    I used to fuck with ants a lot when I was really young. Dunno why I did it, just did. Until one bit me once and then died while it was still clamped onto my finger. Never again after that. Haha. It hurt so much to pull it off. >.<

    I never did that. Shame on y'all. I'd catch lizards and toads, but I always let them go. If I catch one of the cats torturing a lizard I save it and spank the guilty cat.

    No! I used to catch bumble bees in a jar at a kid though, but I would always give them some nice flowers. I may have inadvertantly suffocated a few of them from time to time.

    You had a snail for your friend ? I thought I was strange. But the death of your snail friend had a happy ending. You got back at the killer and expelled at the same time good for you.

    Peace

    I probably did a little torturing to bugs. I have flushed a few down the drain, squished them and watched them squirm for awhile, I cut a worm in two to watch it re-generate once.

    I used to go to the sink and put more water on the fish we were supposed to cut up, feed ants, pet spiders, charm grasshoppers, catch dragon flies, praying mantis, etc.

    My siblings and I had a lobster race on the back deck before my mother boiled them.

    I pulled a cat's tail or two in my time, but nothing close to torture.

    I can probably count all the mean bug things I did on one hand.

    Killing a peaceful bumblebee by squishing it with a high powerd water hose.
    Catching daddy long legs at the cottage by their legs (but putting them back down after)
    Picking up toads at the cottage and cupping them in my hands to show adults.
    Using a REALLY cheap dollar store magnifying glass and my glasses to see if I could burn an ant with the sun's rays.

    I think thats it. I never did mean stuff.

    I mixed a bunch of household chemicals together and dropped ants into it a few times. Never really seemed to bother them
