I didn't know they could be pets. A few years ago I went to lunch and there was a beautiful mantis on my side mirror. I drove away thinking he would just fly off. Instead, the mantis started crawling all over my windshield. A wild ride. I managed to find a wooded area, pulled over and got him to jump on a stick. I secured him in what I felt was an appropriately mantisy shrub and drove off.

I still think about that mantis sometimes.
they make great pets! I had three, now two, but when my second is a little bigger I'll move her to a bigger house and get a third of some sort

they're not with us for very long (about a year), but while they're here, they're surprisingly full of character, intelligence, and individuality

This is more of a parenting thread for when your kid is trying to make a fool out of you.
My friends and I are in an 8 team fantasy baseball league started by my friend's twelve year old son and one of his punk friends. The league has a 20 start pitching limit each week and twelve batting slots a day. It's ridiculous, and not even a week in I'm convinced these two kids are laughing at all six of us dads for expending mental energy on participating in this charade league. They're also beating us in matchups.

I think I might rename my team Catter Up in honor of this thread.
