The Tanzanian Giant Millipede
Many millipedes are quite docile and may safely be kept as pets and handled without risk of injury. The giant African millipede (
Archispirostreptus gigas) is a common pet. These can be found at pet stores for reasonable prices. Sometimes very similar millipedes can be bought under the name
Lophostreptus rutilans but in most cases it is just
Archispirostreptus gigas. With the proper caging and feeding, pet millipedes can live up to about 7 years and grow to be as long as
15 inches.
Some kind of adorable spider!
The praying mantis! Not all that cute, but deffinately cool.
The cuttlefish! Nature's master of disguise and relative to other sneaky tentacled ambush predators, the squid and octopus. Highly intelligent and adorable, these little guys should be called
cuddlefish. Some species are poisonous, but most can be an interesting addition to a salt water acquarium.
What kind of creepy-crawlies do you enjoy, or at least find interesting?

I was about to fall asleep one night and then I heard a cricket chirp. It was somewhere in my basement.
I spent 2 hours tracking the fucker until I found it hiding inside of metal tube in my closet.
Did I smash the fucker?
Oh God yes.
Don't do that again.
Edit: Referring to yonder slug.
Why would any guy mantis ever want to have sex?
"Man did you hear what happened to Jim at prom?"
"No dude what?"
"Julie sucked his head"
"No way! Awesome"
