Bug isn’t even a technical term. Lobsters are considered bugs!
That’s a great point you big dumb bitch.
Yeah I always assumed “bug” was like “vegetable” — it’s a colloquial, not taxonomic, term. But there are “true bugs” so maybe the analogy isn’t completely sound.
(And tomato is absolutely a vegetable.)
They’re culinary vegetables. My wife likes to say it like this: intelligence is knowing that a tomato is a fruit, wisdom is knowing that it doesn’t go in a fruit salad.
Uhm lmao
The number one rule for pedants is: if you’re going to be pedantic, you’d damn well better be correct.

- there is no scientific definition of “bug”. the entire category is a social construct much like vegetables
- this person’s first sentence defined spiderd as insects and the second sentence said they weren’t
They are missing some punctuation where it was desperately needed but imagine a comma or period after " spiders are not bugs" and reread.
ah yes, thank you, my bad
All good my dude… It didn’t make sense to me on my first past either so I figured that it might have gotten you in the same spot too. Just glad to see the community is not throwing down votes at ya anymore, because your comment just felt like an honest misread. Cheers.
