    It's pretty big, maybe 6 or 7 inches.
    Never seen anything like this here!

  2. I've seen those before, but I don't know the name. They're pretty harmless, though, but I'd make sure they don't lay eggs in my ear.

    We call those "colon cleansers" over here. Quite useful companions for at-home health care, if you're feeling constipated, just slip one or two of those guys in for complete relief.

    But actually I was going to say it looks like some kind of stinkbug, and I was right!
