I may have to do one for my insect brothers as well.

Ambush_Bug · 07-31-2001, 08:39 AM

OK, I just had to do this... straight off the top of my head, folks.

Signs you are one of the mantis warriors:

Underground living is where it’s at, and you immensely respect Bilbo Baggins as the only humanoid with any sense in homes.
You have no sisters, just a whole pile of brothers and one mother.
You laugh at the concept of claustrophobia.
You don’t sleep. EVER.
Jetpacks are for wussies that can’t climb sheer vertical walls.
You wonder how humans lived for so long, having such poor reflexes.
You have great respect for roaches; they’ve so far out-lived, out-toughed, or out-smarted everything in the known universe.
Alcohol doesn’t do squat to you—you prefer 112-proof honey.
Walls are for walking, too.
So are ceilings.

I bet stormy satisfies everything on your list, Dax...

Stormdancer · 08-01-2001, 11:48 AM

Hah! You freak, Ambush... ;p

And no, I don't fulfill all of the things on that list.

There's at least two or three spellings of gryffoun that I don't know off the top of my crest. And I haven't printed out the list.

It didn't mention trilling and purring when happy, though...

Ambush_Bug · 08-01-2001, 12:27 PM

Next item on both lists: Humans tend to laugh at us when we try to get into armor... that is until we pounce and rip them to shreds.

Good to see ya, Stormy.

I didn't know that insects pounced....

XRogue · 08-01-2001, 07:25 PM

Some of them do. Mantises, for example. Particularly mantises who have jetpacks.

Ambush_Bug · 08-01-2001, 09:56 PM

Rawwwr.

Hunting spiders, like the wolf spider (ok, not really an insect, but does fall into the broader category of "bug". (Note the small 'b', Ambush

) )

Mantises do, sort of. They don't jump with all their feet, but look at those arms in action and tell me it's not a pounce.

Wasps hunting prey pounce on their victims, sting them, and lay an egg in the paralyzed insect for the young wasp to eat.

Ant lions. The ones that dig a pit in the sand and wait at the bottom for something to come along, slip in and can't climb out? They pounce. And man, have they got the teeth for it.

Lots more, I'm sure.
