It's a blue bubble, Theta.... :P

How can a Theta win anyway - omega or Z maybe could have a chance, but not Theta. 3D is also not enough for a win, you have to enter the fourth dimension.

I_wanna_Blue can only win if the final post appears on a blue background and not a green one - a form of roulette with a 50 / 50 chance of winning. 8)

That double post means you have now been disqualified and can no longer win. So, therefore, I win!

Putting 'Winner' as your signature in no way means you win this thread. Neither does merely claiming to win, as everyone seems to try that eventually.

Special marks for effort to Kip though, for trying to scare off the competition with disgusting pictures. :P

Is that our sun? What did you do ... spray paint the entire thing blue?

Yeah, you would do such a thing. :P

Mopani worms are very popular in parts of South Africa, and are apparently quite nutritious.

Never heard of anyone eating crickets.

I'm not saying I'll never eat bugs, because the way things are going, I may well have to;

But it will take a lot of doing to get me to eat bugs.

It's a mental thing. 8O

Meanwhile, I hope I can still win this thread without eating bugs. :D

We like eating Moreton Bay bugs here in Oz. But they're not insects; they're slipper lobsters. Does that count?

Either way, I still win.

Yes, I'm with you; I like to think of crabs, shrimp, lobsters etc. as sea bugs. :D

Doesn't help that there are actually such things as sea spiders. 8O

I'm not sure whether you can eat them or not, but it always sort of struck me as odd that sea cucumbers are called "cucumbers".

Maybe I was just a strange kid, but for some reason I expected that they'd be a little more, um... cucumber-ish, y'know? 8O

Does anyone know why they're called that?

It seems that whoever named them thought they resembled cucumbers more than anything else he could think of at the time...

Apparently they are eaten in China (but then what isn't on the menu there?) :roll:

They have the ability to liquefy their body so they can squeeze (literally "pour" ) into small cracks and then re-solidify their collagen structure again so they can feel secure in the crevice.
