Goodbye Mama Gary
Though I never knew you at all
You had the grace to hold yourself
While those around you crawled
They crawled out of the woodwork
And they whispered into your brain
They set you on the bonsai tree
And they made you change your name

And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a stinkbug in marketing
Never knowing who to cling to
When the rain set in
And I would have liked to have known you
But I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did

Are they even fertilized (if they are just green with no babby inside then they aren't). You may have allowed her to die and ended her genetic line with your negligence.

post your burial ceremony suggestions itt

right now little gary is just upside down on my desk, untouched from the photo.

i could put her at the bottom of the tree, or hide the carcass somewhere in the leaves to rot

i cant really bury it since all the rocks at the base are glued together, unless i bury it outside

my coworker that wanted to kill it has agreed to do a eulogy

I've found 4 scattered eggs that have fallen in between some of the leaves. They are still bright green and look just like before, but my googling made me think that they should hatch like 4-5 days after being pooped out by mama bug

Not sure if they will hatch or not. :(

Adult shield bugs are attractive insects, easily characterised by their flatish oval or five-sided shield shape (the pentatomids). They are often called stink bugs because when threatened, some species produce a pungent liquid from special glands near their hind legs (poke one and then sniff your hand). - Royal Entomological Society

Same thing essentially

We may have finally found unobtainium but I will never find eywa.

You could probably preserve Gary pretty easy in just a little vial of cheap plain hand sanitizer. Then you could keep it on your desk and remember your shame every day like you loving should.

create a funeral pyre outside (small one) and cremate her while your co-worker gives a lovely eulogy

It's relatively inexpensive to have Gary immortalized in a paperweight.

And I think its the right thing to do.

Now I'm going to sing the Perry Mason theme

If you want to preserve Gary the pro way, stick a needle through the right-hand side of the scutellum. That's the triangular structure between the wings.



Gary should be placed about 3/4 to the top of the pin.
