maybe more legs, I can't tell when all of them are moving so fast!

and yeah of all the rooms in my house to live in, they choose the bathroom where by the time I notice them my pants are already down XD

but the thing is, millipedes are much smaller (at least outside of the jungle) and they move slower... but most of all
you know what the hell they are, with these things I'm clueless

I actually have no idea what they are, I just know a centipede and millipede, but I think I've seen something like that in my bathroom before.. I think I just either left it alone, or I killed it.

well that's what I did the first time... and the second time... but these things just keep appearing, especially in the summer and winter...
if I suddenly stop logging on without reason, let it be known that I was either abducted by aliens are bitten by one of these

ehh, you gotta see how they move in real life, only a foot away from your face, then you start imagining them crawling all over your body

it might be... the color is completely different and the body is much longer, but if that was taken at an angle it might be the same species... do you have an idea what it is then?

I think it is a centipede... you should google centipede and check out images.

k, but A) I don't think it has 100 legs and B) it would have to be a special kind of centipede right?

holy shit you are right
these are the criminals! allthough the article said that it has
15 pairs of legs, I don't get why it is still called a centipede
but thanks I'll get some centipede spray or whatever very soon

just read the article, it is ALL pretty much cuz of the moisture, I guess we have to take steps to dry the bathroom floor, and brush away leaves that build up on the outside wall of the house, cuz that sort of "invites" them in...
but at the moment I am a little scared, they said that a bite from one of those fuckers could be very painful, and just the thought of them touching me makes me shiver, let alone bite me

yeah it's pretty damn creepy; bugs in general freak me out because i just imagine them carpeting the floor below me or covering my entire body..not ants though, i just love killin' them.

when I was I kid I used to melt them into the sidewalk with a magnifying glass, and once in a while I picked one up and squished its ass, making a bubble pop out of its mouth XD
but back on topic it seems these centipedes are hard to get rid of, I need some strong anti-bug spray and a dehumidifier, as well as some time to brush away all the leaves next to our house, oh and a ton of sticky bug-traps...

well you weren't exactly sure...
but seriously, why the f*ck are they called centipedes if they only have 30 legs?!?!?

Shh, they don't know that.
And would you want them to have more than 30 legs? How about 200?

hell no but if they only have 30 legs then why do they call them a name that means having 100 legs?

Because people that study bugs are idiotic and fucked up?
