If I had to ask my boss for permission to use the restroom all the time, I'd probably respond the same way.
hmmm. I think I'd go with centipedes. For sheer creep-factor. (more than 8 legs is just excessive.)
Calm down Satan
If I were really satan, I'd reverse the shrink ray and make centipedes large enough to ride. I bet they'd add it to the geneva conventions as a war crime.
Just the fact you thought of this confirms your identity
Ha, fat chance! Your centipede would be discretely drone striked very quickly and the jumbo-wumbo gun research would be used to fuel a new division of the military industrial complex before NATO ever got a chance to add it to the no-no list.
Any large enough insect is relatively easy to kill, you just need a Buick.
I LOVE centipedes and all million of their legs
Are centipedes that scary
For me, a centipede would be less scary
"Permission to use the restroom", like what? What's he going to do, say no? I can take a shit in your trash can if you'd prefer. I'm not asking for permission, I'm informing you that I'm going to the restroom, deal with it.
i have distinct memories of one of my early teachers having read a book to the class about a kid who peed themselves because they weren't allowed to go to the bathroom, and from that day on we always had that one comfort in her classes: you're always free to go to the bathroom, no need to ask (just inform that you're heading to the toilet).
Reminds me of the video with the two beetles fighting until one gets yeeted into the shadow realm
I was remembering a different video, but this one was also funny:
Stag Beetle Throws Girlfriend Out Of Tree | Life | BBC Earth
Jump to 2:55 for the bit that the title is referring to
But the hurling habit dies hard

I think the original video has been set to private.
Several videos have been removed (including one for being violent?).
The original came from twitter, but has since been removed (I think, maybe x is just bad), but the DailyMail did a news article on it (ugh) and happen to still host the video.
