/jp/ - Otaku Culture

My thoughts go out to the people in Sulawesi.

/jp/ - Insect Culture

If these go extinct Gensokyo will have a shift in power.

Man Indonesia country reeks bugs now.

it's like in Metroid Prime.

Well I guess that's that

Isn't that just a tarantula hawk?

Seems like a hoax to me.

>>8748287
/jp/ has always had great insect threads.

Why is there so much hate for wasps? Don't they act as nature's police force?

>>8748406
they are quite scary, especially hornets. Especially Japanese ones

>>8748406
People over react to wasp. When I was younger I lived in a house and the area around it had TONS of them during the summer. I would sit outside eating ice cream and they would come fly by and sometimes fly into me but they never really bothered me

>Watching Gintama ( Inb4 bad taste )
>Episode 185, wasp part..
Whats going on here.

Are you our entomologist anon? If you are, I always loved your posts and I miss them.

Also scary shit.

>>8748406
They are intimidating and often agressive too.

>and sometimes fly into me

What the fuck

>>8748424
What? There was tons of them and sometimes they would just fly into my head and you could feel them. They never really stung though and they usually fly away. You've had flys or bees or shit fly into you haven't you?

>Kimsey added, "The jaws are big enough to wrap around the female's thorax and hold her during mating."

>>8748431
Too lewd

>>8748427
Yes, when I was young a bee flew into my ear and stung me. And I would be bothered as hell if an insect such as wasp bumped into me.

Why do tons of different species of wasp exist but tons of USEFUL species for not only humans, but other animals too don't?

>>8748445
Because the world is not our little backyard where everything is supposed to be useful to us.

>>8748445
And it sucks that the few good insects that help us are getting turned into evil versions of themselves

such as the European honey bees getting mixed with the africanized bees

Hahahaha

Wasps are scary.

>>8748466
Wasps are nature's ultimate "fuck you." They contribute nothing but pain and misery.

There aren't people in this thread seriously defending wasps, are there?

>>8748406
>Don't they act as nature's police force?
No they are just assholes.

Yellowjackets - Look like bees, everyone calls them bees. They are confused for bees when they eat people's food and then sting them.

Hornets - Gigantic assholes that will sting you soon as look at you, and if you do kill them, it magically summons all their friends to come sting you more.

The wasps that inhabit my room - They fly into me, annoying me all the time. They are too small to sting me and I don't know what they are but I know they are neither ants nor flies, and look closest to a species that preys on carpet beetles, such as the ones that inhabit this house. By prey, I mean they lay their eggs inside the beetle larvae, and then consume them from the inside out.

Seriously fuck wasps. They're nature's bastard sons of bitches.

I once saw one video of a wasps killing a tarantula.

Wasps eat several kinds of bug that I hate more than wasps (flies, mosquitoes, etc). I allow them to exist on and near the exterior of my home, but if one gets inside STOP EVERYTHING

>>8748445
>Why do tons of different species of wasp exist but tons of USEFUL species for not only humans, but other animals too don't?

Types of bugs that that are useful to humans:

Spiders
Centipedes
Bees
Type of bugs that humans are most scared of and will probably kill
Spiders
Centipedes
Bees

>>8748501
But spiders can do that too. And spiders can be kawaii.

>>8748502
ONLY THE RETARDED ONES.
Spiders and bees are bros.
Not sure about centipedes, but I'll take your word for it.

>>8748501
I've also experienced a Japanese hornet before. Admittedly it was indoors and the hornet was cold and dazed, but I experienced one nonetheless!

>>8748502
I never kill Spiders unless it makes its web somewhere it shouldn't, and even then I won't out right kill it, but simply move him elsewhere, I only kill the spider if it keeps trying to set a web up in a troublesome place like on my computer tower or something.

I also never kill bees unless I deem them an immediate threat to a child nearby or if its in my house and wont get the fuck out even when I open the door for it to leave.

i never run into centipedes

>>8748504
Yeah but spiders are solo dudes that require less food than a colony of wasps. The wasps can eat more.

people still kill spiders? seriously?

>>8748490
>QUICKLY EVACUATE YOUR ROOM BEFORE THEY PLAN AN ALL OUT ASSAULT

They are like 2 millimeters long. I could breathe them to death. Besides carpet beetles are worse and are certainly devouring something in an as-yet unknown location.

>>8748532
When they are inside my house, yes.
There are some fucking big spiders around here and I fear for my cats safety.

>>8748548
Your cats probably kill and eat them for the hell of it. Cats be crazy.

>>8748534
Looks like Bethylidae. Dunno which species exactly.

>Garuda
OH SHIT, NIGGER, WHAT ARE YOU DOING.
IT'S NOT A GOOD NAME.

