    It is cute when they curl up into a ball.

      Shit, it happened again. I’ll get it right next time, I promise.

      What did you do to make them curl up into a ball, David?

      David? What did you do?

    Fun fact: woodlice are terrestrial isopods, meaning they share a class (Malacostraca, the second-largest crustacean class after Insecta) with the decapods like crabs, shrimp, etc. Orders Isopoda and Decapoda are far away within the class, but they’re still in there!

      So are you saying we can eat woodlice like we eat crabs?

        I mean I’ve read that the giant marine isopod Bathynomus giganteus is popular in Vietnam, so probably – although there’s probably a good reason beyond scarcity that it’s not a widely popular delicacy. I might be concerned about bioaccumulated heavy metals in terrestrial ones, they’d be highly inefficient to prepare, and I’ve never heard of any culture that eats them. But I’m sure it’d be doable. Just to what end, you know?

        “All corners of the globe” and “pre-date the ice age”, obviously, but what’s number three?

    any female born after 1983 can’t cook… all they know is leaf litter, curl they shells up, scuttling, lay eggs, eat rotten plant matter and lie

    I was 8 when I learnt thoroughly that not everyone wants to switch place with woodlice for a day when waiting for the school bus. 06:45 during an autumn storm would be much better as a woodlouse underneath comfy foliage.
