I find that pretty interesting, really...

I was always outdoors when I was smaller, and I remember coming across slug mating quite a few times (the yellow slugs, anyways -- not the leopard looking ones). Yeah, I stopped to watch, too. Not 'cause I'm a pervert or anything. I just find stuff like that interesting.

I couldn't tell you exactly what that blue thing is, though. I don't think that kind live around here -- at least I've never seen 'em. *shrug*

Should've done something, but I've done it enough

Really? Cause here the kind you never see is the banana ones. I haven't seen them mate though. Thank goodness...

Do the banana slugs really bite eachother's thingies off? (I read at a website that they did)

I dunno, I watched the movie. I guess they do.

I've never seen it in real life, though -- I could only pay attention for about 20 minutes or so before I was like 'God, you guys have a boring sex life!'

Is that a baby slug? In the second picture in the second link? Right to the left of where the ooze meets their bodies?

Several species of slugs are known to do that. After mating, its much easier and efficient to bite off their sexual organs and grow new ones than it is to retract them.

There's a King on a throne with his eyes torn out.
There's a Blind Man looking for a shadow of doubt.
There's a Rich Man sleeping on a golden bed.
There's a Skeleton choking on a crust of bread.

We are in agreement in that... I have centipedes in my bathroom from time to time, and they are the only bug that scares me. Freaky little things.

Your common garden slugs also have a "dagger of love" - a hardened piece of chitinous material that they will sometimes stab each other with repeatedly during intercourse.

Slug fucking is wieerrrd.

I remember one time, I was out at my sister's house babysitting. I was half asleep, when I noticed something in the corner of my eye. Well, right about then a really long centipede skittered straight across the living room floor, as nonchalant as could be, as if he owned the place or something.

I wasn't quite sure what to make of it. I just sort of sat there and stared at it. Freaked me the hell out.

Centipedes are kinda cool in a whole "freaky gonna eat my face" thing.

The bug that really freaks me out is earwigs . Even saying the name fills my mind with images of body-cavity-infestation terrors

Maggots are the ones that get me. Little white waxy squirming wormy things that are not even full bugs yet, normally clumping in writhing masses.
