Was anyone else obsessed with catching bugs when they were younger? Like, in recess, I would always be digging through the dirt at the edge of the playground to find roly-polies, those brown millipedes that curl into a spiral, and sometimes those black centipedes with the bright red and yellow stripes. I found a dark lookin millipede with dark stripes that let me hold it. I would always be doing my damndest to catch crickets, grasshoppers, and rarely katydids (those bite, by the way. 7 year old me found that out the hard way- but still kept catching them)
I remember finding a red and green caterpillar and naming it Watermelon




i swear i misread that as “eating bugs” and for the entire paragraph i was horrified
I did eat a daddy long legs once, actually.
daddy long legs
POPPY PLAYTIME REFERENCE!?Someone get the death ray we gotta start all over
😂
Bugb 👍
not bug related but I do attempt to catch any frog/toad that crosses my path
I trapped a bunch in a box with my siblings and created a small ecosystem with dirt and grass for some reason when we were like 9
Turns out not all insects ate grass and rather each other
Rest in peace rolly pollies 😔
