But he’s a good provider.

A non-vegetarian foods eating plant. Will them vegans eats this plant?

Yeah, keep your trap shut.

And a glutton, too.

Further down the bar, the pitcher plant is filling up on beer.

Be nice, Venus, and he might share his catch with you.

… Umm… you got this fly… between… your teeth…

This is nasty.

Yeesh! What do they see in each other?

Another happy motorcyclist.

I think he’s trying to show off. Most can only catch one at a time.

What a Buzz kill.

And he has never heard of sharing. Red Flag! Red Flag!

suddenly Seymour didn’t seem like such a catch

I feel trapped in this relationship!

And he ate all the appetizers!

That date has a huge fly in the ointment. Or many huge flies.

Didn’t need to see that over breakfast.

Shouldn’t there be soup somewhere?

Wow, time really flies, doesn’t it.

He hit the Megabugs.

hey, buddy⠄⠄⠄ your flyᵗʳᵃᵖ is open

one less bug to fly

Flys open!

Friendly note to anyone who wants to get a Venus fly trap! They only grow in one tiny little area, so treat yours right. A big mistake people make is thinking they have to eat bugs to survive, not true! They can survive off of distilled water (never tap! rain water is okay, though I suppose it will depend on where you live) and proper soil.

They are fun! And will trap fruit flies that can find their way to your other plants! They are very sensitive though, so only handle them when absolutely necessary.

Good luck!
