I pull the legs off daddy long leg spiders for fun. If I see a cock roach, I get a shoe and crush it. I'm not a Jain, I have no problems killing pests.

Centipedes and large spiders are my enemies. Anything in my shower or bed, though, is getting the boot.

Anyway, I was trying to decide if I should exercise or do my laundry today, since I only have time for one. Then I remembered I was going to the dim sum place for dinner, and walking there requires enough of a walk to justify saving the gym for tomorrow. So I made my decision.

What the hell is dim sum? :I

Humans have always played god. Millions of animals and insects are killed everyday. When you kill an insect you kill it because you're afraid of it, not for any horrible reason. Only a strict vegan who has literally never harmed a fly, can take the moral high ground when it comes to killing insects.

A wrong and a wrong doesn't make a right.

Hurting or killing small animals for fun as an adult is considered a sign that someone is likely to be a sociopath you know :p

Fun Fact: When Cockroaches die the pretty much throw up eggs, thousands of them. In summary be prepared to have a Cockroach epidemic.

Of course it doesn't but my point is, the majority of us are guilty in some way or another.

Let's just change the subject xD

The only people who can take a moral high ground are Jains. I'm too lazy to explain that is why there's Google.

You were saying, since we kill so much bugs already that who cares that we kill one more. Bugs feel the same way we do. Yes, I do see your point, but we can be the ones who change the template. To stop the killings.

Agreed Since I would have won that argument. xD so.. how bout dem yankees?

Yankee candles are divine. My favourite is bed linen :I

I dont kill bugs intentionally. Bees scare me but I run away and leave them alone. Bugs dont really bother me. I simply feel no need to kill them.

Yeah, I'm sorry, but I really don't see how I'm a bad person for killing centipedes that show up in my house. They scare the shit out of me, and it's not like I'm hunting them or something, they just show up. I'm not going to just let them live if letting them live leaves me in panic. It's their own fault for walking straight into danger, whether they realize it or not.

So if they kill you, it's your fault? Okay....

Dude it's Lyre, its best if you ignore her, and carry on. Like I do. xD

Yay!!!

What was I saying is that you said it's the bug's fault for going to you and getting killed. So on the flipside, what if happens the bug kills you? There you go.
