bluff

My company went for imt (the range simulator, the one like an arcade game) the other day.  I was done with all the shooting and was waiting for the rest in the briefing room. So I just came into the room and sat down and my platoon mate beside me told me. 

'eh just now got one fuckin big mosquito flying around sia, damn scary' 

so I asked. how big?

he showed me how big using the area of his palm as a gauge. I asked again. ' really? so big, you sure it's a mosquito? ' some of the other guys beside were exclaiming that yea, it was indeed that big and well it didn't look like anything else but a mosquito.

so I thought, okay.. interesting..
awhile later.. I noticed what seemed to be some sort of dust ball flying around the area.. it landing on my knee and I took a closer look.. zomg wtf is that. 

giant mosquito? wtf it's body was bout 4 times the size of what you normally see and what was more impressive was it's leg span. probably bout 4-5 cm. I freaked and waved my hand at it and it flew to someone else.. eventually the thing would fly between someone else's legs who would then choose to close them at the very moment.. splat.. dead giant mosquito.

i wondered what would've happened if it had stung anyone. so maybe it wasn't a mosquito after all.. but some weird alien bug..
