@joshsusser @alice I hope this is true. It ought to be.
@MrInappropriate @joshsusser @alice
I'm so glad someone else can learn this. Actually came to say this about hermit crabs. They truly are extremely helpful to each other like this. Conga line shell swap as they grow.

@alice does it count if the assholery is embedded into the lifecycle? If so I'll raise you the parasitoid wasps, any one of them really.
@renardboy I think it has to be an individual choice for it to count.

@alice Spiders

️@jqmcd aww, I like spiders (mostly).

Humans? Legendary assholes.
Dolphins? Assholes.
Cats are notorious for being jerks.Dogs, ducks, geese, seagulls, crows...all have dickish individuals.
What're some species that would be least likely to solve a crossword puzzle, but still produce a significant percentage of assholes?
Like are there any shrimp out there that are just little fuckers?
@alice Hummingbirds are notorious assholes.

@alice When humans develop on utero, the first thing that develops is the digestive system and the anus.
So we all start out as little assholes. For some, little has changed aside from size.

One summer while I was wearing shorts, I had a big hornet fly over, bite into the side of my thigh and then proceed to sting me like half a dozen times for no apparent reason.
I feel like hornets, wasps, and yellow jackets are all pretty much raging assholes.
@alice You're so 🫦, even hornets want a piece of you!

I've been stung by wasps twice in the last couple weeks, for no fault of my own.Bastard assholes. Hate them, and they me.
-
@apontious totally true.
-
@apontious @alice Oh yeah. We’ve had hummingbird feeder for a long time. There’s plenty of nectar to go around but the birds are super territorial and will chase others off. Real aerial combat.

@catsalad so you're saying it was negging me?

@alice "least likely to solve a crossword puzzle" sounds like slugs, sponges, and if im very honest, lionfishes
Edit: tho upon reflection the only one of those that id describe as "jerk who would never solve a crossword" is the lionfish
-
@catsalad so you're saying it was negging me?
@alice I mean, they are little assholes, so it fits

@alice
Interesting theory, Alice, very interesting theory. -
@alice Are octopi known to be assholes or are they the outliers here? Also pigs are absolutely smart and also assholes.
Having a hard time thinking of assholes on the other end of the spectrum. Bedbugs probably, they're little shitheads but right up there with amoeba on the "stimulus/response and no smarter" scale.

one summer, i was swimming in the Y pool and my hand came up under a dead yellow jacket that i didn't see in time. even dead the stinger embedded in the back of my hand and had to be pulled out with tweezers. i still have a scar.
hornets/wasps/yellow jackets are *SO* assholes, even dead.
