With another embarrassing phobia, you can usually just avoid that thing and no one has to know how faint and panic-stricken it makes you. It’s not a great situation to be a guy who’s terrified of bugs. If instead of being terrified of humans like they should be, squirrels regularly jumped on humans, crawled around people’s bodies while they’re sleeping, and sometimes sunk their teeth into you to suck your blood, I promise you we would all really, really hate squirrels. But if instead of staying outside where they belong, squirrels routinely ended up in your house, on your wall, on your food, and in your bed, we would all hate squirrels. It’s their egregious disregard for boundaries that makes them so despicable. If bugs just followed the rules like everyone else, they really wouldn’t be a big deal. Unlike almost all other creatures, insects A) have no regard for a human’s personal space, B) don’t understand the concept of private property and think it’s okay to enter an indoor place uninvited, and C) apparently didn’t get the memo that humans are at the very top of the food chain, which means no one is supposed to feed on them.

Because a large insect would be a monster and monsters are not normal. You know what’s not normal? A large insect. ![]() ![]() A large bird is an ostrich or something else normal. Picture a large version of any other type of creature.Ī large fish is still a fish. Some might say I’m “overreacting” or “being a little bitch” when I say that bugs make life “basically not worth living,” but I’m not. On what’s not that big a planet, there are 10 quintillion bugs, or 1.5 billion bugs for every living human, and they make up 80% of the world’s species.Īnd unlike an infested apartment or house, we can’t just move-this is our permanent situation. Unfortunately, you can’t be the best planet ever when your clearest defining characteristic is a revolting worldwide bug infestation. It’s stunningly gorgeous, optimally located in space, and it’s perfectly suited for its magnificent array of flora and fauna to live and thrive. The Earth is almost the best planet ever. ![]()
