Seeing that fly at me would EVACUATE my bowels.

Bro... Idk what they're called but in Vegas we have the beetles that look like OP's post but about 2 inches and all brown. Looked over in my small one person bathroom at work during a shift. And this fucker was 2feet from me with the wings up ready to fly. My face said scream, but my mouth made silence, as I flailed away with my pants around my ankles.... super fun times
