I'm more surprised and O_o than rage'y at that.
It's something I do not fully understand.

It... that kinda' reasoning is very simple. Someone you respect and trust (whether you're justified in respecting and trusting that person, especially in relation to a particular technical field, like medicine, is a different discussion) says a thing. You trust that person -- and trust that they have done the research on the subject -- so you believe that thing.

It's... something I'm fairly sure most of us here do at some point or another. People don't have time to learn the intricacies of every technical field they need to know about or make decisions regarding, so they find (people who claim to be) experts and place their trust in them. There is fundamentally no difference between following celebrity endorsements and listening to your doctor (without doing your own research, or getting a second opinion, which a tremendous amount of people do regularly, and often for the better). S'just considerably more likely the doctor knows what the hell they're talking about, heh.

They definitely have chocolate covered bugs of varying sorts -- I know I've seen (like, in person, and watched people eat) ant and grasshopper -- but I'm not aware of if they do or do not have frozen varieties.

Yeah, spiders are cool, and very useful and friendly.
I love looking up at the ceiling and seeing all my friends, as they stare back at me with their multitudes of eyes, stretching their mandibles and rubbing their legs together.

... waiting for you to sleep, so that they may feast and frolic upon your unconscious flesh. By not killing each and every one of them, you have damned yourself to a nightly arachnid orgy amongst your hairs and across your skin and clothes.

It wants your delicious bad luck and is willing to go through the skull to get it.

People have! WZ2.1k comes up occasionally in discussion. It's a pretty great game. There's been a couple MP games ran, iirc, though not much more than one or two.

You are not, no. If a youtube link isn't accompanied by some form of explanation, or later conversation doesn't shine some light on what the video in question is, I don't even think of following them.

The best links, perhaps, are ones like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t5jw3T3Jy70&feature=youtu.be

I've never heard anyone around here speak positively of the taste of raccoon, though...

Doesn't exactly stop J from eating it, be that her wont, but racoon's not a common dish in these parts from what I've seen. They make decent enough hats, but not terribly good food.
