Ok, so I'm basically scraping the bottom of the barrel when it comes to thread ideas right now, but WHATEVER I'm making a thread about this!

So basically two days ago, I was planning to go to the dollar store and get some candy and wafers and whatever, but when I go to my front door I just see a GIGANTIC, UGLY, DISGUSTING, VILE HOUSE CENTIPEDE, just hanging out on the wall.

I didn't kill it bc I was too lazy and I was already practically out the door ready to walk to the dollar store. BUT DANG WAS IT UGLY

Anyways, have y'all ever seen one? Tell some stories about them here or whatever idk.

Luckily, I never had to deal with something like that... It's kinda funny since you live only about 200 km away from me. Yet another reason for me not to set foot in Ontario, I suppose. 😬

Oh c'mon! Ontario isn't THAT bad (Also I think the centipede problem was just bc my house was crappily built or something like that 😭) but umm, anyways, as I was saying...

I present to you an abridged guide as to why Quebec sucks.

1. They speak French as their primary language. French, as we know, is the language of pretentiousness, responsible for over 70% of 🤓 emojis being used since the invention of emojis. Why, just why be the only city-state in Canada to speak French? It’s akin to the Americans calling football “soccer”, a sort of countercultural bullshit.

2. High taxes, which are inevitably used to subsidize the many sex dungeons forming Quebec’s underground tourist trade.

3. A culture of sadism. Perhaps being located so far north has made the Quebecois so heartless. They even invented winter, causing other provinces like Alberta and Toronto to suffer!

4. Cultural appropriation of English terms like “Le Weekend” or “Baguette loaf”.

5. Violent hockey hooliganism that resulted in the deaths of 1.4 billion Americans last year.

6. Their obsession with incest, and how they view immigration as a threat to their national pastime of ducking one’s cousin in the

7. Trillions of mosquitoes. Some say that this is a result of their bioweapons program gone awry. Those warmongers!

8. Bad drivers. I visited last week and have been grazed several times over the course of a single. Never felt more fear than when I was on the streets of Montreal to see the museum of the Banana! No doubt because they’re roads have more craters than a meth addicts face after a vacation in Columbia.

@waferish PV's reasons to bash on QC are poorly thought out and obviously written by an American who knows nothing about Canada. As an Ontarian, I'm sure you could do way better than him!

P.S I don't hate Ontario or anything. I just need great incentives to motivate me to travel, and you just gave me one not to instead.

@fleurbleue Ok, you know what, sure bring it on!!!!!

1. While I was getting driven to a friend's house I saw this crazy Quebecois driver switching lanes all willy nilly and almost causing an accident!!! Are all the Quebecois this dangerous!?

2. While I was in Quebec city my family spent 1 hour and 30 minutes, stuck on one road because of a traffic jam. By the time we arrived back at the hotel. Our St Hubert chicken meal was already cold!!!! Aww Darn it!!!

3. I have this a Quebecois friend at school who is extremely racist and says racial slurs

4. That same Quebecois friend recommended I watch an anime called "Aki Sora" Really proves PeripheralVision's point no. 6, eh?

5. I know this is the 3rd point with me talking about my Quebecois friend, but he called my math teacher a "Connard" Once! Are all Quebecois people this rude!?

5. I saw a town called Saint Louis du Ha! Ha! on a drive once, but why DID Saint Louis go "Ha Ha"? What a plothole!!!!

6. On the topic of plotholes, why are there so much potholes up in Gatineau!? Like what's up with that?

7. I bought a french celine dion album at a thrift store once, opened it up and it was completely empty, Do you Quebecois people lose stuff that easily!? -_-

8. I was told by my Ontarian friends that you guys apparently eat frog legs, how could you hurt those poor grenouilles like that!?


ALSO quick edit: Just noticed that little message at the bottom talking about incentives and stuff, so umm, idk come visit Ontario, see niagara falls, the giant apple, the parliament building, the cn tower!!! Can YOU find a 553m tall tower in Quebec!?

P.S I don't hate Quebec either, I'm just posting a bunch of nonsense slander bc idk, free will lmao 😭

To be honest I just want to get fleur-sama to hit me. I have seen one or two. I never kill them because I know it is my fault that they are there. They are a sign of insufficient cleanliness, after all.

I've had the same experience with Ontarian drivers, though! You're all easy to recognize with your registration plate on your front bumper in a province that only requires a rear plate.

