Now i can't sleep!!!111!

can someone please tell me what it is? i splattered it with a boot. excessively juicy.

*edit* and no, i don't mean the quarter 😛

I think you are actually the bug and have taken over HN's account in an attempt to lull us into a false sense of security.

I for one welcome our new insect overlords. 😉

It was just a matter of time.....I mean with the opposable thumbs and all.............
 
damn, reading that labeled pic - flesh piercing hook, ramming plate, bite/gnaw regulators, surveillance orb (not even a frickin' eye??), opposable thumbs (2 on each claw; the better to grab you with), flesh ripping barbs

i'm a goner if there's anymore 🙁
 
:laugh: @ the FAQ
Q: What other names are Potato Bugs known by?
A: The common Potato Bug is also known as the Jerusalem cricket. Our Native American friends call him ?Woh-tzi-Neh? (Old Bald-Headed Man). In Latin America, he?s ?niña de la tierra? (child of the earth). Other names include: Satan's fetus, the Devil's spawn, the Devil's child, the Devil's baby, the Devil's fetus, evil fetus, bald devil fetus, bald fetus of Satan, and earth fetus.

Q: Do potato bugs bite?
A: They gnaw.

Q: Why are potato bugs so ugly and frightening? Why do they look part human? Where did they come from?
A: The most widely held belief is that God didn?t create potato bugs. It was Satan?s work. And amongst evolutionists and non-religious types, the consensus is that potato bugs came from outer space.

Q: I have potato bugs in my vegetable garden. How can I rid myself of these pesky critters?
A: Drench your entire yard with gasoline and set it ablaze. Once the fire has burned itself out and the ground has cooled, cultivate the soil to a depth of seven feet, saturate the area with battery acid and top the surface with gasoline. After a few minutes, most of the surviving potato bugs, now irritated, will burrow up for air. Set the yard on fire again, and let it burn itself out. The remaining bugs should be crisped. Add water. Only then, and only maybe, will you rid yourself of potato bugs.

Q: When I sleep, I have recurring dreams about potato bugs. Nightmares, really. Should I be concerned?
A: No. We all have nightmares about potato bugs. Try not to drink alcohol right before bed.

Q: Does alcohol consumption increase the chances of potato bug nightmares?
A: No. Potato bugs are drawn to the smell of alcohol, so when you drink late at night they?re more likely to infest your bed. They may gnaw your cheeks while you sleep, trying to get at the smell of the alcohol on your breath.

Q: I have never even seen a potato bug. Where would I be likely to find one?
A: Consider yourself very lucky, click away from this website, and forget you ever asked that question.

Q: Do potato bugs eat potatoes?
A: Potato bugs eat your cheeks.

Q: I caught a potato bug in a field behind my house, and now its my pet. How do I sex it?
A: Just e-mail us your name and address, and we?ll notify the proper authorities about you. You should be locked up.
