They’re called a kissing bug because they tend to target the lips and face, as they’re active at night and that’s typically what’s exposed when people are sleeping.

This is the second-worst news you could have given me on this subject, the first-worst being "and they're in your pillows right now."

I hoped to get some "fuck yeah, let's never learn about those bastards TOGETHER!" in response but feared I would get informative replies like yours. I pine for my ignorance.
