if you live in the eastern United States you are begining to experience the sight of trillions of cicadas digging their way out of the ground! How will you deal with the infestation.

Ignore them. I'm sorry but all the local news has been doing is talking about the Cicadas, and its getting ridiculous. They're annoying but thats it. They're quite easily the dumbest thing alive and all thats goign to happen is you'll hear that damn annoying buzzing sound they make, and they'll leave dried up shells covering everything for awhile. Big fucking deal, its not like they're gonna actually do anything of any importance.

I was riding my bike to class today, and while I was going down a steep hill one slammed directly into my left eyebrow. Massive 'thwack' sound. It was... ungood. Lucky it wasn't a cm lower.

I hear they're good eatin'. Once the brood here in FLA comes out (MUCH later on in the year, for some reason...guess the soil stays cool here longer) I'm heading out to the park to collect em up, then I'm going to eat a bucketload of em.


What? People eat fucking oysters! How the shit is THIS gross? Eh? Hmmph. Anyway, good source of protien, and they're crunchy. Also Dead.

Castrate straha and then wave the ugly stick in front of the horde. Should scar them enough to make them leave.

Absolutely nothing, unfortunately. It's as I've said before, only that particular kind of ladybug seems to be affected by the horror that is Windex.

Simple blowtorches like everyone should have made when they were kids especially if they are still flying :twisted:, if not that use any other form of incendiary explosives you can find.

Using the cicadas as an excuse and while everybody else is distracted castrating Straha for the glory of Aiur, I will cause burning destruction to the countryside, eliminating all who stand in my way of turning my old hometown and everything related to it into a no-man's land, because rural areas suck!

... I've never seen a cicada in real life.. I want to hear what they sound like, and not from a video game or a TV show...