I guess that's the kind of thing that can happen if you do tourism in a big city using a car in rush hour. We're not responsible for this miserable experience, you are!

waferish said:

Why are you even friends with them if they are racist, though? Anyway, we have a long tradition of kicking the racists out of Quebec into the Canadian wasteland.

waferish said:

Never heard of that but I suppose this is about incest. Anyway, probably another reason they got kicked out.

Are you sure your friend is actually Quebecois and not from France? We Quebecois don't typically use this insult.

Louis fell into the lake and everyone found it very funny (this is totally not a lie).

waferish said:

I don't know, I never went there. Maybe they let the roads rot so Ontarians don't want to wander into Quebec or something.

Someone stole it from the case, obviously. We all know you Ontarians are addicted to Celine Dion like it's literal crack.

Ok tbf we were driving on like a quiet NEIGHBOURHOOD road and there was still traffic, I'd expect traffic on a main road, but SERIOUSLY!? On a quiet neighbourhood road!? Really Quebec!?

Ok, they're not REALLY as racist as I painted them to be 😭 But my friend recorded a video of them saying, well... A certain derogatory word, (Without knowing what it meant before saying it.) So umm yeah.

They moved from Quebec City, though I'm pretty sure their like grandpa is from France itself, (And I also think they're something like 10-20% hispanic) but uhh YEAH, close enough.

I saw one in my bathroom last month at night, sprayed t with the air freshener as I freaked and grabbed the closest thing I could think of to get rid of it, didn't hurt the thing, instead it just ran off. Horrifying things, I don't want to see another one.

I don't remember ever eating potatoes with nacho cheese at all, powder or not.

They are pretty cool actually once you get uses to them. The issue is their speed and Ive had one on a soiler seat once. They hunt other insects so they keep roaches away for example.

No not really, i've only seen milipedes. Small and barely the size of a finger. Kinda fun to poke at it and see it curl.

@x_scolopendra_x sorry for the tag but i think you might be interested in this.

poor thing probably just wanted to be friends with you

House centipedes are known for killing pests in your house that are completely unwelcome. They kill roaches, moths, flies, silverfish, and termites, to name a few. They don't create any type of nests or webs, nor do they eat wood. They rarely bite and they don't carry fatal diseases. House centipedes just want to go after the bugs.

@Freshell How dare OP call these cute goobers ugly



Genuinely cute little faces XD But also they are valuable to have in your home because, just like spiders, they eat pests and house centipedes are very efficient at it. Think of it like this if you have one in your house you have much less other bugs and, unlike spiders, they eat the bodies.

yes thats the most ugliest creepiest thing besides house lizard, roaches and .. snakes..(snake is creepiest of all, I remember small snake in pipe or whatever... me looking straight in snakes eyes and snake looking straight into my eyes... both unable to move... numb... like one falls in love at first sight... dunno for how longer and I dont have memory what happened after that) a very romantic encounter 👀😭 istg it almost killed me. But I've never dealt with it myself always shout for your "MOMMMM' even when you are all .... and immovable inside bathroom she would come and help. Good thing it was not near to bathroom door.

yes thats the most ugliest creepiest thing besides house lizard, roaches and .. snakes..(snake is creepiest of all, I remember small snake in pipe or whatever... me looking straight in snakes eyes and snake looking straight into my eyes... both unable to move... numb... like one falls in love at first sight... dunno for how longer and I dont have memory what happened after that) a very romantic encounter 👀😭 istg it almost killed me.
I've got to see all kinds of creatures so far, but the snakes tend to be harmless over here. I just move them outside with some paper tissue or something. Perhaps yours was also harmless and it was just the shock of your intense "romantic" encounter. Anyway, glad to hear you've got help with dealing with it
Now I just need a snake costume if I want to have a star(r)ing contest

But I've never dealt with it myself always shout for your "MOMMMM' even when you are all .... and immovable inside bathroom she would come and help. Good thing it was not near to bathroom door.

But since I've moved to other place so its been years now 🙏🙏
@fleurbleue

Oh, a specific craving.

I kinda like eating late at night~ XD

@_Cherrymoon_

I didn't know you liked bugs. o.o

@-snowblood-

Hi, Snow!

Snakes are scary. I read somewhere they go to toilets or something.
MY NAME IS POTATO. NICE TO MEET YOU.

