So while I'm sure there are thousands of different kinds of milli- amd centipedes, in general:

  • Millipedes have shorter legs
  • Millipedes are slow. Like, slow enough to see them move unlike centipedes, creepy bastards
  • Millipedes are vegetarians, and while crushing them can be bad news, they don't bite
  • Millipedes look kinda like long pill-bugs, whereas centipedes look like hell had a nightmare and it was given flesh and form
