Working on an insect collection for my entomology course this semester. Spent some time today in the river and found an awesome little dobsonfly larvae (and a whirligig beetle). Cool little fella! v.redd.it/e15s0mbdoyh41

Whirligig Beetles live on the surface of the water, often in large groups, gyrating as they search for prey. They hunt small invertebrates that fall onto the water's surface or dive underwater to catch other animals. The back two pairs of legs are modified into short, flat paddles. arkive.org/whirligig-beet…

What are the Unrevealed Fauna from Form I-3? Here are my ideas.

So I'm doing something a little different than usual. I saw this form o'er here detailing various forms of parasitic fauna that inhabit the Flesh Pit. https://i.redd.it/3s46bvo1zvn71.jpg Although many of them have not yet been depicted either officially or by fans, leaving it up to imagination! SO...I decided I'd try my hand at theorizing what the heck these creatures could be.

P.S. THIS IS NOT CANON. It is entirely fanmade speculation on my part!

Please do correct me if I'm wrong, or give alternate ideas! I'd be very excited to see what your take on them would be! But meanwhile...let me get started.

---------------------------------------------

Amoebic Organism - A type of large Hydrozoan that has the ability to alter its shape, and moves around using numerous pseudopods that were once its tentacles.

CAUTION: If they are above a certain size and are attempting to eat you, please use your issued weapons on it. This does not kill the Amoebic organism--since they are colonial organisms, they can regenerate and form into smaller amoebas that pose less threat to you.

--------------------------------------------

Aquifer Leech - A type of leech-like organism that live in the superorganism's moisture crops. They infest the bottom of condensation pools, and latch onto the bottom to suck blood from the superorganism.

CAUTION: Do not enter the condensation pools without proper protection. There has been many incidents of them accidentally attaching to people. This causes a cookie-cutter shaped wound, and will bleed out quickly without immediate medical care.

--------------------------------------------

Bristleworm (Vascular) - These are a species of bristleworm which live in the superorganism's vascular system. I.e. within giant arteries and blood pools. They spend their lives swimming in blood, using their tendrils to sift nutrients from them while also seeking out macrobacteria.

CAUTION: Do not pollute any open wound in the superorganism. Chances are that doing so can kill Bristleworms, as their filtration system may feed on something detrimental to it. They're otherwise harmless to humans.

----------------------------------------------

Bristleworm (Ocular) - This species of bristleworm inhabits what is effectively ocular fluid. That is, aqueous humor filled with a variety of nutrients to nourish what may be an eye (unlocated as of yet). However, they get most of t

SERIOUS: This subreddit needs to understand what a "dad joke" really means.

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.

Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.

Just because it's a joke, doesn't mean it's a dad joke

Alot of great jokes get posted here! However just because you have a joke, doesn't mean it's a dad joke.

THIS IS NOT ABOUT NSFW, THIS IS ABOUT LONG JOKES, BLONDE JOKES, SEXUAL JOKES, KNOCK KNOCK JOKES, POLITICAL JOKES, ETC BEING POSTED IN A DAD JOKE SUB

Try telling these sexual jokes that get posted here, to your kid and see how your spouse likes it.. if that goes well, Try telling one of your friends kid about your sex life being like Coca cola, first it was normal, than light and now zero , and see if the parents are OK with you telling their kid the "dad joke"

I'm not even referencing the NSFW, I'm saying Dad jokes are corny, and sometimes painful, not sexual

So check out r/jokes for all types of jokes

r/unclejokes for dirty jokes

r/3amjokes for real weird and alot of OC

r/cleandadjokes If your really sick of seeing not dad jokes in r/dadjokes

Punchline !

Edit: this is not a post about NSFW , This is about jokes, knock knock jokes, blonde jokes, political jokes etc being posted in a dad joke sub

Edit 2: don't touch the thermostat

Ants don’t even have the concept fathers, let alone a good dad joke. Keep r/ants out of my r/dadjokes.

But no, seriously. I understand rule 7 is great to have intelligent discussion, but sometimes it feels like 1 in 10 posts here is someone getting upset about the jokes on this sub. Let the mods deal with it, they regulate the sub.

My 4 year oldest favourit joke, which he very proudly memorized and told all his teachers.

Two muffins are in an oven, one muffin looks at the other and says "is it just me, or is it hot in here?"

Then the other muffin says "AHH, TALKING MUFFIN!!!"

Dropped my best ever dad joke & no one was around to hear it

For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.

I said "hey look, an escaPEA"

No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!

Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies πŸ˜‚
