There may be people who like centipedes. 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.
