So what? Lots of things are juvenile, what’s wrong with it?
I’m not saying I’d do what the OP did (no interest), but I have no real moreal objections, and even if I did, I think I’d have trouble getting worked up about it.

moreal=moral
Anybody care for a “hot dog”? 
As for the OP, personally I enjoy Praying Mantis v. Black Widow myself…many, many years ago. That fight did not disappoint.
I tried that. It didn’t work. I also trapped a red ant in proximity to a black ant colony anthill and pounded furiously on the ground, with the hopes that the black ants would get seriously pissed off and take it out on the poor schmuck hanging at their doorstep, but I guess being Sunday, it was their day off or something 
You should try getting multiple red ants
It’d work better if you took a black ant to a red ant colony. They tend to get pissed off easier (one time they attacked a rock I dropped in their colony)
WHAT???![]()
From what I remember of my younger years, a whole shovel full of red ants dumped on top of a black ant colony worked fairly well. You can play referee with a magnifying glass.
Remember, the only way to take out a zombie ant is with a tiny headshot.
I have that game. I used to play it all the time. It kinda took the challenge out of it, though, when I figured out two ways to win the game in five minutes.
Princess Bride reference.
Taking enjoyment out of killing something or making something die is sick and immoral. Period. It may be only an ant to you but to that ant it is its life. I can’t control things like driving over ants but I will certainly watch where I walk and avoid them if at all possible.
I enjoy washing my hands, but the sick and immoral thing is that I use antibacterial soap.
Good point. I think I’ll go out and use a flame thrower on stray dogs and cats, because after all, I use antibacterial soap and that was really what Opal was talking about.
(note: flame thrower fueled by hyperbolic oil)
I used to do this as a child when I lived in Hawaii where there are a lot of fire ants. I would take this huge glass jar my mom gave me, shovel some fire ants into it (with a shovel, don’t use your hands!) and then find a black ant pile and do the same.
They would indeed do battle, and it was mesmerizing to watch. The red ants were much bigger but the black ants would group together in threes and fours to take down a single fire ant.
What proved to be more educational was after the initial melee wore down, the ants got busy digging new tunnels, moving their eggs around, etc and they actually picked sides. So after a couple days, there was a clearly delineated “no ants land” in the middle of the jar, and both sets of ants had settled into their routine on either side of the jar, rebuilding their colonies. It was cool.
Now we’re just haggling over the price
Thus proving the bonds of socialist worker solidarity will overcome the propaganda of formic nationalism.
I bid 50 quatloos on the newcomer.
Seriously though, they’re not interested in killing each other (even insofar as ants can ever be described as ‘interested’ in anything). There is no advantage to the nest of having individuals endanger themselves by engaging in skirmishes with any and every foreigner they encounter. It’s more effective if they just ignore each other and continue foraging.
You need ant-agony.

I can (could) win an individual level in 5 minutes, but the whole game? spill!
please?
Raise the purse bid.
