wow, was that a misplaced and unnecessary barb. srsly, granted I didn't add a ton of value to the thread, but if a simple gesture of gratitude for a needed moment of human levity results in downvotes and attempts at judgy put-downs, something's wrong here. please look at my comment history before deciding who belongs on what forum. I love this place and will accept whatever further karma hits come for mentioning karm…

I think it is just tradition (as on many sites) to downvote comments about karma. Telling you to go to reddit was rude though.

thanks, yeah, I know -- and yes, agreed.

Crab eating ants. We'll kill the ones that eat us and eat the ones we kill.

Crabs are already quite susceptible to ants, due to ants being small enough to swarm and attack the joints and gaps of the crab's carapace.

So are humans, we have nostrils and other holes
