difficult to find.

Luckily, it doesn't work it's way up to my room. Well, I'm not really sure what I would do if that happened...

Fucking Hell! BuGzIToOnI still speaking back in the day!

on another note: remembered killing a big ass bed bug on the floor with my leathery slippers !
I don't think I've ever wished my opponent good luck prior to a game. When I play, I play to win. I hope every opponent I ever have is cursed with fucking terrible luck. I hope they're stuck playing underneath a stepladder with a black cat in attendance a

if it doesn't fly and sting man up.

and i believe half the posters have reading comprehension problems

Naturally I go get some fucking RAID to nuke the son of a bitch, who cares about poison all over my room, right? I can't find any so I get some scrubbing bubbles since cleaning something so filthy has to be fatal to it I assume.

That's pretty fucked up. You must be really scared of insects o_o....

I lol'd so hard at you trying to micro it with the towel though.

5/5

That's right. Spiders aren't insects, but people eating some number of spiders a year on average is false.

yea I was just gonna quote that.

Also daddy long legs are not the most poisonous spiders and yes their fangs are long enough to bite human skin.

Don't worry crickets don't bite, so it's hard to do anything to you even in your sleep :p.

Other than that, buy some insecticide and spray your room.
They first ignore you. After they laugh at you. Next they will fight you. In the end you will win.
