Does anybody know what the heck this thing is? Found it today sitting on the hood of my car in a furniture store parking lot, huge , whatever it is the sucker is drooling. It rode all the way home with me sitting on the hood of my car. It never blew off. Weird looking creature.

Bound for me to have a "stink bug" sitting on my car, LOL..I had never seen a bug like this before, weird looking thing, and it was huge. Well, at least I was spared the humilation of him testing his "stink" on me...
Coolhar your picture is very similar to the thing I saw except it had a small amount of white on the underside, and stripes on his legs, but it definitely was in the shield bug - stink bug variety. Because it is very similar to the photos I have seen here. I just hope I never have another close encounter with another one of these suckers.
(Please note, I am playing not attacking anyone's grammar. This type of "error" is just funny to me, and I love seeing them!)
This is relevant to the dangling/misplaced modifier grammar joke, not to the Disgusting Giant Bug. This is a line from the Washington Post recently, in an article about problems with vermin at the National Zoo:
"Mice were seen scurrying in the enclosures holding apes and orangutans."
I wonder if any of those zookeepers would be interested in a position with the Redskins? Something like Strength & Conditioning Coach for the Offensive Line.
