Posts: 251 (06/15/08 10:22 AM) I Need A Clue Reply Quote More Recent Posts Message Connection Block Invite	the palmetto bug. Why do they not just fucking call them ROACHES????? Anyhow, I woke up Wed. night with one on my FACE. On my motherfucking FACE. I did not sleep again until last night. Totally wrecked. The days were great but as the sun went down, I started feeling the dread... WTF is with these things? Do they get worse as it gets hotter or something? We've spent time in the south before and seen one or two. This last week was rediculous. SWARMS of the motherfuckers. And they ALL ran towards me. Someone give me the story on these fucks. Tell me what they have revealed in the past and what their weaknesses are. I must make them suffer....

Was still a few live ones in the boxes too. Had to get the exterminator in Quick for that shit. Flying roaches is all they are to me.

They aren't really a cockroach in the "we get into your food and crap' sort of way, but I had one land on my face in my sleep the other night. I just shuddered writing that. Texas has something called 'water roaches' that are equally hideous.

Their was a sign on the rental's fridge about them that made you think you should keep things dark because when they mate the males emit light so the females go all voapy nutso. Everyone kept saying turn out the lights. I was like FUCK NO. I'd rather see the fuckers. I swear I only slept between sunup and 8:30 the last two nights we were there.
