who the fuck calls it slug bug

tag your state and what you call it i grew up in AZ and it was slug bug

I grew up in Southern California in the 70s and 80s. We called it “Punch buggy”.

I grew up on the East Coasr and we called it “punch buggy,” too. Clearly, this unnamed American informant who calls it “slug bug” is either an imposter in our midst who learned of our culture in an espionage training session or a U.S. disinformation agent bent on the clever task of having foreign spies out themselves. If it’s the latter, god speed, soldier. If it’s the former, welcome to the jungle, motherfucker. Your ass is seen.
