This is what Reddit used to do for me. The weirdest thing Reddit ever did was give me the name of an insect that for years I tried to Google when I would see it and I have legitimately only ever seen the bug 3 times in my 28 years of life. They are so small, so infrequent, and so rare that I thought for years I wasn't even seeing an I sect but just a fuzz from a dandelion once it changes.

I mean for actual fucking years I could not find the regular name, the slang name (usually changes based on dialect, or even the scientific name. The amount of times I searched for "white fuzzy bug" or "white floating bug." No matter the combination. I even would tell people, "I remember seeing this bug and I have seen it so rarely I don't even know if it is real." And most of my friends would say, "yeah never seen it." And then that one friend would say, "dude me too." And then one fucking day I open Reddit and God dammit if I didn't believe it someone gave me the name. Actual years of feeling insane and thinking those little fuckers were a sign of something higher because of how fragile and cute they are and Reddit not only gives me the name, confirms I am sane but enlightens me on the little bastards they actually are.

I am from West Virginia and if you made it this far well by God if you have seen one then I swear on mother nature you aren't insane and we are in this together.
