of the three or four times so far i have found a cicada clinging to me i have kept my cool only once.
i did immediately text a buddy "AAAAAAAAAGH!!," but only after coolly walking to the door & flicking the imago off my shin, calmly composing that text in my mind, the while.
but i did not flinch, jump about, brush & swat at my own body as on the several occasions the creature crawls the hat, hangs from spectacles or traverses from collar to neck in its clumsy climb.
