They lose some points by being huge sissies about bats, but they gain some back by referencing the greatest Looney Tunes episode ever.

Why did you evolve to be so silly, bats? The hammer headed one is cute, though.

I once wrote a high school term paper on bats and their inherent bad rap... You have greater chance of getting rabies from a cute little chipmunk than a bat.

Also, guano? Makes for a good milkshake... Ok, i made that part up.

You poor fool! Wait till you see those goddamn bats ..

I don't care what anyone says, bats are some of the cutest mofo's in the animal kingdom.

Bats are awesome, they keep the nasty skeeter numbers low. Here's the cutest lil bat you will see all day Little Drac

Meh. link is slow as falk to load.

Growing up outside of Atlanta, there were a lot of little bats in the summertime. My friend and I would throw little pebbles up in the air which the bats mistook for bugs. They'd swoop down low enough that we could whack them with badmitton rackets. I think our single night record was twenty-three dead bats. They're were always more though -- nasty, petulant creatures with diseases and nasty bites. We finally figured out that our neighbor up the street had a bunch of bat boxes where the little buggers were breeding like rats. We smashed them up and burned them while the neighbor was gone on vacation. After that, thankfully, the bats pretty much disappeared.

I'm so phobic of getting bats tangled in my hair that I had to put on a baseball cap just to click the link. And no, I don't know what possessed me to even click the link.

These are the bats we're talking about, or the kids?

Awesome. I like to watch the bats around my house at night. Sometimes if I leave early enough in the morning I can still catch a few getting their last meal of the night.

Myself, I rather like the bat.
It's not a mouse, it's not a rat.
It has no feathers, yet has wings
It's quite inaudible when it sings,
It zig zags through the evening air
And never lands on ladies' hair,
A fact of which men spend their lives
Attempting to convince their wives

-Ogden Nash

Crewmannumber6: I put up a bat house on a pole behind my house last year. Still waiting to see if any moved in.

Wait until dusk and do what spentmiles did, except with granola and no rackets.

clap. clap. clap. clap. clap.

Hats ... for bats.

I gave up after 5 minutes.

are those jpgs like 5mb each?

Suddenly, there was a terrible roar all around us, and the sky was full of what looked like huge bats, all swooping and screeching and diving around the car, and a voice was screaming: Holy Jesus. What are these goddamn animals?

//seriously, I love bats. There is a bat that lives right near me (I think in the slum house's garage that is rotting and falling down-next door) that I have named Alfred. They don't spray for mosquitos in my city so he helps keep them away from my backyard.

Bring six Seattle Mariners with you. Bats will be useless.

We killed it.

Cherrydog, spentmiles is a professional troll.

Had my cousin come down to visit me. We were walking home from a restaurant in the evening, and she remarked that it was strange how many birds there were out so late. I told her they were bats, out hunting bugs, and she didn't believe me. So I pointed out that no bird in the world swoops around like that and she stared for a few seconds, trying to prove me wrong.

Then she shrieked, knelt down on the pavement, and covered her head, absolutely terrified because ohmigod there are BATS here.

We were seriously about a minute from my apartment when this happened, and it took ten minutes for me to convince her to move. She was a wreck afterwards, and refused to go outside within like three hours of sundown for the rest of her visit. Phobias are weird, no point in reasoning with them.

I rather like to consider him a professional story teller. you should read his blog, fine fine stuff there.

Subby must be as afraid of bats as this dumb broad and her horrible website.

Well, now that you called me on it I'll have to admit I find his postings very creative and amusing; if you didn't know better though, You can see how his words would infuriate some, but that's his game, so please, carry on.

We can't stop here, this is....oh....late to the party apparently.

csb indeed. But a question remains unanswered: Did you fark her?

Nice bites there spentmiles.

When we were young, my brother and I had to spend the summer in my Uncle's shack in the woods in southern Oklahoma. It was right on a creek that had some decent fish in it. Well one evening we were down fishing in the creek at dusk when my brother cast out his lure, and it was caught in mid-air by a bat. He fought it briefly before we both said 'screw it!' , threw down our fishing poles, and ran for the shack.

The bat was gone the next morning, I guess it managed to get the hook out of it's mouth.

I love everything about bats. Darkly cute, socially beneficial, strange lives... Hell, even Batman is my favorite fictional character.

What are these people on about? This one is adorable.



It is a fennec-style bat.

/And so fluffy

I have a little brown bat stuffed &mounted in a glass display case hanging on my wall. He sorta looks like photo #6. It was a gift from my wife-to-be.

I love bats! Bats are awesome.

Owls eat bats. Owls are jerks.