Sexual selection might be to blame for those mandibles, similar oversized structures are also found in dobsonflies (not to mention the various assortment of stag beetles and other scarabs) and are used both for mating displays and to grasp the female during copulation. In addition, this Dalara is apparently a nest-guarding species, which is a rather attractive lifestyle for /jp/ - the male cleans and defends the nest to discourage bacteria, fungi and parasitic wasps that would otherwise make short work of the eggs, essentially acting as a housekeeper while the female is busy gathering provisions to store for the emerging larvae. The pair mates whenever the female returns to the nest, so you could think of it as taking care of your cute wasp wife's eggs while she's at work, welcoming her when she returns home and asking her whether she wants to have dinner, a bath or yourself first - of course, since she'd be a monstergirl, her answer would be obvious and you'd be immediately forced down to ground to be violated, her fatigue vanishing immediately at the prospect of having more of her eggs fertilized by her beloved husband.

And speaking of having jaws so large as to impede movement, spiders of genus Tidarren really possess such armament - the male's pedipalps are so large that they may make up to 20% of his body mass, and one of them needs to be amputated by the spider himself in order to properly walk. As with all spiders, the palps take role in the transfer of spermatophores, and in the case of Tidarren they may continue their function for several hours after being cut off from the spider, perhaps accounting for their size.

Of course, the fangtooth cannot be left out while mentioning absurdly large teeth, since this otherwise small and unassuming deep sea fish has a pair of teeth so large that the sides of its brain feature sockets to accommodate them when the animal closes its mouth.

>>8748504
What I really meant is that useful bugs tend to scare humans so they don't really survive much.

>Not sure about centipedes
About their usefulness? They kill everything from spiders to bedbugs to roaches. If there's some other kind of bug in your house, they will ruin its shit unless it is some kind of wasp probably. Spiders are better at catching flying things of course. Spiders are also better at poisoning you to death.

Now if you meant not sure about it being scary. Look at it. It looks like it was forged by demons. It has two god damn heads, like the fucking Orthrus

>>8748566
>my face when I encounter one of those

>>8748558
It's species name is on the picture. You're right about the Bethylidae family though.

>>8748566
I'd kill it too, if it gets near me.
Same with spiders too, and any other insect.
If they don't try to interact with me, we're cool.

What's the point of justifying the life of insects by saying "Oh, they kill other bugs."
You're just trading one piece of shit for another.

They all gotta go.

Should I be worried?

>>8748610
Make sure you check under the seat before taking a dump. Last thing you want is for one of those to bite your dick and/or balls.

>>8748615
I always wondered if it's possible for spider to go under the toilet lid. Nevertheless I always check. Never found any.

>>8748610
how does a window just disappear?
why the fuck would you have a window in your most private of places, your bathroom, anyway?

I missed these threads.

Doesn't this country have scientists of their own?It seems like the ones discovering new things there are always foreign scientists.
Who knows what else is there, Sulawesi is an inhabited island, maybe there are some even weirder creatures in the uninhabited ones.

Wasps are horrible but why do so many bugs want to suck out your blood? Why do we let things like mosquitoes, fleas, ticks, and bed bugs continue to exist? Can't we infect ourselves with some virus that is fatal to them?

>>8748635
You know what's funny, mosquitoes did it first with their malaria and all.

>>8748635
That's the problem with biological organisms. We can find something that's fatal to some of them or maybe even most of them, but we'll never find something fatal to all of them that isn't also fatal to us.

>>8748627
>Indonesia
>scientist
Hahahahaha! Now that's a good one! Niggers can't be scientists!

Sulawesi people are more of a nigger than the rest of the country, though. So they're, like, double nigger or something.

>>8748627
>It seems like the ones discovering new things there are always foreign scientists.
Don't you know by now that only White people can discover things? It doesn't matter if the inhabitants knew of it before. Even those human inhabitants themselves had to be discovered.

>What's the point of justifying the life of insects by saying "Oh, they kill other bugs."
Spiders and Centipedes aren't insects. Insects and arachnids cause all problems for mankind. The centipede-millipede family doesn't really, but they are much grosser.

I will not defend centipedes. When I was 6 I nearly died because one poisoned me. Nor will I defend spiders, because twice I have been bitten by brown recluses in my sleep.

I never get to see bees, because the fucking wasps kill them all.

Wasps are the reason why I'm a shutin. At least, during spring and summer. Winter and fall, the wasps are gone. But as soon as it hits spring and summer, if I dare go outside, I can find 7 HUGE wasp nests in various places. And I know more are hiding in the tree.

And they don't just "leave me alone", either. If I go outside, I'll have 4 or 5 chasing after me. Sometimes they will succeed and sting me. As such, I've developed quite a phobia of them over the years.

One time I gave my sister some money to go buy groceries for me because I was afraid of the wasps, and being the kind soul she is, she agreed to help. About an hour later she was calling me. She couldn't get to the door because the wasps kept attacking her.

I'm still waiting for King Kong.

>>8748664
That same Jewish god is also the Islamic god. Everyone just disagrees on how to worship him, who he sent to help us, and what he'll do for you when you die.

But let's not digress.

When I first learned how to fap I went outside to do it and sat on an old couch in the garage. Soon as I started I heard buzzing and suddenly wasps surrounded me. I was stung on my ass, side, and worst middle finger as I was booking it out of there with my pants down. I remember looking at my hand and seeing that fucker latch on and just slam his stinger into my finger multiple times, it was swollen for weeks.

