Ants wage war.

No they don't.
They hunt.

They actually attack other colonies of the same species, take prisoners, and use them as slaves.

Siege hasn't done that.  ;)

Congrats to Siegy and Raz for another successful threadshitting.
And we didn't even have time to deploy our emergency threadshit shelters.

One of them is crazy. I don't know what Raz's excuse is.
Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

Ants really do have wars.

I must also agree on the ant issue.  -_-
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

So do chimps. Lots of animals do. Although what ants do is more like raiding than  warfare.

We get pavement ant wars on our driveway every year.

Why, what were you talking about?
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Dude, war without weapons aint a war, but some fist fight at a bar.

War require weapons, organized combatants, etc.

Ants have wars, but they also find time for tender moments. A Sunday stroll with the family. An evening at home with the love of your life. Sunsets.
Women want me. Men want to be with me.
