Default I hate bugs

Stupid plants and flowers and trees that provide habitats for these flying pieces of crap.
Last night I was at my parents' house helping with some yardwork, and I washed my car afterwards. It looked so great! Then on the way home I heard impacts every few seconds...pt...pt...pt...plt.......pt
When I got back to my place, there were little tiny bugs all over the place and some huge ones smashed on the bumper. I cleaned them up with some quik detailer, but it still sucked.

Stupid bugs.

ugh. I hate bugs too. But I think I might hate rain more. Every time I wash, it rains...and it's supposed to be summer.

Yeah, I haven't washed my car in a pretty long time because we get thunder storms every night.

Those little f'ers actually keep me from taking my ride out some nights because I know I'll have to clean my car when I get home.[banghead]

Last year my buddy went on vacation for a month. He came home to a huge nest of catapillars in the trunk of his brand new Focus SVT. Apparently he left hit the trunk release button or something as he was leaving his house for vacation. Atleast the car wasn't stolen.

Bugs suck, but my clear bra makes them a little more tolerable. It's the damn birds that piss me off[rage]. They can't wait to shit on my car when it's clean. I'd swear it's like that old commercial where someone in a Nissan is trying to outrun some birds that are trying to shit on his car...the guy finally pulls into his garage and the birds crash into his house. Ugh!

Bugs are bad, but them damn birds can be a headache as well. They use the roofs of cars like an aircraft carrier landing strip by using their sharp claws as brembo brakes. For God sake do not park under anything they can land on are it will be birdshit bombs away.

What a mess to deal with![banghead]

It's worse when kittens actually climb inside the engine bay.
Much worse.

Before the clearbra, not too many bugs. After the clear bra, I have a bug city on my front end. Do they splat more and stick to the bra?

I'd hate to think about the results of this.

Didn't happen to me, but I've heard horror stories. It's terribly sad, and I doubt the smell ever comes out.

A friend of mine chewed up a family of opposums. He didn't realize it until a ways down the road the smell hit him. Needless to say he didn't have the car for long after that.
