From: https://www.instagram.com/matrondesign/?hl=enThing is, centipedes are famously fastidious. They wash every single leg multiple times a day and seem rather like a very leggy cat while doing it. Perhaps it's because they are predators. Predators seem to tend to be into washing up more. (I know it's a millipede in the cartoon, but that just makes it funnier since the centipede would roll their eyes at the complaining. )

@futurebird W.o.w. How does its little brain do that? It would be cool to see that head on to watch whatever it’s doing with (I presume?) it’s mouth parts. I’ll go back and watch the whole thing in case it’s already there.

@futurebird not a lot gets to me, but I once woke up with a centipede inside my sleeping bag, under my shirt, biting me.I woke up with the worst feeling of dread I've ever had, including a rocket hitting within a few hundred feet of my CHU.THEN I FEEL PINCHES, AND THEY BURNI jumped up, shimmied out of my bag, danced out into the moonlight, too horrified to make a sound. I shook the bag out and the little bastard scuttled away into a bush.

@futurebird cool facts. Never mind its a millipede in the picture, the sign says wash your hands. The critter can comply by walking straight out :-P

@futurebird in the case of cats, it's often said they're fastidious because they hunt by stealth, and comparison is made to wolves, which are not nearly so fastidious, and whose hunting depends mainly on endurance and teamwork. Which brings me to wonder: Do centipedes hunt by stealth?