After that since I couldn't move my right hand well I started fapping with my left, and even though it healed long ago I still prefer using my left for whatever reason.

>>8748683
why don't you call a pest control service? you can also buy the spray yourself but bug guys have stronger stuff than we can get

>>8748691
The pleasure of being stung inside

Anyone else get these?

>>8748641
>we'll never find something fatal to all of them that isn't also fatal to us.

But there are things like chocolate that we can tolerate much better than most other mammals and will kill any of them long before it kills us. There's gotta be something like some amount of heavy metal we have in our blood that will kill them but not give us heavy metal poisoning.

>>8748744
They're not all like that, it's in a 1 in 255 chance.

>>8748691
I would never try to fap for the rest of my life after such an experience

>>8748727
It's so shiny...

It's the Queen. All hail the Queen.

Hi,
i know that it's a very special fantasie but every one has is own. I love to lets small insect crawl over my body. Belive me, the feel of having flies walking over my dick is unbelivable. Has Ants and worms and all those i never try before. Think about thousen legs tickling the most sensitive part of your body.

I like to know more about and what you think of Antophilie.
Maybe trade some pics or movies !

regards

>>8748753
Careful with the ants!

>>8748691
Left handed fapping is superior if you're right handed, since you can still use the mouse!

>>8748748
Why take that experience and resolve to never fap again? Just don't be a stupid shit and do it indoors.

>>8748727
Is it possible to befriend an insect?

>ants are fucking annoying
>ants can hurt like hell
>ants gives a disgusting smell if you crush them
You should always stay away from ants. It's for your own safety.

>>8748753
This smells like a pasta, but you are aware that's not actually special at all, right? It's a relatively common fetish.

>>8748772
>ants gives a disgusting smell if you crush them
I have never experienced this. Your nose is something.

>>8748691
This picture hasn't been this relevant in years.

Is that a wasp?

I wish world was back in its early creation stage where there were car sized giant spiders.

The last apartment I lived in had a wasp problem. The fireplace didn't close right or something, so there would be a dozen wasps inside at a given time. Wasn't going to call anybody about it, I don't like using the phone.
I'd generally wait until night, turn on a lamp and watch them crawl out and stretch their wings, and then step on them.

It wasn't that bad, but I think I like the apartment without wasps better

>>8748565
I love you.

>>8748730
The primary problem is that there are a lot of insects out there, and trying to kill them wholesale will only encourage whichever lucky group capable of resisting your genocide to overpopulate and become a new pest. DDT didn't work, Cry toxins are starting to fail and whatever else that might be discovered in the future won't work for long either. You can't get rid of say, flu or cancer for the same reason - your cure will work for a while, but then a few lucky survivors will manage to resist its effects and rebuild the army in a moment's notice, hence why tumors can relapse and there's a new flu panic every year. It's an arms race, we can find better toxins but the insects will find better defenses too.

>>8748566
>>8748677
But centipedes and their ilk aren't that bad, even the house centipede has cute, somewhat downward-pointing venom claws - I can just imagine a house centipede girl trying to do the catgirl "Meow~" gesture with her forcipules instead of her hands, much to the horror of her audience. It's also adorable how they curl around their eggs to protect them, it'd be wonderful to be hugged like that. Symphylans, the much-ignored cousins of centipedes, are much cuter, though - those are tiny, secretive myriapods completely lacking in venom claws, row upon row of long legs, cyanide spray defense and anything else that makes their larger sisters as terrifying as they are, and their mating is a particularly curious affair that involves the female eating the male's spermatophores, storing them in buccal deposits to be used later when she lays her eggs.

>>8749003
So you could wake up one day to see a shy, near-blind, pale white symphylan girl on your bed, trying to rub her flat chest against your penis and clumsily licking the tip in hopes of obtaining your semen and fertilizing her eggs. Of course, when she notices that you aren't sleeping anymore, she would be paralyzed with fear for a moment and let out a cute scream before turning around and scuttling away, only to lose her footing and fall down from your bed (symphylans aren't exactly built for speed.) Needless to say, it'd then be your duty to calm down the shy, embarrassed little girl, convince her that she isn't a hopeless klutz who will never be a bride and gently teach her how to use her body to please a man, watching her timidness slowly vanish as her instincts as a monster girltake over and eventually falling for her charm yourself, ejaculating into her small, warm little mouth and marking her as your wife. You'd then help her lay her eggs, and once she's finished with fertilizing them with the semen she lovingly extracted with you, she'd start sleeping soundly with her human side tightly hugging you and her myriapod half coiled around your precious children. If only ;_;

>>8748566
By the way, the side with the shorter legs is the front for house centipedes - the length increases as the leg count does, this prevents entanglement and gives the centipede the unholy speed it is famed for. Though, if it has heads on both ends, wouldn't it be more of an amphisbaena than Orthrus?

As a side note, this image matches my perception of centipedes - they're larger, more conspicuous and more aggressive, so they'd be large-breasted rapist elder sisters. Millipedes are large but not aggressive, so they're the gentle "Ara ara, ufufu~" type. Symphylans and pauropods are tiny and mostly survive by being unnoticed, hence flat-chested little girls.
