pill bug

(n) a sow bug, a harmless terrestrial isopod commonly found under rocks and in soil. Also called a roly poly. So called because the critter rolls up into a tight little pill when you poke it.

I waited for a long time, and finally the pill bug unrolled and crawled away.

mae west

I got a mae west and had to use my reserve.
