1. A very under-appreciated late 80s album
God bless the Blake Babies

4. Left my kitty litter outside during a move and when I got it back inside the new place it was
filled with earwigs. I hate those suckers.

5. They are disgusting, filthy creatures
And I squish every one I find in the house.

6. We didn't have earwigs in my neighbourhood growing up until about 1981.
I hated them the first time I saw them. Just how obnoixious are those pincers?

7. I don't think the pincers hurt anything
But the little bastards sure like to eat my zinnias.

8. I used to find them in my stacked cooking pots
Didn't that used to turn me off dinner... :puke:

I haven't seen any since I left Ontario, thank goodness.
