Fat Tuesday - Bugs have protein, right?


So something kinda gross happened last week. I don't know what was grosser though, the actual incident or what was running through my mind.
At my work, my boss buys gigantic sacks of popcorn for our clients as a 'thank you'. Occasionally, he'll leave a bag or two here meaning to send it out...but it never makes it because we all have a little bit, then a little bit more to even the bags out, and then we just wind up eating the whole fucking bag. Ah well.
This time, we had some nice white cheddar popcorn which was fresh and delicious. I went and got a cup to scoop out a bit to snack on and piled it up high.
As I was 'drinking' the popcorn (plucking each popped corn out one by one with my tongue like a froggy), I thought "wouldn't it be funny if i strapped this cup on my face and ate it like it was my feedbag and I was a horse?"...I mentioned this to my coworker and he agreed that it was a good idea.

Luckily my brain is fried to the point where I'm like Leonard in Memento...things exit my brain as fast as they enter, so I got busy doing something and forgot.
So now I'm down to the bottom of the cup. The cup was large, it was like a red cup that you'd see at a keg party..there were maybe 10 popcorns left. I lift the cup to my mouth and as I'm tapping the kernels into my mouth, I see this guy mingling around in there.

Yep. A HUGE FUCKING BUG. I feel my eyes widen. I STILL TAP SOME PIECES OF POPCORN INTO MY MOUTH. I'm chewing thinking about how scary and disgusting the bug that I ALMOST ATE and who is STILL IN MY CUP is. I throw my cup to the ground and then still chew...realize I'm eating and then spit out the popcorn...like it makes a difference anyway, I just ate a whole cup of bugcorn so...yeah. My coworker goes "Oh, a cute little bug...let's name him!" as I step on him and say "Yeah, let's name him Squish!". Gross. Imagine I'd strapped that cup to my head? Not knowing the bug was in there?!! The bug part didn't even bother me that much. What bothered me was that I saw the bug and STILL ATE THE POPCORN as I looked at it. I'm a fucking sicko.
