I STOPPED MYLOTTING because of a COCKROAH

Philippines
April 10, 2010 9:49pm CST
I was so soaked last night while surfing the net and mylotting when a black object moved at a corner of my wall. WTF?!!! My enemy showed up at the very hour when I was hyped to type in my discussion responses. I really hate cockroaches especially when they're on the wall and suddenly they fly. I'm a paranoid to their flying stunts.LOL. That's why I ended up turning off the laptop and went to bed instead. How about you mylotters? What insect or thing that would shoo you from where you are when that insect or object appears? LOL.

hi khalida and gambamarcela then you would have got a charge out of this, when I worked in the library a few years back we had a little green lizard that just would not stay outside.we would catch him, put him out, and he always managed some way to get back in the library. well I was putting away magzines in the reading area lounge, when this large man all of a sudden screamed out loud, get the f thing off me, get it off, and the rest of the people sitting there reading were all just gaping at the poor guy. here was little Mr.Lizard sitting on the man's arm , well clinging really and the man was about to go into cardiac arrest.I picked the little guy up and took him back outside. the poor man still looked sick so I asked him if he was okay, and he asked me to see if there was a pill in his shirt pocket. I found it,nitroglycerin for angina, and gave it to him, then got him a class of water. I asked him then if he wanted us to call the paramedics but by then the nitroglycerine was taking effect, he said he was okay. So some people can be literally scared sick by an innocent little lizard.poor little lizard, he was just lonely.

I stongly agree with you hatley. They are filty critters and very disgusting. My friend even shared to me his story about that cockroach. Could you imagine he was kissed by it? WTH. And my other friend told me that this roach was inside his mouth because his mouth was open while he was asleep. That was rediculously GROSSSSSSS...

Hi, gambamarcela. I don't like these little critters either... Especially when they fly.. Ughhh.. A spider or a rat will make me leave where I am at to go somewhere else.. I don't like to be around these critters. For some reason the rats love coming out at night when I am awake.

If I see a bug in my room... depends on my mood. I would either take a glass and paper catch it and throw it outside or a show a cloth around my hand and SMASH!!! afterward cleaning the wall. if the bug is too big and killing it would make too much mess I use the first option. Sometimes i even play with them, call me sadistic but I used to catch flies and rip wing off so they won't escape and go outside to throw them in a spider web and watch the predator enjoying my gift , but I do kill a spider if I see it n my room but depends on the species as well heh I'm weird

I've only had the opportunity to come in contact with one flying roach in my life. It almost killed me. Literally. It tried to attack me, I swear it did! It dive bombed me, and actually made contact with my cheek. It flew out of an open window before I was able to get my final revenge. I think it went to go get reinforcements or something.

My mom said that these roaches attack you for revenge.LOL. I don't know if it's true but I also encountered that one. It just chased me wherever I go. It attacked me solely like it wanted to seek revenge.haha. Of all the members of the family, why me?haha. Happy mylotting!

You have no idea how these little brown christmas beetles freak me out. Luckily we don't have any cockroaches here. I heard they are nasty. But these little beetles have the tendency to get tangled up in ones hair. Then you should see me. Not impressed at all. TATA.
• Philippines
11 Apr 10
I haven't seen one at home. Do they appear in your household? It would freak me out too if that beetle is entangled in my hair, like I would likely shave my head .LOL.

I'm okay with any critter as long as THEY DON'T COME NEAR ME. Or I don't accidentally touch them. I remember when I was rummaging in an old cabinet and I almost touched a nest of newly born mice. You know, the kind that's so young they're just pink and has their eyes still closed. Well, I screamed so loud my brother came running in with a stick. And then he started laughing at me like crazy. Your story reminded me of my guy friend who hates flying cockroaches. When I was in college, we were hanging out in a classroom which was not used a lot when a cockroach came flying by. He jumped up so fast and gave a high pitched scream, all of us doubled up in laughter.

i also don't like cockroaches. well,in your experience it really makes me laugh when your brother came with a stick and started laughing at you!as if you found someone in your room accidentally,when it was just a mice! what? i thought it was a cockroach you're stating? i can't believe you've seen a newly born mice! i really don't like them,even how small they was! if i'm in your position,i maybe able to scream myself out! about your guy friend,that one was really a laugh trip! i haven't met guys who were afraid of cockroaches,well i guess it's because i haven't been with guys while seeing cockroaches the same time. if i'm also with the group i'll also laugh that time!

It would be a spider. I hate spiders ever since I was a kid and I remember sometimes when there's a spider in the bathroom, I would wait until the spider goes away. Cockroaches are another thing and I also hate their flying prowess. I remember just recently my friends and I were eating at this restaurant that had nipa huts or a garden type setting. We were chatting after a good meal, then all of a sudden a cockroach comes flying and we had to literally flee from the place. We ended up in an airconditioned cafe that thankfully showed no undesirable insects flying around.

LOL. I also heard from my friends that there are restaurants in our city with those roaches wandering around the place. Isn't it disgusting? I would never dine in that place ever.LOL.

I think everybody hate cockroaches; they are so dirty, they eat even the feces of humans and the fact that they are smelly makes me shudder and frantic seeing one. Cockroaches are also the cause of too many human illness like hepatitis and some that I forgot to remember.
• Philippines
13 Apr 10
Indeed. They are filthy insects. ReallY? They contribute to hepatitis? I thought it's just the flies.Well, roaches are way too filthy as well. Now I know.Thanks for sharing an informative response merced. Happy mylotting!

Earlier I was afraid of roaches, they are creepy crawly creatures!! Yaak!! Once a cockroach ran all over my body.. It was such an irritating feeling. They have spikes all over their body and i developed rashes because of their toxic body fluids.. After that day I have made a point that whenever I see a roach i will kill it... Attack is the Best Defence.... The Roaches are smart too. One day a roach entered my trouser when i was walking down the road.. I had a tough time getting it out of my pants.. I bet no body has gone through such a horrible experience of a roach running in your pants!!! Happy Mylotting!!!!!
