Are you in touch with your inner insect?

Asked by Zen (7748points) April 9th, 2009

I think I am a bee. What are you? Everyone always asks about trees and animals, and everybody wants to be a dolphin or panda. What about your inner insect?

LOL! Hmmm…....i’m no hard worker, so i can’t be an ant, and bees die when they defend themselves, so i’m not a bee either. I don’t know… :/

But they make honey, and are fat yet fly.

JellyB's avatar

@Zen Hehe! Fat? :D Yes, well, honey is good. I still don’t know though, i can’t seem to identify with any insect….

I have a little Praying Mantis in me. I can be very predatory when the mood hits but I don’t fancy biting the heads off of my mates while we’re in the middle of doing the wild thing.

@Bluefreedom And you got the religious thing going too, eh?

I’d have to go with the Bombardier Beetle. I’d want it to come out of shooters attached to my wrists like Spiderman.

Zen's avatar

@Lupin Awesome. Spidey rules.

I am a praying mantis but I am not proud of it.

Zen's avatar

@GAMBIT , meet @Bluefreedom. Don’t kill him when you’re done, please.

GAMBIT's avatar

@Zen – I suppose we both know what our capabilities are.

Zen's avatar

Remember: with great power comes great responsibility.

@Zen -We learn to yield. We learn to care. We learn to enjoy life and to help our neighbors any way we can and from the words of King Solomon “fear God and keep his commandments”. Thanks Zen.

Zen's avatar

@GAMBIT Your welcome. (I think?)

GAMBIT's avatar

@Zen – as you said one must remember that any gifts that we have comes with a responsibility to use them in a positive way. We all have talents every single one of us so lets use them in a good way. It is great for some to be ants or bees or butterflies. That is why I thanked you becuase you talked about responsibility.

Did someone say insects? I’d like to be cool like the devil mantis in my avatar, but I’m afraid I’m much more like the grasshopper. Too much playtime, and then scrambling around to fit some work in at the last minute.

Zen's avatar

@GAMBIT Alrighty then.

Zen's avatar

Uh oh @MissAusten – watch out boys. Camouflage or something fast: you know what happens with the female of the species.

Bumblebee, an ex gave it to me:
the bumblebee is no slave
it’s not greedy and will only carry as much gold as to still gun it’s motor
happy to be alive
the bumblebee shares it’s treasures
it rarely stings or bites
somehow it flies, doesn’t look like it should or could but it does

Zen's avatar

@VzzBzz I wasn’t surprised, but thanks for the note.

VzzBzz's avatar

@Zen: It’s all I’ve got to come up with because aside from that, I don’t feel like any kind of creature inside at all. I was told once during a lucid experience that my “spirit animal” is a snail… ick.

Zen's avatar

Oy! I hope you stung the bastard who said that. (Guess not: you’d be dead.)
