I hate fire ants

[Sandia]

They Suck Ass.

 

[brokenbrainwave]

I agree...

 

[Bindii]

Oh god, don't even mention those things. They have just discovered them in my city...somehow they have managed to be transported to Australia by mistake.

Little Fuckers. The council is spending millions trying to get rid of them. I sure hope it works!

 

[Sandia]

They all crawled up on my leg this morning (I'd gone out into the back yard to take some pics, and I didn't have any socks on.)

They bit the shit out of my ankles.

AND they drive all the good ants away...

 

[SINthysist]

Neighborhood kids. We'll hire Neighborhood kids. Hundreds of them. With magnifying glasses...

 

[Bindii]

So are they as bad as they say???

 

[Hamletmaschine]

I'd rather stick my foot in an actual fire than step on a fire ant mound, if that's any indication.

Oooweee!

Maybe I should think about donating some of my wages to the fire ant campaign.....

 

[ApplesMcgee]

they area a threat...

Part of the problem is they drive off the good ants. The other problem is that they can ill off different animal species by eating their eggs and such.

The horned toad is just about gone here in Texas because of the fire ant.

It just makes me reflect how arrogantly mistaken we are as humans to believe that consciousness is the apex of evolutionary progress when Ant-eaters have stomachs which can cope with all that formic acid.

And, Hamletsmachine, I think I'm going to buy a field for a conference in 2003 or 2004 and I want you as the major speaker on de-canonising academia, {with a special input on the joys of ass-fucking, if you insist, respecting your academic freedoms}.

 

[Hamletmaschine]

Good to see you again, Freescotfr, my friend.

I think if there were more assfucking in academia, it would certainly help. All these academics walking around with their sphincters in knots ... that just can't be good for you.

 

[DustyWolfe]

The bad thing is that alot of people are allergic to them. And you usually get bit by more than one at a time. People die from fire ants, they swarm...

I Wanna Be An Exterminator For Them! The Cars Are Tres Cool

i hate the fine arts too always asking for more tax money

If they say it's like having your legs eaten by acid, then the answer is "yes". When I was a kid, I once ran over a fire ant mound while mowing the lawn. I had jeans on and by the time I realized the ants were inside my clothes, the, uh, damage was done. Fortunately I'm up north now and out of harms way. The occasional blizzard I can handle.

I agree with you absolutely positively Sandia! They are one of two things I hate about Texas. (the other = mosquitoes)

I am alergic to the fire ant bite. I blister when they bite me. They are the pits. You can't get rid of them, you can only encourage them to move somewhere else. They're awful!

I'm so sorry to hear of your mishap with them today. Benedryl is good (both internal and external).
