The Drunken Rant Thread

The best part: I was actually drunk when I started it.

shit balls.

You know when they're coming for you. The giant glassine wings will be obvious and trembling in in the distance, sun glistening off the bright chitinous appendages. You know that you don't have long, cause their prismatic eyes don't miss much, especially with eyes that large...

You see, insects once ruled this planet rather openly, a long time ago when the land was barely colonized, and the first mosses and ferns were drifting up out of the saltwater into the bright sun. The insects were king, because they had no one else to compete with. Nothing else dared wander out of the water, they weren't ready yet.

500 million years later the insects with their complex social societies have arrived at an impasse, humans, and indeed vertebrates in general, are in the way of their total domination of the planet. In secrecy and in deep underground colonies they are growing. The insect form is mutable, but has some drawbacks; most arthropods would fail to breath with the size these ones have reached. They have overcome that limitation.

The divine vision of the maya spoke not of a human motivated apocalypse in the year we will call 2012 AD. Rather, they foretold the coming of these anchient kinds, returning from their exile to once again rule to the lands of this planet.

You will not have a second warning.

You can run, but you cannot hide for long.
