I wouldn’t have sorta screamed, I would have went screaming into the night. Those are some scary looking bugs. Never seen one before in real life and don’t want to.

Oh my god that is a scary-looking bug! In Tennessee this bug appeared? Wow, I think I might have remembered that guy. I kept praying mantises and crickets as pets but I probably would have been scared of that guy’s pincers!
And, thanks for the haiku link - cool!

The larval form looks even scarier: I would urinate myself if I saw one and bugs generally don’t scare me.

except centipedes

Ooh, centipedes are wicked scary! Once I killed one all by myself. Talk about hard to kill! I squashed it, sprayed it with hairspray, tried to drown it…it was like a Bruce Willis movie…Usually all I can manage is to trap them in glasses and wait for someone else to kill them.
