Would you take it :3


Whatever 3 things you pick will now ALWAYS grow to 5 times whatever their maximum size ever recorded was (in modern history, so no gigantic prehistoric things). This doesn't affect their lifespan, so they'll be growing faster to accommodate their new size. And let's just ignore how this would totally mess up the ecosystem since it's just for fun

This will only apply to creatures born after you take the deal; all current things in the world stay how they are

  • Mosquitoes
  • Snakes
  • Ants
  • Roaches
  • Seagulls
  • Ticks and fleas
  • Termites
  • Mice and rats
  • Raccoons
  • Spiders
  • Centipedes

You people underestimate the assholishness of seagulls...imagine seeing something with a 28-foot wingspan that wants to either steal your food or crap on you at the beach :<

I don't think seagulls that large could fly, ticks and fleas would be easier to find and I could ride around on a raccoon.

Ants aren't that large to start with, though. I did debate between them and the mouse/rats, though. They might have been the better choice.

Then the seagulls would walk up to you and kick sand in your face like some old school beach bully. Then turn and poop on your blanket. That's just the kinda animals they are

Seagulls - Not dangerous animals and they would only be the size of eagles basically
Mosquitoes - Them being bigger would actually help people because they would be easier to see
Ticks and fleas - For the same reason as mosquitoes, also fleas still wouldn't be big at all

They wouldn't because they're still rats. Especially since you claim there's no effect to the environment and all.

But in all seriousness there's rats running around in dirty places. I remember once when I worked at McDonald's I was taking out the trash to the back dumpster and something fell on my shoe. It was a big fucking rat that scared the hell out of me <_<

Mosquitos - they're already pretty small, so them growing 5x won't do anything more than being easier to identify if one is on me.

Rats and Mice - Don't see too many of these, I'd imagine if they were larger it would be hard for them to get into buildings

Seagulls - I only encounter these when at the beach and they just want to be fed. I'm fine with throwing bread to giant seagulls.

Because it's dirty. There were rats coming out into the streets because there weren't many people. Rats are timid and if you see one, it was looking for your leftovers, not your foot. Being a rat is a hard and thankless survival game.

Centipedes - As horrifying as these things look, they aren't all that harmful. And even with a size increase would probably be the least threatening/dangerous thing on the list.
Spiders - Same as the above,
Seagulls - Birds are kind of assholes in general, if you had said Swan instead of Seagull I probably wouldn't have picked this.

Everything else could cause too much property damage, or are too aggressive in general to want to give a size increase to.

TC said largest recorded. Bullet ants are 1.2 inches long.

I suppose this is a question of if we're just talking 1.2 x 5, or if we're talking (1.2 x 2) x 5 times over. 19.2 inches vs 6 inches is a big ass difference. Or maybe I'm just overthinking it? Idklol.

But yes, I did overestimate how big it'd be though.

Changing mine to ticks, cockroaches and spiders. Reasoning: People think mosquitoes may become easier, but ticks become deadly.

Mice and rats
Raccoons
Seagulls

With the mice, rats, and raccoons, it's not that different from capybaras if we're going just by size. I mean, those damn things can grow to be as big as mid-size dogs and we aren't afraid of them. As for the seagulls, I guess they'd be slightly bigger than albatrosses now, but not nearly as long lived. There are bigger birds out there so this seems fine.

Raccoons/Seagulls/Rats/Mice

They get bigger, they're easier to find and kill. Particularly the rats/mice, plus their size would make it harder for them to hide in the places they usually did before.

Seagulls need shooting anyway, horrid fucking things.

Raccoons of that size will need to eat a lot more. Bringing them into faster conflict and elimination.
