Description CRAWLING ON MY SKIN! In a harmless, slightly ticklish kind of way. Good ol' dated references.

But seriously, who doesn't like swarms of things? It's like I have that bee power from Bioshock, except instead of lots of science-magic angry bees stinging fiery venom, I have several large harmless beetles that will clumsily bonk into my foes. MWAHAHA! June beetles are technically a kind of scarab though, so that's gotta be worth something. They were pretty scary in The Mummy.

Sorry the picture's kinda blurry, it's not a very new camera at all, so it has the traditional digital camera problems with low-light situations. Using the flash resulted in terrible flash lighting, and june beetles are nocturnal, so this is the best I could do. It's also hard to get good pictures of your own hand.

Yep, that's my own hand, and those are all real beetles, no edits or tricks. I like bugs.

The title of the leader of the Phrase Sayer's Club isn't President! It's something that would be said far less commonly.

Yeah, they grip you tight after a while and really dig those tiny hooks in.

It's good to know I'm not the only person who's handled june beetles, by the way. Everybody seems to think they bite or something.
