    Researchers have identified four new species of brain controlling fungus . One specific species resemble felt covered antenni with a morrel-brain appendage growing form the crowns of the heads heads of carpenter ants.(those are the ones that farm mould underground from fresh leaf clippings) Zomie ants are then directed to disperse by an earthy draconian intelligence controlling the mind of the insect. Ants are compelled to die in places that are optimal for the paracitic fungus to infect more ants.

    Ummm...I'm confused. A question mark?

    The statement should be: Ants are pretty cool, bitches!

    In hipforum grammar a question mark can be replaced by a ", bitches!".

    Just so you know.

    I was wondering the same thing. What if some human came along and ate a whole bunch of the spores.

    Probably nothing but...
