Cockroaches. They run around shitting everywhere.

They are fast.

They can fly at you.

They are disgusting.

You swat them, they shit a bit of guts out and live again.

You stamp on them, they shit even more guts out and live again.

You chop off their fucking heads, shit comes out AND they can still live until they starve to death.

I have had to get rapidly accustomed to these motherfuckers.

It wasn't until I was 24 (last April) that I saw my first cockroach (in a really classy place in London.) I didn't see my second until two weeks ago in Japan. Now I see them all the fucking time in Taipei. They're ugly, ugly insects and I don't want to get anywhere fucking near them.

Mosquitos. I mean wasps, cockroaches and spiders piss me off as well but they don't fucking do anything to you if you just stand still. They're just there. But Mosquitos? They come and make you itch which wouldn't be bad if there was only one of them. But there's always 5 of them trying to eat you at the same time!

Chimps get my vote. A lot of the animals here are simply 'made that way' and can be expected to act like douches constantly while as chimps have the ability to be happy and friendly one minute then flip the fuck out, rip out your eyes and bone the socket*.

*may not have ever actually happened, but I wouldn't put it past them.

The very first time I played Morrowind (a few weeks ago in fact) about 2 hours in I was starting to explore and one of these beasts jumped me from above. I didn't have a clue what was going on until I was down to around half health. I eventually looked up and quite literally shouted out "holy fuck".

What proceded then was a vicious battle which unfortunately led to my death. To top it all off, I'd forgotten to save the whole time I'd played (not even any autosaves). Now, whenever I see them I'm sure to snipe them from afar, with a few sword slashes to their corpse for good measure.

I remember using the boots of blinding speed and running across half the map, de-equipping the boots and then finding about fifteen of them on my ass. Easily one of the most annoying enemies in any video game.

earwig, inside joke, a FUCKING RABBIT, barnacles, a FUCKING SHARK, inside joke..

if you have the inside jokes explained to you, they're not going to be funny to you.

What kind of "Fucking" rabbit and what kind of "Fucking" shark? What makes them more of a douchebag animal than other species? Sorry I'm not up on all the inside jokes.

African Honey Badger.

Will take on any animal, regardless of size. Eats honey and bee larvae by thrusting its head into a beehive and munching away, impervious to the stings. Will attack a male lion by going for the testicles. In a recorded instance, stole a rat from a puff adder and ate it, went for the snake, passed out from the venom, then woke up and proceeded to finish eating the snake.

Also plays the vuvuzela. (Okay, I made that part up)

:lol

It's just a rabbit and just a shark. A random picture of a bunny and a random picture of a shark. What species of rabbit or shark holds absolutely no significance. And there's no inside joke.

Yeah. I can't go outside without getting accosted by mosquitoes (and other bugs), and it pisses me off. I'd spent so much more time outside if I didn't get bit constantly

Their larvae form is a huge food source for other organisms. They are actually are a very important part of the food chain.

Eats carrion and humans, also cannabilistic for bonus points.

Its saliva is frequently blood-tinged, because its teeth are almost completely covered by gingival tissue that is naturally lacerated during feeding. This creates an ideal culture for the virulent bacteria that live in its mouth... Copious amounts of red saliva that the Komodo dragons produce help to lubricate the food, but swallowing is still a long process (15–20 minutes to swallow a goat). Komodo dragons may attempt to speed up the process by ramming the carcass against a tree to force it down its throat, sometimes ramming so forcefully that the tree is knocked down.

After digestion, the Komodo dragon regurgitates a mass of horns, hair, and teeth known as the gastric pellet, which is covered in malodorous mucus.

Dragons of equal size may resort to "wrestling". Losers usually retreat though they have been known to be killed and eaten by victors.

Occasionally they consume humans and human corpses, digging up bodies from shallow graves....The Komodo dragon has also been observed intentionally startling a pregnant deer in the hopes of a miscarriage whose remains they can eat, a technique that has also been observed in large African predators.

Mating occurs between May and August, with the eggs laid in September. During this period, males fight over females and territory by grappling with one another upon their hind legs with the loser eventually being pinned to the ground. These males may vomit or defecate when preparing for the fight.

When the young must approach a kill, they roll around in fecal matter and rest in the intestines of eviscerated animals to deter these hungry adults.

That's nasty.

Spiders.

I once slept for a couple of hours, and one almost the size of my palm was on my back underneath a beachtowel. Just fucking staying still. Probably thinking evil fucking thoughts. Sinister as fuck.
It's on purpose, I swear. The smaller ones seem to get a kick out of using their web to lower right in front of your face...

Flies (including mosquitoes, which are just a type of fly) are an immensely important part of the food chain. Lots of animals eat flies as a staple of their diet. Some, like colonies of bats, can consume massive quantities of flies (up to 500k pounds IIRC) per night. I suppose we don't need the bats either, right?

Oh, and maggots are really the best parts of flies. They get laid in carcasses, get born and then clean up the carcass rapidly and efficiently. In the process of consuming the carcass, their waste provide nutrients for the plants and fungus around them. Which are in turn a vital part of the food chain for other animals, and oh yeah, breathing for us oxygen types. Maggots are great redistributors of organic matter.

So, yeah, go flies.

I just saw a gif which makes snapping turtles the douchebag animal of the day for me :(


warning, it's quite gruesome (though no humans involved, just a mouse...), so I won't put it in tags

http://imgur.com/G5HLB.gif


the gif also shows that mice are the most awesome animal of the day...


...until a douchebag snapping turtle strikes AGAIN



boy do I not want to go near them or accidental step on them in the water D:

that is so sad : [

but apart from going straight for the head this has to be one of the more humane ways to kill a mouse for eating

Ripping it in half and watching its intestines trail behind it as it swims away?

The whole process takes like 5 seconds. Not like he spent a few minutes playing around with a drowning, ripped-up mouse first.
