    Holy crap She made a lot.

    We people talk as if we are the center of the universe and the object of attention of all the gods. Maybe the insects are instead.

    Yeah, she sure did. There is new ones discovered all the time, and if they all ganged up on us we would be in some deep shit.

    If you took all the insects in the air, on the ground, and under the ground, will they fill up the Grand Canyon?

    You don't think they do this already? You haven't been to my house after dark in the summer.

    The worst part about bugs - none of them are sexy. :(

    Bugs are essential in life. Even the two legged people type. :)

    I've read that ants have the most biomass of any animal species.

    i have an obese fly that's been walking around my apartment for the last few days. i found him upstairs by the sink one cold morning, and as i heated up the apartment he revived just enough to walk around, but not enough to fly.

    i think he's explored every corner of this place since then.

    combined weight of all insects is more than that of humans

    I think we have so many insects because of how many people kill spiders, I think if less people stepped on spiders the spider/other bug ratio would be more even
