Don't caterpillars turn thier cells to mush when they turn into butterflys?
Yeah, but I don't think it works with a grinder.
However, apparently caterpillars retain memories from their caterpillar form when in butterfly form! That's pretty cool.
Bro, the whole process of going from caterpillar-> goo->butterfly creeps me out.
I’m sure it is fascinating. But also, nope.
Very fair point.
My friends never seen a butterfly on grinder yet, so I think you're right.
Seriously though, the whole memory retention thing is amazing
They don’t completely turn to goo, structures are already there in caterpillar form. https://youtu.be/4RaCURU6A2o
Cool video
It certifies my lifelong belief that butterflies love ass to ass!
Unlike the human centipede…
We need more studies to be sure.
