  • I lived in an apartment building with a big pipe leading to the septic tank. Cockroaches were always visible crawling in and out of the gaps between the concrete and pipe, living in the literal shithole. They carry so many germs!!!

    At night, that’s they’d scale the building and come visit us. I woke up one night to my cat staring slightly above my head. I moved a tiny bit, and a big mind momma cockroach jumped off my headboard onto my face, then onto the blankets, where my cat swiftly executed it (with no small level of skill and reflexes). That night left an impression on me.

    I hope this explains both fear and being spooked by them.

    Edit; some fun typos




  • I learned long ago to accept constructive criticism and move on. I always have the knee-jerk reaction of getting offended, but then I think twice, and I shrug it off. We can’t each know everything about everything.

    BTW, grammar is effing hard to get right, and the internet and the reality of text messaging has really cemented some bad habits and misconceptions.

    For the record, I don’t fault you at all for “incorrect” use of punctuation. I just didn’t really get the premise of the post, and I’m a pedantic troll by nature, so here we are.
