i like cicadas. But they look kind of creepy, and are larger than bugs need be. There is a dead one on my window sill that got baked in the heat. He is magnificent.

my mum lives in spain and the first time i saw one was when i visited her. As phoenix said, they're bigger than bugs need to be. unlike phoenix though, i really don't like them.

One time my girlfriend took me to this butterfly show at a tropical garden, and while i do think the wings are beautiful, the rest of their physical appearance is sickening. It was the horror. Everything with more than 4 legs..... not for me, thanks Quote:

Does it annoy anyone else that there are "does it annoy anyone else" threads?

cicadas run on a non-base 10 time system, though. so no decades....
Nearly all cicadas spend multiple years growing underground as juveniles, before emerging above ground for a short adult stage of several weeks to a few months. The seven periodical cicada species are so named because, in any one location, all of the members of the population are developmentally synchronized—they emerge as adults all at once in the same year. This periodicity is especially amazing because their life cycles are so extremely long—13 or 17 years (both prime numbers). the next emergence in NJ will be in 2013.
