What kinda insects we talking about here?

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Water spiders, gnats, etc. You know, bugs you see in a boathouse or in the bathrooms around water.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

We don't really have gnats here in Seattle. It's great.

[–] SpaceNoodle 3 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

So we only get water spiders and etc.?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 hours ago

I've never seen those here, either. And they don't sound like much of a pest since they wouldn't be flying around biting you.

Why would you assume that I spend time on boathouses or aquatic bathrooms?

[–] [email protected] 17 points 23 hours ago

Lol, I assume everyone has been camping near a lake or something. That's what I meant by bathrooms on water. If you have ever been by a pier, look underneath, that's a good tell as well.

You're in a thread asking about boat related stuff

[–] SpaceNoodle 5 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah, asking questions about boats.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

You haven't asked a single question about boats, only about insects.

[–] SpaceNoodle 1 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah, about insects that live on and around boats.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Right, so why are you surprised that boat related context is the answer to your question

[–] SpaceNoodle -1 points 12 hours ago

I'm not surprised, I'm asking why someone would assume I hang around boats a lot when I'm asking questions about what's around boats.

A Space Noodle is a relative of a Pool Noodle, is it not?

Eh, water navy, space navy, close enough; I could see how some would get confused

[–] SpaceNoodle 1 points 19 hours ago

Even further off.
