    My favorite past time was ripping off humans' arms and legs so they cannot walk or grab things. I hate how they can walk around and use their arms. Whenever I see a human walking/running around or using his or her arms, I get so anxious and just want to rip them off viciously. Is this normal?

    I have a good friend who loves butterflies. For her 21st birthday, I spent at least a month researching butterflies. I painted a birthday card with 21 of the most beautiful butterflies I found, with their Latin names (and meanings, where I could decipher them). I undertook to learn the word butterfly in as many world languages as I could. I pursued this a little obsessively (even for me) and managed a hundred and nineteen languages. Much of the credit has to go to a linguist at a Finnish university who gave me three quarters of that number because she thought my project was sweet. My favourite is kikli (which is Punjabi) shortly followed by the Norwegian sommerfugl (meaning summer bird). Whichever language it was translated into, it still sounded great. Motyl, farfalla, papillon, mariposa, schmetterling. The biggest regret is that I never got it in Pashto. Time ran out before I tracked it down, and I stopped trying after the birthday.

    Either way, my friend was enchanted by all this butterfly knowledge (and, selfishly, I had fun too because I love learning stuff). I think any normal person would say I went a little overboard. And I agree. But I'd so much rather be weird like me than weird like you.

    Please don't kill any more butterflies.

    Thats just fuckin cruel. This shouldnt float your boat. If you did it to moths thatd be understandable cause they eat my damn clothes. Now, theres a lot of fucked up threads on here, but this just crossed the line.

    Why would you hate butterflies? Really, they are freakin butterflies...They dont do anything but look pretty and fly around. They dont bother or hurt anything...They are just butterflies. Why hate something that hardly has an existence? They are just bloody butterflies!!! I just dont get it. I wouldn't even think about hating something so pointless. Dude, thats a little psychotic...whats going on? Why? This makes no sense. What about dragonflies? You hate those too?

  • Come on people it's a butterfly...

    Seriously how many of you would feel bad about stomping on an ant or spider. You don't really value it's life, it's the cuteness of the butterfly that appeals to your misguided sensibilities.

    I was told that butterflies brings people good luck if one lands on them. As for you, your luck ran out long ago when you start killing them off. That is not normal, what they ever do to you.

    Anonymouschick- lmao. Literally.
    And I see your point christoph45- people don't think twice about killing a spider and many people find those beautiful.. ( not me I hate spiders I would squash one in a heartbeat!)
    But I think butterflies are nothing like spiders they are beautiful and just killing them for no reason is definitely not normal honey. You should get help before you start killing cats or something.

    You cruel arse! What did it ever do to you! Just because it can't fight back! The strong are meant to defend the weak! Not kill them or rip their limbs off!
    You deserve to be quartered!
    (being quartered is a medieval punishment where you limbs are tied to four horses, they pull and rip you apart.)

    Is it normal that you comment made me laugh? It's just the image of a person running around chasing butterflies then cornering them and ripping off their wings haha.

    But seriously dude, leave the butterflies alone ._.

    I'm slightly scared of butterflies- but i'd probably cry if i killed one. No sorry- this is not normal. You might have an unresolved issue that only butterflies bring up in you.

    I hate insects with a slight passion and I hate butterflies as well. But having the urge to kill them isn't really normal I think, lol.

    The whole idea of ripping them up is a little cruel, however, I can't see that its any different to a phobia of Spiders and swatting one of them.

    Who would hate an innocent butterfly? They're so beautiful. Not normal.

    THANK you! This was how I felt... No difference.

    And to the writer/IIN asker:

    I do not think it is unnormal, we all have our pirks... I have always been a little edgy towards other types of animals, and often would do the same things you did to mosquitos.

      Let them live their lovely natural lives. They are harmless but beneficial to ecology. I really hope that you sincerely regret your actions soon.
      I feel so sad for those beautiful beings who suffered at your crual hands.
      I almost feel physically sick to think of a butterfly's wings being cut off. They are big insects and are well-developed enough to feel the awful suffering that you gave them.

  • Butterflies are one of the nicest insects about, why would you do this... :(

    I mean, most insects scare me but butterflies are cute in a funny way. Either way, picking on something so small and innocent, not to mention unable to defend itself, is evil and pathetic.

    Killing is never normal, and less so, if it's done purely for the hell of it.

    come on, it's a butterfly. I personally, hate insects. and if there was one in my house, I would kill it, regardless of whenever it was a butterfly or a spider. insects are insects. and if you look closely on a butterfly, it's only the wings that are pretty. if the wings were blac/grey/white, and their feets were longer, I bet people wouldn't think two times bafore smacking it with a newspaper.
    But I wouldn't go on a butterfly hunt just to kill them. that would be a waste of time. but I'm the kind of person who would kill any animal if I had the chanse, so I'm not sure if I should say if YOU were normal or not.
