Summer of the Cicada.
 

Every 13 years. Every. 13. Years.

Where has my childhood gone?
I remember catching them, playing with them, squishing them...now?
I'm too terrified to leave my house at night because I can hear them everywhere.

Somewhere in this 13 years, I developed an irrational fear of insects.
Cicadas?
Seems they're no exception.

I hate them.
They're beautiful.
But I hate them.

Discuss: Cicadas.
Topic: Cicadas.
How I feel: I want to cry.
How you feel: Blaine, you're one sexy studbeast.
How I respond: O bby, you're so sweet~ ;9
How you respond: ;D


Question!
I wonder why the Cicadas cry?

Urggh... those freaking loud insects!
I've had many a sleepless night thanks to those little buggers!

Blaine, you're one sexy studbeast.

Ugh, there're loads of cicadas around where I live. Most people don't know what they are, though. Whenever I hear them and go "Ugh, the cicadas are out again" people say things like "Oh, is that what's making that noise?" and then sometimes they ask what they look like.

I've learned to live with them. I have an intense urge to shoot them when they wake me up in the mornings, though. They're worse than my alarm clock!

Ashur: O bby, you're so sweet~ ;9


BUT YES, they're inexorably loud. It's riduculous. T:
And they keep landing on me.
If they keep it up, I will kill them all with my rage.

I never seen them D8

We get Locusts every 7 years I think and this year they are back, I heard them x3 But I never seen cicada =(

I live smack dab in the middle of Florida. We have just about everything here... and we have it pretty much all the time.

DK, this is a nasty bum cicada(s).

I live in TN, Reyoki, and we've had tornados, floods, heavy snow, just about everything, too. AND NOW THESE BUGGERS.

Your current avi ROCKS, Blaine.
Ehrm... that's it. *scuttles off*

THANK YOU. I'm actually really into it. e me
I wanna draw iiitt. Or get arts of it. T:

AND OH RIGHT, cicadas. They're way too noisy.

I take it your an Alabaman.

Me? Nope.
Tennessean.
Helluva lot better than Alabama.

Ahhh- lucky you. Alabama will be getting the first big swarm in over a decade. Coarse that means Tennesee might get some aswell.

Swarm of Cicada? Oh, most definitely. Every 13 years. c:

No, worse than usual. For Alabama anyway. Cicada never bothered me, much.

AGH, I trust you. xD
Are you from Alabama? :D

But now, I don't want to leave my house even more. orz

No, I'm a Mississippian.