Those things are called Silverfish I think, yes I've seen them when I used to live up north, the biggest I saw was about 4cm... they're disgusting, and their legs keep moving after you kill them (don't kill it on the wall)

@Freshell How dare OP call these cute goobers ugly



Genuinely cute little faces XD But also they are valuable to have in your home because, just like spiders, they eat pests and house centipedes are very efficient at it. Think of it like this if you have one in your house you have much less other bugs and, unlike spiders, they eat the bodies.
@Nette Eww, I'd totally take spiders over that freaky thing, I've already got sweaty palms just from looking at that picture.

No not really, i've only seen milipedes. Small and barely the size of a finger. Kinda fun to poke at it and see it curl.

@x_scolopendra_x sorry for the tag but i think you might be interested in this.
@Jakkun
heh

well im generally used to everyone hating scolopendras and centipedes

but in fact they are quite harmless creatures and try not to attack people

yes, i love scolopendras, they seem stylish and cool to me, but tbh... im a little afraid of them too

or to say better not afraid, i just shudder a little when i see them

this is evolutionary, because many insects are poisonous and therefore they cause disgust in people

but you can fight this, people who keep insects can take them in their hands


btw im glad that the little centipede was not harmed, if you see it next time, better carefully take it outside or something like that

also if it was a scutigera coleoptrata, a house centipede, like this
then its very useful because it eat all sorts of small insects

@Neroir cockroaches are a lot worse

they crawl in all kinds of trash,spread germs and eat carrion 🤮

or bed bugs that drink your blood at night

So hate towards centipedes is not justified, their only bad side is their appearance, otherwise they are good animals

When i said milipedes, i was talking about trigoniulus corallinus. It's pretty much harmless and you can touch it just fine. Though i'd rather not touch it and always use gloves before throwing it away.

What in the world is that.... i could easily mistake it as itchy caterpillar. It says it lives around mediterranian. I guess asia is safe from that.

I guess the saving grace is that it's rather small. If it were twice as big i'd run for my life. The poison is said to be harmless to humans, thankfully. And it eats cockroach, that's great. Well i'd still throw it outside if i see it in the house though. But if there were no cockroach in the house i know who the hero is.

@x_scolopendra_x I know cockroaches are way worse. Recently, one flew at me while I was just minding my own business.... dunno why they get so aggressive at night, but unfortunately for centipedes, we live in a world where everything is judged by appearances. Like you said, they look absolutely disgusting... no matter how harmless, they need to disappear

milipedes



@Neroir so a cockroach fell on you but its centipedes who should disappear, thats just unfair...

and btw cockroaches are also ugly

fortunately, i dont have them, but

i have neighbors who, i suppose, very rarely clean their apartment

and one time a cockroach crawled in from them and a centipede (scutigera)

the cockroach was just huge and black, i wouldnt even have a place for it to crawl, honestly i just dont know what the neighbors are doing in the next apartment to me that they have SUCH a thing

no, really, it was gigantic

i killed it and i dont regret

scutigera was also big, i carefully led it into some hole in the wall and never saw it again

@x_scolopendra_x I think cockroaches are kinda cute. In an ideal world, both should disappear, but if I had to choose, definitely the centipedes

So one night the power went out at my place. We're all just hanging out in the living room in the dark. I kept feeling this weird tickle on my skin, figured it was just a mosquito or something buzzing around. Then this thing gets RIGHT up by my ear, so I instinctively smacked it. It drops into my hand and I kid you not it's this MASSIVE red centipede that was literally about to crawl into my ear. Those things are so sneaky.

I have nothing against house centipedes because they're useful when it comes to cleaning the house of other insects but when I find one in my bedroom I put it in another room. No way I sleep with one crawling over me.
To answer your question, I encounter them a few times a year.

I came across that monster once - about the size of a hefty zippo lighter. What kind of holes do you have in your walls that it managed to squeeze through? Please, please, just don't tell me it gnawed them with those razor-sharp, jagged jaws...

One got into my bedroom a few years ago, but it eventually left. A few days later I accidentally killed it by stepping on it in the dark ... with bare feet.

yes scutigeras can be very different from small to large, honestly i dont know what it depends on

What kind of holes do you have in your walls that it managed to squeeze through?
well, my scutigera wasnt very big, when i lived in the countryside there were much bigger scutigeras

Its just that my house is quite new and there really arent any holes in the walls for big insects to crawl through

Thats why i was surprised that such insects crawled in. I know that my neighbors are... not the kind of people you can trust (junkies), but even so to have huge insects in a fairly new house...

What the hell is going on there?
But no - i dont want to know
Im writing this now and i can hear some screams and noise behind the wall, damn, i really want to move to a normal house 💀
