I've laughed about jokes concerning dead babies.
Shame you didn't like the joke, though, taste does differ.
But I think you conflate the joke with somebody harming an animal, it's not proven that anyone did that in this instance.
There is a cicada taped to a surface - that's animal abuse, unless it's a dead one.
To be honest I never would have considered that somebody actually taped a live insect to something, just on feasibility alone, before these comments
It wouldn't be hard to do with a cicada. It probably is a dead one, though.
Yeah, of course it is. That's why your objection comes across as quite bizarre.
Because it could be a live one. We don't actually know.
There aren't much cicadas where I live, so I don't know how hard it is. The last time I heard one was probably when I was eight
