Our lesson earlier in science was interesting, wasn’t it?

I don’t like bugs, but knowing facts about them is fun.

That’s true. I didn’t even know that butterflies taste with their feet.

Me neither. I like the fact that fireflies sometimes flash in unison
when in large groups.

It must be a sight to behold. I wish I could get the chance to witness it someday.

Same here; I’d love to see it.
But do you know my least favorite fact about insects?

No, what is it?
