I'm opposed to the death penalty, I'm a vegetarian, in most situations I consider untimely deaths a bad thing. However, in the case of bugs, I really couldn't care less. There are a like a billion of those little guys crawling around. I don't think by killing several common black worker ants the world will fall into disarray. Did you know that there are 200 MILLION bugs to every human? MILLION- WITH AN M. That is a lot of bugs. What if they rose up against the human race? They would take over in a millasecond. It would be no problem. The term "bug", btw, doesn't count spiders and those mother fuckers are the ones that I'm worried about. There are spiders as big as dinner plates in the world. That is the kind of thing that makes me wake up screaming in the middle of the night. BUT, I don't kill spiders. I hate them, but I don't kill them. I grab a cup that I don't care about and some kind of hard surface, scoop up little Charlotte or whomever and place them gently outside. Though I just wikipedied spiders- looking for another famous spider to accompany the Charlotte's Web reference and the pictures of those buggers (hahah, their not bugs, their arachnids! oh I'm so clever) made me scream and jump around the room (at first I found this linkhttp://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Spider which I found rather amusing, but someone has too much time on their hands) . My legs turned to jello. *Shudder* They are SO creepy and crawling with the eyes and the legs and the colors and the hair. UGUGGHGHUGHGUGUG.
But back to the killing of things. I killed some ants, just took them out with one forceful footprint. I was surprised to find ants, seeing as its winter in Toronto and I'm going to assume that they would be infesting someones kitchen right now, searching for warmth and food . However, these ants may have been the reject clan because they were crawling along a wall. There is snow on the ground buddy- get your antenna inside! (I live on the 21st floor of a building, I would be really impressed if ants made it up here). It really wasn't a life changing experience. I mean I felt all powerful and godly, but then I thought of the wife and husband ants, and the little larva crying out for their lost parent.... I can only take animal sympathy so far, I don't think they'll be missed. Hopefully..... Otherwise I might be carried off by a swarm of worker ants in the middle of the night and picked apart by spiders. OH LORD I'm getting NO sleep tonight.
