weegegirl 2 #1 May 26, 2004 Wrongway and I just went to DC for the weekend for my buddy's wedding. They are having that Cicada outbreak that they have every 17 years. Well... WW and my brother-in-law had a field day with me because I HATE BUGS!!! They were everywhere... by the thousands... and so loud! They sounded like a car alarm. I shrieked more times then a nun in a panty raid. Check out these pictures! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bkdice 0 #2 May 26, 2004 hahahahaha!!! Yup - they are everywhere in Northern Virginia. I remember 17 years ago, when I first saw them. We had moved here from NY and had never heard of them. At least they don't bite - but they are very annoying. Always sounds like there is a flying saucer outside your car / house / office. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

colintri 0 #13 May 26, 2004 Ah, I remember these scary looking bugs when I was a young kid. When my older brother and I were little kids, he'd used to take dead skins from trees and sneak up on me and put it on me. I always freak out every time when he did it. Bastard. They do look gross but they're perfectly harmless. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My brother-in-law was telling me that people eat them.... and I didn't know whether to believe him or not. That is sooooo grose! Home Depot was having a contest to see who could find the biggest cicada! There was like a $500 prize or something. People are going nutzo! hahaha!
