As I was getting breakfast together, I glanced out the window to see the rain and saw something a little unusual. Perched on the window was one of these bad boys.

HO-REE COW!

Needless to say, I left it alone and made no attempts to run it off. The thing probably would've kicked my ass; it was as big as my hand.

It's gone now, which is good because I don't want the dogs to try and eat the poor thing. Apparently it's an endangered species, so I'm considering calling a wildlife organization about it.

You just all looked like you wanted to know more about stag beetles

EDIT: No I didn't! No I didn't!

Once more into the breach, my friends, once more. We'll close the wall with our dead. In peace, nothing so becomes a man as modesty and humility, but when the blast of war blows in our ears, then imitate the action of the tiger, summon up the blood, disguise fair nature with rage and lend the eye a terrible aspect.

I spray bugs with insecticide indiscriminantly.

So, you just left it alone and such? You didn't like catch it and put it in a bottle. That's what I would have done because you could have maybe sold it to some sort of pet store and made some cash.

Some people like big bugs as pets.

I thought about it, but ultimately decided that anything which could eat my face should live a peaceful life roaming free in the backyard.

That was a nice thing to do. If my conscience would have said that I just would've gotten a really really big bottle.

All you people that use insecticide and shoes are freaks. Unless, that is, the shoe is on your foot, at which point you're pretty funny. I like to impale bugs using pins or pencils, or more often just plain punching/kicking/stabbing them with my fingers. I spray termites with boiling water out of my squirt gun!!
