Ode to the House Centipede

Dec 08, 2008 19:13

Do not click on the link below if creepy insects freak you out. I'm just giving you fair warning.

It should be too cold for bugs now, damnit. But today I came home and found one of these on the floor near the piano and almost flipped out. It's a house centipede, a.k.a. a brown fuzzy, a.k.a. a creature from the bowels of hell itself. I loathe ( Read more... )

wtf, links, poems, randomness

OH NOES TOO CUTE :D

I love the last line.

I'm glad you escaped with your life.

I am glad I escaped with my life as well. Bugs. *shudders*

So I’ll locate a handy shoe
Or, if it were on hand,
A rocket launcher,
And soon proceed,
As dear Mal Reynolds said,
To end you.

*dies* LOLOLOLOL.

:D :D :D

That was very cute! You should do silly poems more often.

Hee, silly poems are fun. Centipedes, on the other hand, are not. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to see Drex about that rocket launcher... :P

Heh. Oddly, my last encounter with a house centipede also inspired poetry.

Really, now? *amused* Nasty little buggers, they are, though.

Oh wow. But you were triumphant against the evil centipeded?? (Yay Mal!) That's a very harrowing experience. I have some kind of similar reaction to um.. bees. Maybe they're scared of poetry and will leave you alone now?

I was indeed triumphant over the evil centipede, after smiting it repeatedly with a shoe and cursing it and its mother in many creative ways. Damn thing. Bees... bees are okay, at least I think honeybees are, since they're sort of chill. I hate wasps, though. Got stung on the neck once when I was five. Gah, just, bugs. *makes a face* I really don't mind them as long as they're not invading my personal space, but oh man, when they do, no thanks.

And yay, Mal!

*laughs* 'Squoogle', I believe, should be used more often, 'cuz it's certainly what centipedes do. :D
