When you see a bug do you kill it?

[FeelinGood]

Well, right now there is some sort of bug, not really sure what it is, probably a nat crawling across my laptop screen, and when I first saw it I was going to smash it, but then I said, "hell, why not live and let live?".

I know it may seem an odd thing, caring that much about an insect, but for me I respect all forms of life. I own a tarantula (which I feel bad about keeping it in a cage, but I have had it since I was 9 so I can't really just let it out to nature it will die.) and I think that has really changed my view on all life.

So, yeah when you see a bug do you kill it?

[ShortMonkey]

Yes and when I see a big spider I run and scream. We don't get tarantula's in Australia.

[CMG-UTOPIA-2008]

I only let Lady Bugs live because Lady Bugs are good luck and don't do anything.

Everything else i kill cause they are either pests, or they can harm you. I especially hate bugs that fly.

[paintballr]

well it depends what kind of bug it is.

tick = death
spider = sometimes death, most time i take it outside
other = leave it alone unless it's annoying

hope you learned a lot about me

[projecthades]

we must ask ourselves what is life before we answer this question because depending on some beliefs yuo live forever in some form of bliss normally called heaven by the mass majority. But thier are also religions that belive you are rencarnated as a different being depending on how you lived youre life if this is the case then killing the bug could make it reborn into a human or a god even or it could be reborn into something even lower than a bug it could be reborn into a atom singular and nothing else. of course if you have no religion when you kill the bug what happens then does it float in an infinate limboe or does its mind go to a plain that we can not even begin to comprehend what truly is the bugs ending point in life or is its end actually a new begining we can not tell but then again all the world is is what you believe it is if you believe the world to be fucking icecre,a then it is so it is up to you what the bugs ultimate fate is. but to answer you main question I SMASH THE FUCK OUTA THOSE LITTLE BASTARDS THEN SET THE REMAINS ON FIRE BECAUSE THEY HAVE NO RIGHT TO BASK IN THE GLORY THAT IS ME!!!

[Joshiwa]

It really depends on the situation but I try not too. The only insect I kill with no exceptions are ticks, I hate ticks.

[tarahloveshentai]

If it's a spider. I can't stand them.

The other night when I was laying in bed watching tv and playing Pokemon, I saw something move out of the corner of my eye and a Daddy Long Legs type spider was crawling across my bed.

I jumped up, grabbed a tissue, snatched it, squished it, and threw it away.

[Jamoke]

9 times out of 10 I will go out of my way to "shoo" it out the door.

And yes, I do realize this is one of the least heterosexual things I've ever said.

[americanidiot2f]

If its a spider, I will probably kill it. I just hate them, first if it comes unexpectingly, I literally jump and run. Then I come back and take it down.

Other than that, I blow them away (NO, NOT THAT WAY, breathe on them very hard so they could go away)

[Dropkicked]

Yes, hardcore.

[kdfsjljklgjfg]

It really depends on the bug. If it's a spider or ant and moves into my way of what i'm doing or very close to me, I bring the pain. If it's off to the side and away, I'll let it go.

If it's a mosquito, I unleash hell and try to murder it no matter what.

[VitalNovix]

No. Not always.

See, if I see a bug outside, I dont kill him, because hes in his house, but if that motherfuckers anywhere inside my house or my car, Ill kill the bitch in a second.

[N1N-JA]

Heh. Yes.

[Cabbster]

YES FUCKING NOISY CRICKETS OMFG

[dearion]

I usually don't mind bugs. Unless they're on my computer screen then I just punch them. That's right I punch them while they're on my computer screen unlkie the rest of you wusses who just squish them with a paper towel. I never get rid of scorpions though I remove thier stingers and then keep them with my collection. I currently have 15 scorpions living with me.

Gotta go with ShortMonkey on this one. The run and scream reflex always goes into effect with spiders. Ugh, I hate them SO much.

[UfaKefe]

OH MY GOD I hate bugs. Whenever I see one I just want to take off my shoe and beat the life out of it.

GAH I hate them!

[emochild]

I seem to only kill mosquitos, because they are the only insects that ever really bother me

[Snake-Arsenic]

It's Funnel Web season where I live. They keep coming into the house from the rain so no more bare feet.

Also I kill every one I can because I don't want them roaming around the house if I can help it and a lot of times it is too dangerous to pick them up.

[wasb]

Depends on the bug, if it's a spider I tend to pretend it's not there which is kind of hard depending on the size, if it's to big I get someone else to put it outside, as I have arachnophobia; a spider isn't a bug though, it's an arachnid.

I don't usually kill bugs unless they annoy me, which reminds me of this one time where I was sleeping and I felt something crawl up my leg, I go into a state of panic, thinking it was a spider, turns out it was a earwig, I picked it up with my thumb and my finger and squeezed the life out of it(I heard an unpleasent "EEEEEEE"). Take note I was in a state of primal rage/terror.

[Institutionalized]

I will either kill it or let it outside.

[Gergaloth]

I usually play with the insects, or atleast try to. I get bit a lot, especially by the spiders.

[TailsPrower]

You know what they say, "kill anything that has more than two legs!" I have no qualms about insecticide, they mean nothing to me. It's only my problem if I end up in their shoes.

[Solraczeravla]

If i see an ant i let it go, if i see a lady bug i do so, too, but if i see a roach, i kill it.

Now if we start to get dramatic and i see an scorpion or a tarantula, well...

Who cares i just run, grab something and i smack it; if it's any disturbing bug i just kill it.

[Themarkinside]

If the insect steps into my territory, I will result to shooing it away. If it comes back, I will kill it.
I fucking hate insects.

NO! Don't kill the poor scorpion.

[MrHero17]

Unless its something beneficial like a ladybug or spider I kill them.

[Achromatic]

Last night a big spider landed on my floor from out of nowhere and started running in circles. I threw my shoe as hard as I could at it.

[Cericon]

Lady bugs, flies, and Lightning Bugs I let live.

Everything else must die.

[LedgendGamer]

I've never really liked smashing bugs. It's a waste of my time and it gets their guts everywhere.

If they piss me off, though, they're dead.
