Took a lot of getting used to when I moved to the East Coast for grad school. Supposedly they do live in my home state but I can't recall ever seeing one here. It's mostly spiders, millipedes, and earwigs where I'm from.

The thing that really freaked me out about centipedes is how absurdly fast they are. Also the one time I watched one crawling above me in bed and then it dropped onto my pillow what the fuck.
