I have a pet ladybug.lol
It was walking across my screen and then jumped down onto my backspace button. I want it to move because I am a horrible typer.
Here are some cool ladybug facts:
In Sweden, folks believe that if a ladybug lands on a young maiden's hand, she will soon be getting married.
If you find a ladybug in your house, count the number of spots and that is how many dollars you will soon receive.
In England, finding a ladybug means that you will have a good harvest.
In France, if you are sick and a ladybug lands on you, when it flies away, it will take the sickness with it.
If a ladybug has more than seven spots, then there will be a famine. If it has less than seven, then there will be a good harvest.
At one time, doctors would mash up ladybugs and put them in a cavity to cure a toothache.
Some people believe that the number of spots on a ladybug indicates how many children you will have.
If you find a ladybug in your house in the winter you will have good luck.

I love them. And I love that some people call them ladybirds.
Our house is always surrounded by ladybugs. Good for my garden.
And I don't feel right when you're gone away

I used to think they were pretty... til I realised they were beetles :eek: fucking polka dotted beetles! Urgh!
Verona??? it's all surmountable

Had I not found this love with you
definitely don't like them when they're flying! :eek:
my friend and I used to have tons of ladybugs as pets. we had a huge glass jar that was their home. (only for a few days at a time, then we released them in to the wild. ) one time we got to take them to school too and tell our classmates about them. then, during recess one boy from our class made holes on the paper that we had over the jar (tissue paper of sort, we used to keep it wet and put a sugarcube on it for our pets. ) and most of the bugs flew away - all around our classroom. some even went to my pockets!!
we never kept them as pets again.
My favorite superstition is if a seagull shits on your head it's good luck. As such I'm constantly hanging out at the local dump.

You bastard!
Their proper names are Ladybird Beetles, so that's where the "Ladybird" comes from. They eat aphids, so yes, they're great to have around the garden too!
I thought at first this was going to be a thread about Rodney Dangerfield's last movie. Whew!
i was outside during my lunch break one day and a pigeon shit on my hand. i was all pissed, because i didn't notice at first and wiped it all over my suit pants.
this was a few months ago, and i can't say anything lucky has happened to be since!
So are you saying I should stop hanging out at the Jersey shore?
"The leads are weak? Fuckin' leads are weak? You're Weak! I've Been in this business 15 years"
"What's your name?"
"FUCK YOU! THAT"S MY NAME!"
the pigeon shitting incident was in the city.
but it would still be good advice to tell someone to stop hanging at the jersey shore. unless of course you are there for funnel cake.
I think ladybugs are the only bug I like. Well, them and lightening bugs.
kevinbeetle: "Yes. When her career washes up and her and Gavin move to Galveston, you will meet her at Hot Topic shopping for a Japanese cheerleader outfit.
Next!"
It means they were rats. And sometimes, rats need to be exterminated. Was the head of a seahorse placed anywhere near the carcasses?

ladybugs are creepy insects in cute disguise.
A few weeks back there were 8 ladybugs one of my kid's bedroom ceiling. I looked like an idiot jumping up and down swatting them, but the kids loved it.
Steve, why were you swatting at them? They don't do any harm.

my sis gave me this cute necklace that has a small ceramic tile wiht a ladybug handpainted on it, she has a matching one too. she figured that way even if one doesn't land on us we still have one anyway lol
Didn't Patrick like them?
