It would be kinda cool if long-term insect farming meant we developed some type of large goofy domesticated insect that I could keep as a pet, like the bug equivalent of a chicken
Personally, I would regard such an individual with deep suspicion. I have just petted my cat: "And how is this good little cat beast?" Now what sort of man or woman or monster would stroke a centipede on his underbelly? "And here is my good big centipede!" If such a man exists, I say kill him without more ado. He is a traitor to the human race.
