We were sat down having dinner the other night when seemingly out of nowhere, this fella dropped in to partake in the 'side salad' which consisted mainly of shredded cabbage coated in a sickly sweet mayonnaise.
Now usually, these grasshoppers / crickets are eaten as a fried snack, available from handcarts on streets all over Thailand so I guess there was a sense of irony in his actions. Ironical grasshoppers aren't something you see everyday so I felt the need to go full-on David Attenborough and took my first 'nature' video.
As the people I was having dinner with weren't as impressed as I was, he suddenly legged it and disappeared just as fast as he had appeared. Either he got scared or, most likely, he wasn't impressed with the sickly, sweet mayo either.....
My new series, 'Life of a Grasshopper' will be starting on Netflix in May....

LOL - We get some guests around here too! I like your point about the irony.

Thanks much. All are well! I think as soon as you put live scorpions in your mouth and milk venomous snake, your transformation into the snowflake version of Papa-Pepper will be nearing completion, LOL. Thanks again!

"here we see this lone grasshopper gregariously looking to partake in the eating habits of a large and peculiar group of mammals in their natural habitat" this was the voice over I heard in my head anyway...

The world will, as we speak, be lining itself with inverted egg boxes to counteract such reverberations ;-)

Try as they might!
"Most egg cartons I see are made out of Styrofoam or cardboard. If you want to look up the absorption coefficients of Styrofoam and cardboard, I’m sure they’re available on the internet. You know you’ll see that they’re almost zero.
Is it a diffuser? No, if it is, okay let’s just assume that it is a diffuser, it’s a diffuser of one frequency. Because all the well depths where the eggs go are the same so you have the same frequency being diffused, that’s no good. You need a wide range of frequencies that are diffused. Why would you want one frequency coming back at you all the time through diffusion? You wouldn’t, so egg cartons are a waste of time."
I stole this from some other prick which makes it a tad less dickheaded, 🤔 🤗
I will not be SILE..................

Hey, @nathen007.
I don't know. It kind of looks like to me he was chowing down pretty good. I mean, just how much can a grasshopper eat? :)
From the street noise, it sounds like you were outside eating, which takes care of how the critter made its way into the restaurant (he didn't have to), and I was waiting for of a reaction from your dinner mates than I heard. I guess that must have happened prior to the video.
I guess it's a good thing you weren't impressed with the salad dressing, since I'm guessing you didn't try to finish your salad after that. Or maybe you're more adventurous than I give you credit. :)

Its just footpath(sidewalk) which has been taken over by street food vendors so yes we were outside. This is normal here. We eat most meals sat at tabkes on the footpath on the side of the road lol
