I remember seeing this really weird exotic looking caterpillar a few years ago in my yard.

I think you shouldn't be getting too close to any of these overly hairy guys, the little hairs can be sent off flying and cause damage to your eyes (not sure about this specific one)

My cousin had this one on his t-shirt two years ago, I don't know what it is but it also looked suspicious.

you get the giant centipede? I'm sure that one's pretty deadly.

My friend used to have this website where he'd upload every insect that he found when he was on vacation. I didn't know there were some of these in France:

A good insect is a dead insect.

Hate those creatures. Except butterflies. Except ladybirds. Except the A Bug's Life characters.

But man, when you're sleepin' and a huge scolopendrid run above your head it's kinda disgusting

It's so amazing, It'd be thrilling to find this in real life.

Also, recently learned that Daddy Long Legs are not Spiders, they're some other type of arachnid called Harvestmen.

I wonder if some of our great ancestors looked at least a bit as weird as these guys.
