| Seriously.. are there cute bugs? I was just posting and said... "Cute as a bug", why do I say that? Bugs are not cute. Do you know of any cute bugs? Which also brings me to.. snug as a bug in rug, now that is makes sense. Ok well it kinda makes sense. Maybe it does because I have only had a few hours sleep that it does but I think it does. So anyway, snug as a bug in a rug.... I figured the bug gets caught in the rug, so there he/she is... snug. Am I alone in this? Does it make sense to anyone else why I or anyone else says "cute as a bug"?

Thanks, Cindy, I saw that you were online and hoped you would post. I was really giving this some thought. I find that I ask some silly questions when there is lack of sleep involved. Remember the cereal and milk calorie question or mile in a car, same as mile when you walk? Ladybugs are cute. I guess Ive never thought of a butterfly as a bug, I dont know what I thought it was...... I will keep saying it then, cute as a bug!

| LOL you are too funny! I think bugs are pretty gross, not many (if any) cute ones! What about cute as the Dickens? A girl at work says this a lot! What the heck is a dickens? LOL

| Bugs are NOT cute in reality. They are ONLY cute when they stay on paper created by ink or lead. They are amazingly adorable when they stay inside your TV box. They are so colourful and lovely when they are stitched into clothing and printed onto accessories. Butterflies are beautiful. I don't mind them except when I think about the stages BEFORE they become so beautiful and tolerable. Then it grosses me out . Sure enough, in grade school, I used to LOVE caterpillers and thought lady bugs were adorable. It might be all thanks to my kindergarten teacher. She kept an insect aquarium in the classroom. We'd bring in our favourite little "bug(ger)" of the day. Snails used to be one of my most favourite things. Couldn't decide if I loved snails more or caterpillers. I let either of them crawl all over my arms. The snails leave a slimey trail that dries and turns crusty and glue-like. Then one day, I woke up. I realized the worms that gross me out and the slugs I hate so much are no different from the snails I loved. After seeing more than a few crushed snail shells with slimey body still inside, it slowly started to turn my stomach. Having caterpillers and cocoon-y things dangle and drop from a tree hanging a little too low on the sidewalk on the way home from school, and dropping into my ice cream cup, well, I mean, those were wake up calls. Finding a dead bee coated in cheese nicely browned in the Hawaiin pizza delivered to my home and on my plate half eaten, with me about to fork at that coated bee mistaking it as pineapple I so love... that was enough to leave me traumatized for life. Then in my young adult years, finding a huge frozen moth broken up in my half litre housemade sesame gelato from a popular gelato establishment in town, well, I'm glad I've been self-trained to look before I put things into my mouth even while I'm distracted by the television. No, I will not be in denial. I fear bugs enough to hate them even more. Oh, did I mention the time during high school when I was enjoying the mattress-on-floor life style (felt almost like camping) and didn't want a real bed. I woke up one morning sleeping my side, to a HUGE spider just ONE inch from my face ON my pillow?! Well, it could have been 2 inches, but heck, it might as well have been ON my face. Who knows if it did crawl across me before I woke up to it. It was thick and black! Thick for my standards. It's no surprise I went shopping with my parents soon afterwards and picked up a loft bed. I wanted to be as far away from the ground as possible. I know, they walk on walls and "climb". I very much prefer "cute as a button" over "cute as a bug" but I've never really seen a button that did it for me... but I guess that's neither here nor there. |

| All living things have their own beauty. The idiom "cute as a bug". If something is as cute as a bug, it is sweet and endearing!

| Some might find this cute. But it was HUGE to me and pretty much spoiled my appetite. |
