A horrid big brown beetle that comes out in mid may in europe and the UK. their real name is a cockchafer, maybug is a nick name, also some northern england nicknames are billy witch and wang beetle.

they are attracted to light like all other flying things they are big about size of a 2 pound coin 10p coin, 3cm, brown shell with a sort of tail the shape of a stinger.

They slam into windows to get their next hit on their drug, light, scary for girls but cant do anyway just a badass beetle. make a weird low tone buzz when they fly.

there are rumours that they like landing in hair get tangled up and layeggs, but these rumours are not proven, so no need to panic.

how to counter them? well turn light off and shut window or because its hot turn light of and draw curtains.

also dogs eat them. there are becoming extict but there are peak times where there high numbers of maybugs every 30 years or so.

"May bug" (noun) is one of the commonly used names for the cockchafer, a large brown beetle (normally 2-3cm in length as adults) native to Europe. These often emerge as adults during or slightly before May, and are considered crop pests, due to their appetite for vegetation.
The cockchafer has a well-established history as a crop pest, and was put in trial in France in 1320, where the beetles were accused of damaging crops. The court ruled that the beetles did in fact damage the crops and were ordered to leave the area, which the beetles ignored, thus proving that the cockchafer is one of many beetles that is above the law.
Cockchafers feed on plant matter and are not venomous and do not sting. While cockchafers can fly, they are clumsy, leading them to crash into surfaces, including people and windows. Their long legs feature small spines and hooks that help them grip plants stems, but often lead them to become tangled in hair. Contrary to urban myth that cockchafers crash into people in order to attack them or lay eggs in their hair, cockchafers are generally not aggressive towards humans and much prefer to lay eggs in soil. As they are attracted to light, they can frequently be seen around porch lights between Late and early July.

"The May bugs are ruining our vegetable garden."
"The Court finds these May bugs guilty of property damage and loitering, and demands that they evacuate this farm immediately and without compensation for relocation. Failure to do so will result in extermination by fly-swatter."

church hurt 

church hurt is where you experience a degree of distance, pain, or judgement from your church community. Essentially, you are just unable to “find your place”. This is prevalent in the Christian community, but can be extended to other religions.
Now that I am an adult I am beginning to heal from the church hurt that was inflicted on me as a child.

Stealthie 

when you're holding up your phone and making faces at it, as though you are taking a selfie, but you're really taking a picture of the person across from you or the wall or anything else that seems interesting but you don't want to be caught dead taking a picture of.

This action is often made more convincing by wiggling the eyebrows or opening the mouth, to pretend you're trying to get a Snapchat filter to work.
FRIEND A: "Did you just take a stealthie of me?"

FRIEND B (turning phone around): "no I was just using snapchat's new filter, see?"
