Do you feel bad when squashing a bug? I just killed an ant. At first he lay there convulsing then I felt sorry for the little thing so I put him out his misery. When I was younger I used to burn the big spiders that came into my room with deoderant and a lighter. I don't do that anymore because they actually catch the irritating insects, which is quite cool. Summertime is full of annoying insects... |

I made a thread about this in the summer after I massacred about 20 insects. I felt mega guilty |
||||||||

I dodge earthworms on the sidewalk (yes, i know they're no insects). I take spiders out into a shed near my house when I find them... except for the HUGE wolf spiders in my basement. They seem content staying downstairs, so I let them be. I do however kill spiders that get on me, and also bees, because bees seem to like stinging me in the face even if I promise to leave them alone. I think bees are evil, and have rotten souls. |

i kill as swiftly as possible so they dont suffer. |
||||||||

i used to be terrible as a child to poor insects. put them in the frying pan, etc. didn't eat them either. mega-guilty and remorseful. fun at the time though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you should you murderer! i tend to run away from bees. i agree they are evil. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
serious question to all: can anyone explain why they feel bad about killing an insect? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Bees like to build their nests near my front door so that they can swoop down immediately as I open the door and sting my face. This is why I must kill. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Wasps, moths, flying ants, daddy long-legs. They must all die. Any other small crawly thing is cool by me though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I feel bad about killing insects because they are alive, and it seems to me that they have as much right to keep living as I do. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i was deeply affected by the ant in honey i shrunk the kids. i believe they have souls. |
||||||||
|
|

They would smite you if they had the chance. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
are you a vegetarian/vegan? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no. but that's because i have very loose morals, and i am weak. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I really hate insects, but I still feel terrible if I kill one of them. My life sucks. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i am not trying to prove any sort of point or condemn/exalt anyone here. just asking questions to understand the way people think about this. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Maybe you'd think it would be okay to kill insects if you ate them afterwards. Do it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that's an interesting point. many people do eat insects. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i ate a few moths one time and it kinda made me sick. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
setting fire to them was the best. can of lynx and a lighter. still feel bad about it. the nostalgia is nice though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Sometimes after i kill something I'll throw it in the toilet and pee directly on it just to make sure its dead. Then I flush it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i just let one go. they're such hard workers. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, can of lynx and a few hundred ants i hate myself |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i used to document that with my webcam. oh, the memories i could relive if i hadn't wiped my hard drive. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
make a new film. you can live with the guilt of killing insects. i'm sure i can. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the insect brain is set up for such simple things it has no nerve center to feel pain. squash away. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the main reason i don't squish the spiders i find in my house is because of the mess they leave behind when they leave their behind behind! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
when I was 9, me and my mate had a 7" magnifine glass.... fun on ant colonies and especially woodlouses... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
a summer pursuit admittedly.. >:) |

|
|
tip of the day: never squash a pregnant spider. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i prefer not to kill anyone/anything. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
good on you tolstoyed. you are a real man. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
insects. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i should add im no gandhi though! now he was the man! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'm sure ghandi killed a few insects in his time. what do budhists do not to kill insects and eathworms in the ground when building their temples? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
when i was a kid i used to squish em (flies) against the window i'd burn them with matches and lighters and watch them go crazy too. i feel bad about that. i was just a kid though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
they should "GANG WAY!!!" at the ground just before they build it, then all have a right old laugh (they're drunk) |
||||||||

I used to enjoy playing "War" with wasps. Destroy their nests, burn them alive etc. I love most insects, but wasps are vicious buggers (they often stung me for no reason). A favourite trick was to have a coke bottle with dregs in, leave it with the lid off near their nest, get a dozen or so in it. Screw the lid on and then burn (on a low wood fire) the bottle. You could see them staggering around in the fumes, getting stuck to the molten plastic etc. I'd shudder at the thought of someone doing it to a "proper" animal or insect, even bees (which I like and they serve a purpose- honey). The existance of wasps in no way enriches my life, so I have no guilt about killing them. I know it's taking it a bit personally and they don't mean to be a pain, but they are, so I do >:D |

one time I squashed a spider on the dock at some lake. A million tiny red spiders went flying out of her and went skipping about on the surface of the water. And that was the beginning of fairies. |

hahaha this is the funniest thread! |

I think bees are evil, and have rotten souls. :D lol!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it depends on my mood. sometimes i'm a brutal killing machine and sometimes i set them free again..missing legs and stuff. |

One time I was babysitting my boyfriends and I was feeding him his crickets and about 5 fell out of the case and were in my bathroom sink, I freaked out and just turned on the water and saw them go down the drain, but then the little fuckers were climbing back up and I freaked out and kept the water running till they disappeared. The only thing I felt bad about was that he paid money for those things and I'm flushing them down the sink. |

i don't squash bugs and ants anymore... i was once putting ants on toothpicks, and then burning them. i then realized how their friends come and pick up the dead bodies. it made me very sad... And since then, i never kill any insects except for moskltos. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
in summer i try to leave the mosquitoes a chance by putting the anti-mosquito device on but opening the windows, hoping to make them leave (don't know if it's a stupid thing do to? now that i think of it, maybe the devide doesn't work if the window is open... or maybe it's just a killer and doesn't have any repellant effect... em... : |) - then after a while i close the windows and leaves the anti-mosquito on for the night, hoping it quickly kills the fools who remained into my room... no mercy, life feeds on life anyway. (i'm a vegetarian since i'm aged... 5 or something, but i know the world is cruel anyway and animals kill themselves as well so why bother?) but once i felt guilty because i sprayed a spider with insecticide by mistake as i was on a fly/mosquito-spray-killing-spree in some holiday location : ( don't know if it/she/he died, it didn't fall but it walked dizzily after that. i hope it/she/he recovered, but i will never know. oh well. (by the way, i don't really mind that much mosquito "bites"... what annoys me is the buzzing that prevents me from sleeping at night.) |
