It may not be a bad word per say, but it still is a strong word, it may be offensive to some people, if you look at what hell really means, it is an awful state of self imposed regret and an eternity of being too late and endless what ifs. Forever wishing one could of done better. If anything, I could see the word being a bit strong in nature. Take my two-sense how you will. Anyway, I actually think I want to keep carpenter ants and have a live stream of them building their colony. Is anyone else thinking this idea is cool?

It depends on how you use the word. I was sure he meant WTH.

I refilled her test tube with water yesterday,she was so active. I let her crawl around before putting her back in the tube.

That's great news, I hope she is fertile and healthy. I also hope you have a lot of luck with your ants! :)

Great! Just be sure to hibernate her if it gets cold enough for that in your area.
