I always called them horny butts.

I started calling them that when I was 5 and had no idea what horny ment.

When I was little, we used to call them "stinkbugs" here in Florida.  FWIW ours were a LOT bigger than .5"-.75".  Easily 1"-1-1/4".  

Stay safe

The pincers are for tearing off and eating pieces of your brain after it crawls in your ear.
