She’ll soon have enough to build a pyramid!

She’ll soon have enough to build a pyramid scheme!

That’s the worst thing about a group mind…

How about a coupon for insecticide.

That’s because you’re so good at it.

Apparently so is he king, if he’s still alive.

Could have been worse. An omelet pan would have been a real faux pas.

Am I the only one who resents his siblings on Mother’s Day?

I’m sure the mugs are buggy.

And she doesn’t like coffee.

Insects have 6 limbs, these are obviously Insex……☺

It’s a heartfelt “Oh, boy,” every time. If you had to deal with that many kids, you’d want another mug of (Irish) coffee, too. Fill ‘em up.

Now there’s a massive overgeneralization about insects and arthopods in general if there ever was one. In many insect species both sexes die shortly after mating, for example - the female, soon after laying her eggs.

Still, this species of sentient arthopod shouldn’t have a king, given what we read a little while back about the royal wedding… unless there’s some reproductive strategy we’re not being told about in addition. :)

Um…um… ELECTRIC LIGHT BUGS! (Belostomatidae) Female lays her eggs on Daddy’s back! He tends ‘em, he hatches ‘em, he raises ‘em!

Insect Mom reminds me of Queen Slug-for-a-Butt from the “Earthworm Jim” cartoons.

Is the queen’s name “Ida”?

Don’t answer “Ida, no.”
