I thought about it but you know the experience probably would just ruin it for you. Human skin isn't very smooth way up close and I imagine the odor would be something else at that scale.
I see you're a man of culture
Traversing a motherboard sounds like it would be interesting!
Yeah i have always imagined them as little cities
Just make sure it is turned off first.
The scene from Honey I Shrunk the Kids where they find the giant oreo is still something I want to experience for myself
Fwiw, the recipe for the white stuff in an Oreo is just shortening and powdered sugar.
Make some of that, and a batch of chocolate cookies, and live your best life.
And if you're into videogames, buy Grounded - HEAVILY inspired by Honey I Shrunk the Kids, and also just an overall really well made and fun game.
Beware of spiders though
I don't think shortening is Kosher, and Oreos have changed their recipe to be fully Kosher.
Oh, I'm sure the official recipe has a whole laboratory worth of goodies in it - but the one you can make in your own kitchen: shortening to volume, powdered sugar to taste/texture.
I thought it was an oatmeal cream pie, but it's been a long time since I've seen that movie.
The Derek Zoolander Center For Kids Who Can't Read Good And Who Wanna Lean To Do Other Stuff Good Too
The inside of a mechanical watch, or walking across the display of a computer laid flat
I want to walk along the groove of an LP. Explore a human fingerprint. Juggle sugar crystals. Explore a water drop.
I'd probably die but I would like to be in a garden
It will be a great sight, while a ladybug sucks the fluids out of your body
Personally, I plan on being taken over by the cordyceps fungus, which will instruct me to go to a warm, wet place in order to grow its spores, then burst through me and kill me as the fungus eats my body.
A hell of a way to go out
The first time i saw a documentary about this as a kid, with plenty of footage of poor Insects seeking high places, climbing to the top and burst those spores in the air in order to disperse them as far as possible, i was unable to sleep.
I just couldn't wrap my head around the whole ordeal and the kind of power such a fungus has.
I know, they are unable to do this to bigger animals ( for reasons i don't remember ), but for how long? If evolution taught me something, it's that it finds a fucking way or/and a way to fuck.
A truck, like they are huge if you are humansize, imagine how absolutely gigantic it would be from an ants perspective.
Other stuff includes, motherbords, insids of mechanical watches, really small toys, eyes of different needles, sand, oil paintings, small syringes, a water droplet on a flat surface, microscope samples, Lego sets and a movie at the cinema.
How people get downvoted for expressing their ant choices is beyond me.
I'll save you with an upvote.
Do people forget it's only non-constructive / offensive things you downvote? Not things you simply disagree with lol.
I would like to know which one of my ant choices they disagreed with, we could have had a discussion about why.
Hump a lady bug 😉
Giggity!
Do you start off the size of an Ant or do you get time to prepare before being shrunk?
I would build a food garden first and maybe a mini treehouse on a bonsai plant.
Giant Cherry tomatoes would be great.
An ant nest, if they will let me.
Good luck Ants don't trust Ants from other Colonies that look the same but have a slightly different scent. If you have a good Ant Disguise laying around you might be able to find what perfume they use and blend in with your fellow Ants.
@Gamers_Mate I've been pretty good to ants over the years so I was hoping they would recognise me from that. :)

Don't need to bring a disguise, you can build one. From corpses.
Just crush up some ants from that colony and rub the resulting paste over your body before you shrink down.

Mica, sand, cds, other bugs, anything that has intricate fine structure.
Play Grounded, it’s great, especially in coop.
Just discovered it after the big patch came out in November. Fun game. The OP can just find out lol
Being the size of an ant would make riding small helium balloons fun.
A pizza and a beer.
My two great loves
The Grand Canyon! Must seem even grander to an ant
The inside of a fluffy carpet
An open bag of sugar!
The inside of a Russian nuclear weapon launch facility. I would love to just gaze at it for a moment knowing that as long as I proceed slowly and carefully I can end civilization.
You should watch "Honey I shrunk the kids".
