Ok now I'm curious about what the fuck the two centipedes I found in my basement that I thought were fucking were actually doing. They sure looked like they were fucking.
They were wrestling. Go back to bed.
wrestling 😏
"Step-centipede, what are you doing?!"
I don't know how to boil the water ~~~
Maybe they were those queer centipedes that fuck in person. Degenerates
They do it just for fun! Gross.
Don't humanize centipedes! That leads to strange and disturbing things...
too late
Too late
Too Late
TOO LATE
There are way, way more "centipede monster girl" image results... DuckDuckGo/Google
Caterpillar girls are fine though.
Eww, making it a head tail is so much worse!
Just makes me wonder if it's a centipede girl or a centipede that ate a girl's brain and puppets her body around.
Someone has already centipedized humans. This is the next step.
Don’t humanize centipedes
I'M DOING MY PART!
Just gonna take a quick stroll over to rule34.xxx and see what there is to see...
Edit: Jesus fuck 638 results. We just needed ONE to confirm the rule, but 638?!
When two centipedes ~~love each other~~ are both really hungry...
A disappointingly large proportion of the general population appears to be unable to tell the difference between centipedes and millipedes. Is it possible that the "centipedes" you saw were actually millipedes? If so, they may have been "fucking", or at least the millipede equivalent of it.
Additionally, it appears that this "fact" is actually wrong (big surprise, huh?). Many species of centipede do have courtship strategies that involve males and females meeting up. The sexes may even employ various forms of physical touch as part of the process. So, it's certainly possible that the critters you saw where centipedes courting each other.
Centipedes see other Centipedes as food, which is why they reproduce this way.
Source: made it up, but it seems logical. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
The last time I left sperm packets on the ground I was branded a "pervert" and a "freak" and told to leave the restaurant immediately before they called the police.
You need to dress it up as geocaching.
Sooo are centipedes like fruit flies and not engage in any real form of sexual selection, or is the female going around judging the fuck out of every jizz pile she encounters?
"Mmm-mm, look at that poor viscosity, obviously from a low-quality male. This one on the other hand: deep color, firm texture, nice and sticky... clearly produced by a male with the superior genes I want to pass along to my offspring."
I'm upset no ones chimed in with a really technical breakdown and linked some studies
The DoorDash approach to sexual reproduction. Fantastic.
Oh boy, the jar arrived!
And a complementary turkey baster, too!
have you seen a centipede? completely unfuckable
Woah there buddy, please don't fetish shame.
Taking “hit it and quit it” to the next level.
Skeet and yeet.
So THAT'S how Vance & his wife have kids: he leaves her some fresh sperm in the couch
damn, the lore thickens
Huh, guess I'm a centipede then.
what do you mean by this WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THIS
I'm assuming he's male, but no females are collecting his packets.
your honor it's not baby trapping he left those condoms out on purpose
Relationship goals.
I'm pretty sure this is how the junkies in my town reproduce.
