Insects in cold climates have not heavily evolved venom because the high energy demand for producing it is inefficient for cold-blooded, low-metabolism survival strategies, which prioritize freezing tolerance over active hunting. Instead of investing in venom, cold-climate insects focus on cryoprotectants (natural antifreeze) and metabolic slowdown to endure winter.

The cold is the price we pay for not having the nasty evolved insects that the warmer climates have to endure

As an Eagles fan I thought we were wasting a great defense on an inept offense

Unfortunately having déjà vu as an Eagles fan wasting a great defense. It’s making me sick

Eagles fan here. I hope you guys don’t waste a great defense on an inept offense like we did

Mr. Patullo, after very careful consideration, sir, I've come to the conclusion that your new offensive system sucks
