Waterbugs

When I think of the word waterbug, I always think that this should describe a sweet looking bug that skates on the surface of the water with great grace. Instead it's a bug right out of hell. If you have ever seen ones of these in your house, then you will know what I'm talking about.
They are long--I swear I've seen them as long a my index finger, and their antennas are even longer--just think of a roach on steroids.
When I see one I lose all since of reality, and fear takes over my soul. I'm afraid I would knock an old woman down with a walker just to get out of the room (actually that's an episode on Seinfield.)

I live in Texas which is the wrong state to live in if you're afraid of bugs. Thank God there are two people in my family who are "Bug Killing Super Heroes," but they are not always home.

Again I'm not sure I can post a picture of a water bug, since I can hardly stand to look at one. So here is a picture of the roach like bug in one of my favorite movies (and the only animated movie I like) Wall-e.
He was a good pet for Wall-e.

Ok, well here goes, and by the way they can fly too. I'm not sure why they are packaged, though I know they eat them overseas.
