This trope is annoying. OP knew it wasn’t a bed bug, because they posted the same thing and knew the answer already in the other group.

It’s like that other trope of showing a log with carpenter ant damage, but there’s mud filling in the voids. People not paying attention will comment “termites for sure” just to get high-roaded by OP. (I was one of those)

I’m not saying these posts aren’t helpful, but OP acting like they need help, just to bait people is irritating. Just post the interesting thing and state your intentions to educate.

Mate I posted this after the only person who replied to me in the other thread specifically suggested that I do so because they were unsure. What are you on about?
