    Centipedes are the absolute worst of the worst in terms of disturbing insects. I can’t even look at one without my brain vividly simulating the way all of those crispy little legs would feel clinging along the length of my arm.

        I saw a video once of a giant centipede devouring a live mouse, and it still fucks with me every time I think of it. I still remember that mouse’s eyes.

      🤓uhm ackhtually centipedes are not insects but are members of a different group of arthropods called Myriapods, along with everyone’s favorite detritivores the millipedes

      edit for additional infodumping: their venom injecting apparatuses are modified legs called forcipules or toxicognaths, and they are the only known animal with such features.

      Depending on your definition of ‘bun’, the centipede could be the bun here.
