I hate bugs...

[Prophetic Heresy]

So, I'm sitting here and enjoying the wonderful discussions available on this wonderful site when I hear a slight rustling to my lower left. So, I turn on the light and it's a freaking roach. Not even a small one, the absolutely disgusting bastard is larger than my freaking thumb!

Now I'm no girlie man, I set out to kill this vile parasite for intruding upon my living quarters. Of course, it's already hidden itself away, but I have my trusty sprays to rustle the bug out of hiding. It's no use though, I can't pin this thing down and I actually think there might be more than one. I can't sleep knowing that these creatures still live so unless I kill these things soon, I'm going to be up all night.

Can anyone identify?

Times I jumped at a slight rustle to kill this thing while writing this: Twice.

What you could do is act like your going to bed, but instead just lie and wait.

They will come.

I HATE roaches. worst thing ever. if they are in my room I can't sleep at night because im afraid they will start crawling all over me.

I don't mind most bugs. But I fucking HATE spiders. I'm not sure why. One time at my lakelot, in Northern bloody Alberta, I saw a spider the size of my hand. I crushed it with a bucket. I saw a giant one in Switzerland, too, in my Aunt's bathtub. I felt ill.

Spoiler: Click here for terrifying spider pictures:

If I saw this, I'd scream. Literally, high-pitched scream.

Reason #421 I'm not going to Iraq. I saw a presentation from a Combat Engineer that was there. He said they would see these things running beside their tanks. They would hear them running around at night.

Deadly poisonous. And they live in the same province that I do[/img]

That first image happened in my flat a while back. Except I didn't catch most of the babies, they hid in my furniture for the next year or so.

If I see a bug I usually don't kill it, I just take it outside. Since I got kittens I let them chase the bugs now.

Make a trap.

If you build it, they will come.

Hey! We have the exact same avatar!

OT: I find those giant flying daddy longlegs things in my room pretty often. I hate them so much.

KILL IT WITH FIRE!!!!!!!!!

Great, this talk about spiders has made me so paranoid that I just slapped my hand and jumped when a tiny hair on my finger was slightly disturbed by gravity.

 

[Prophetic Heresy]

Yeah, it's not even that I hate all bugs, so the title is mildly misleading. I actually love most of the predators and I think the congregating insects like Bees and Ants are fascinating.

Spiders and Dragonflies are my favorite, though. I'm starting to like centipedes just because I heard you could leave them in your house and they'll hunt down roaches.

Still haven't caught the bastard...

Whenever I see bugs in my room, it becomes an epic battle of the ages with shoes and tissues.

I remember seeing this Australian spider picture...

Golden orb weaver or some crap like that...

It caught a chicken in its spider web.

Holy Fuck.

Oh, the times I've been in this situation. It always sucks, cause afterward, the slightest rustle, whether or not it's actually a roach, makes me stop what I'm doing to try and catch it. Found one crawling on the wall next to my head, once, the bastard. And they're hard to kill, too, they can take a hit like a fucking Tank, about as big as one too, sometimes. Damn pests.

The worst, though was when I woke up one morning to a wasp that invaded my room. That was an epic battle that I won, eventually.

I fucking hate flies.

During the summer, they're fucking everywhere in my house.

I'd be just minding my own buisness, when all of a sudded I hear "bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz" combined with the ticking sounds of it hitting the cieling.

So annoying I want to burn the house down just so I can make all the flies burn and die...

I really fucking hate flies...

You can either:

-put ear plugs in, convince yourself that they're gone (somehow) and try to fall asleep

or

-nuke yourself so at least you will be in different place than them for sure

I had something similar happen once...only WORSE:
It happened a couple of months ago, when I was taking a shower. I had some water in my eyes, so, of course, I reached for my towel on the towel rack. When I moved it, I saw something fall out and onto the floor of the tub. I couldn't tell what it was, until I dry off my eyes and then I saw it was a GIANT roach!!!! The damn bug was at least 2 INCHES long!!! And it started coming towards me...and I of course started freaking out lol. But I managed to kill it (I won;t go into detail.

OT: I've been there, and I feel your pain.
