I always worry that the garbage disposal won't demolish something as small as a bug. I flush, or throw back outside these days(since we're still in a drought).
Really, did you need to introduce me to a new chocolate source? Unless it has no calories, I don't wanna hear about it! :P

LMAO at "kudos for tenacity".
Maybe it was a stand-in ant. You know, the colony quickly ditched the first dead one and stuck another one in his place while you were shuffling through this week's coupon mailer. Maybe they're all fucking with you and it's an ant conspiracy. Better get George Clooney in there right away. I smell an Oscar.

Dang! That's a tough little ant. I wonder if they're mutating because of all the crap in the water these days.
You reminded me of the chocolate in my nightstand! Thanks!

Poor little tenacious ant-lett.
Wow on the whole guilty chocolate thing. I had no idea. It amazes me (not in a good way) that so much bad crap goes on to which we are completely oblivious. Now I know.

Once, an ant bit my daughter when she was a wee girl. My husband took this very seriously and lit the effin ant bed on fire, while he poured lighter fluid over it he yelled 'teach you fellas to fuck with my family'.....

My ex-husband vacuumed up an ant invasion and returned the vacuum to the closet.
My bare hand discovered the newly relocated ant invasion force an hour later, when I attempted to remove the vacuum for use in another part of the house.
It turns out that vacuuming up ants doesn't hurt them at all... in fact, I believe we may have created the ant's first Disneyland.

This post reminded me of the one lone piece of Green and Blacks chocolate I had stashed in the kitchen. (Notice I said HAD...) Smooth Dark Chocolate w/ Espresso. Yummiest chocolate EVER. Mmmmmmmmmm. I want more. Damn it.

Ants are amazing outside, but definitely squash worthy if I find one inside. Any bug, for that matter. I hate 'em all. Except lady bugs. They're cool.

Ha, an ant on performance enhancing drugs. Good thing you got her. She was a scout. She was gonna come back with reinforcements. I say she by the way because all worker ants are sterile females. Males are usually in short supply, and a queen produces male eggs only when it's time to make more colonies. Males, which have short life spans, die shortly after mating. Sad huh?

First of all, I am NEVER going to f--k with you...EVER/.
Second, watch your back... That ant might be clinging to the side of your garbage disposal, growing, and plotting his revenge. You should pour some acid down there just to be sure he's toast. You have been warned.

That's one badass ant. And now, he's in the sewer somewhere. Juicin up with the crocodiles and pumping iron. I'd learn to pee really quick if I were you, Maria. You don't wanna be spending a second more than you have to with your backside exposed to one of the only ways in (and out) of the sewer.
