I know, I know I’m anthropomorphising an insect…but it really does look like it wandered nearly past the 2nd knuckle, realized it was going The Wrong Way & skedaddled back the way it came from😂. It next just kind of wavered abt, looking lost & kept returning to the finger tip to look for signs or something. “Oops, read that pheromone wrong.”

But, its clever and protective disguise made it look like something
that I might want to eat.

Huh. The movie theatres have been shuttered for so long the popcorn has grown legs. :crazy_face:

Exactly.

The question that everyone is wondering is “what does it taste like?”…

I think everything on this channel is hilarious, but I’m weird, so YMMV
