@Takanuva Albert: "Alright, this happened when I was Nineteen, before my two week coma, and before I found my dad. Back then, my eyesight was terrible. I had 20/100 vision back then, which means that I had to be within 20 feet to see things that normal people can see at 100 feet. I had to wear special glasses to see, and I lost them when I had to leave home. (Long story, I'll tell you later.) Anyways, back home I had to walk Everywhere, you know? Cars were just explosive temporary cover on the road, too many gunshots and boom! You follow me?"
Will make dad jokes for friends.@Takanuva Albert: "So, I was walking near the vicinity of Grayditch. It was a community on the outskirts of Washington, D.C. Which after more than 200 years of wasteland devastation and neglect, it was reduced to being the home for two families and a scientist with a special scientific project. More on that later, when I got there, this kid by the name of Bryan Wilks came running by and asked for my help. Because his town was overrun by Giant Fire Ants. You know what Ants are, right?"
Will make dad jokes for friends.-Takes a deep breath- @Takanuva Albert: [Entomologist] "Ants are eusocial insects of the family Formicidae and, along with the related wasps and bees, belong to the order Hymenoptera. Ants evolved from wasp-like ancestors in the Cretaceous period, about 99 million years ago, and diversified after the rise of flowering plants. More than 12,500 of an estimated total of 22,000 species have been classified. They are easily identified by their elbowed antennae and the distinctive node-like structure that forms their slender waists.
Ants form colonies that range in size from a few dozen predatory individuals living in small natural cavities to highly organised colonies that may occupy large territories and consist of millions of individuals. Larger colonies consist mostly of sterile, wingless females forming castes of "workers", "soldiers", or other specialised groups. Nearly all ant colonies also have some fertile males called "drones" and one or more fertile females called "queens". The colonies are described as superorganisms because the ants appear to operate as a unified entity, collectively working together to support the colony.
Ants had colonised almost every landmass on Earth. The only places lacking indigenous ants are Antarctica and a few remote or inhospitable islands. Ants thrive in most ecosystems and may form 15–25% of the terrestrial animal biomass. Their success in so many environments has been attributed to their social organisation and their ability to modify habitats, tap resources, and defend themselves. Their long co-evolution with other species has led to mimetic, commensal, parasitic, and mutualistic relationships.
Ant societies have division of labour, communication between individuals, and an ability to solve complex problems. These parallels with human societies have long been an inspiration and subject of study. Many human cultures make use of ants in cuisine, medication, and rituals. Some species are valued in their role as biological pest control agents. Their ability to exploit resources may bring ants into conflict with humans, however, as they can damage crops and invade buildings. Some species, such as the red imported fire ant (Solenopsis invicta), are regarded as invasive species, establishing themselves in areas where they have been introduced accidentally." -Beat- "Sorry, I'm a bit of a insect nerd." I stole this from Wikipedia and I'm mostly not sorry.

I found one, and got set on fire. Do you have insects that breath fire where you're from? Because that hurt like a mother, and I didn't have any more powerful then a hunting rifle and a tire iron. On the bright side, I had something to compare to when I got hurt."

@Albert: Sure Albert. I've shared enough of my adventures, why not hear some of yours?
