they kinda drink them actually
Ok but “bug” has multiple meanings, and almost nobody means “hemiptera” when they say it. More commonly, it’s any terrestrial arthropod. Arachnids are bugs. Centipedes are definitely bugs.
Heck, there’s a broader definition that basically includes all arthropods. “Moreton bay bugs” are a popular food this time of year. And they’re a kind of lobster.
The ocean is quite literally lousy with sea lice. They’ve even got rolly-pollies down there.
Does “bug” have a technical definition? If so then it’s news to me and everyone who uses it to mean pretty much any small invertebrate (or microorganism, or software defect).
Nah bugs are any little land creepy crawly, maybe an even slugs and snails.

what kind of beer do spiders drink? bug lite
By “Mentally Healthy” @EAT_ROAD…:
bad joke, spiders are not bugs only insects of the order hemiptera classified as bugs and spiders aren’t even insects. maybe if you drank fewer beer and spent more time studying you would know that but it’s your life

they eat bugs you big dumb bitch
Aren’t spiders insects?
No. Insects have 6 legs, spiders have 8.
Are they in some separate category?
They’re separate biological classes.
So they’re about as far apart as you are from a reptile, bird or fish.Yes, they’re arachnids.

Both insects and arachnids are arthropods.

Even when they pretend to have 6?
Or when 2 legs fall off?
