[quote=ahoaho][quote=ares6][quote=ahoaho][quote=ares6] Anyone ever seen those fly that looks like a bee? But it's a fly?

Genus Bombylidae?

you got a link for that?

And Mams is right.[/quote]
no he's not. Wasps are different in appearance from maggots. Besides wasps inject their eggs into eggs of fly when the eggs are outside. otherwise the wasps could just hatch the eat the fly from inside out[/quote]
There are different breeds of wasp.

And

To a non-entomologist, most, if not all, larvae look the same.[/quote]

I have some training in recognition of bugs. Why do you constantly insist that wasp larvae and maggots are similar? Why do you constantly have to require everyone to be a bug specialist to distinguish between a maggot and a wasp. In all my years, I have never read about a species of wasp that lays egg into the fly.

Well, you haven't heard of a fly carrying her eggs inside her either. .__.

The first two respective pictures are a maggot and a wasp larva, respectively. Also, a maggot is just a shorthand name for fly larvae.

As far as me being a 'sophist', I wear that title proudly, seeing as I'm a person who seeks knowledge, wisdom, and enlightenment. Why you use it as an insult is beyond me.

....anyone can tell between a maggot and a wasp larvae...please don't insult our intelligence. If you have something good to contribute, please go on. Otherwise, stop the self inflating comments. In the past, sophists means teacher of philosophy and rhetoric. The modern use describes arrogant people who knew nothing but pretend to and use complex words or logic to trick the audience into agreement. If you want to keep praising yourself, get a mirror.

Also, from Webster's

Main Entry:
soph·ist Listen to the pronunciation of sophist
Pronunciation:
\ˈsä-fist\
Function:
noun
Etymology:
Latin sophista, from Greek sophistēs, literally, expert, wise man, from sophizesthai to become wise, deceive, from sophos clever, wise
Date:
14th century

1: philosopher
2capitalized : any of a class of ancient Greek teachers of rhetoric, philosophy, and the art of successful living prominent about the middle of the fifth century b.c. for their adroit subtle and allegedly often specious reasoning
3: a captious or fallacious reasoner

I assume you mean the last definition, although I prefer the first.

you're getting off topic. go on wiki and check the history of the word. Emphasize on "Modern Usage" before making a fool out of yourself.
""In modern usage, sophism, sophist, and sophistry are derogatory terms, due the influence of many philosophers in the past (sophism and platonism were enemy schools).""

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sophists

Anyway, hey, I heard some countries in Europe like breeds maggots in cheese and eats it along with the cheese. Anyone confirm that?

I don't know about maggots, but some cheeses (like the one with the white powder on the rind) are covered in small whitish bugs. These bugs and their droppings are what make up that white powder. The cheese mite.

Glad I prefer edam (Babybel type stuff).

Other cheeses are produced similarly, mmm brie. There's also a 100+ year old piece of cured ham which is perfectly safe to eat if you brush the mold off, the mold is just there to give it flavour whilst it cures.

edit: maggots in cheese. Glad I don't live anywhere that has that.

Lose - Opposite of win, to misplace something/someone. e.g. To lose your way, to lose a fight.
Loose - Opposite of tight. e.g. To have a loose screw, to loosen a jar lid.

^ Not just scanlators, but also company documents are getting it wrong now!

I generally take wiki articles/passages with no references with a grain of salt, and I find Webster's dictionary to be a better source.

However, regardless of connotation, I take it to mean the primary, if antiquated, definition, therefore as a compliment from you.

If you mean it as the latter definition, then you, yourself are such. I cannot see any way, shape, or form in which I have used a fallacious argument to bolster my claims. I use the words I use because they are part of my vocabulary, and they allow me to make better use of language. Not once have I told anyone what to think, nor have I made any attempt to deceive anyone. I simply make inferences based on data and fact. Few, if any, of my statements are self indulgent.

It seems that you are just looking for a more clever way to call me an ignorant liar.

As far as the topic of the thread, I already provided a link to the parasitic wasp. Furthermore, if you can tell the difference between a wasp larva and a fly larva with an unaided eye, more power to you. But please, provide some sort of ethos for your argument. As it stands, you haven't provided any proof that a) this really happened, b) what the maggot looked like c) that your knowledge surpasses others' or d) the statements made by myself and others are untrue.

As it stands, the topic has been discussed and answered. If that answer is insufficient, obviously there is no one on here who can answer the question posed. In which case, the thread has been reduced to a simple discussion of maggots.

it can cause enteric myiasis, but the flavour of the cheese is too strong to bear. I must go to Italy next summer and eat some 🤣

Lambchopsil, is your name lamb?

Most people just call me "lamb" on the net since it's easier...And no, my real name is not like that.

Okay, I think we've discussed this to death and decomposition. And now we're off to cheese...Ya, I usually like cheese, but I'm not trying that kind. Anyways!
