1. A large, flying beetle which looks like a giant, scarier version of a
Bee. It is referred to in the U.K as a 'May
Bug'.
Not many
people seem to remember them as they are
rare in places but in some areas it is a common activity for children to go round swatting them with tennis racquets.
They look insanely scary and there is a myth that they like to get tangled up in your
hair, resulting in the possibility of having to have your
hair shaved off. This is just a story though and they are completely harmless and bare no danger to humans.
They are a known pest to farming, as they leave their larvae on the ground, resulting in crops being damaged.
2. A term used to describe cheap underwear such as boxer shorts which are fitted wrong and give you chafing round your legs.
1. Cockchafer, the correct term for the flying beetle known widely as a May
Bug
2. I bought some cheap underwear from the store the other day... They are
real cockchafers.
