UGH! Those are my LEAST fav insects. Moreso than spiders. :bleh:


To me, roaches are skyhigh on my ick factor because they're quick and just disgusting. I get so freaked out whenever I see one. Especially if they're 2 inches or longer. :bleh: And moreso if they can fly. :shocked:

Hold on! "Whenever" you see a roach - does this mean you see them often??!! :shocked:
Oh wait, you got your hair stuck in a creature-trap, so you maybe do. :beaten:

I've only ever seen roaches in a glass cabinet at a zoo. I looked into their tank by accident, and all but heaved. I loathe roaches more than spiders, but I never see them where I live. (England does have its plus points, lol). :mrgreen:

I don't know how I dare ask this, but - can many cockroaches fly?
*grosses self out*

@ Wynter - where do roaches rate for you then? Surely they are second after centipedes?

I think I shall move to England.

Here in Hawaii, it's a normal thing to see roaches (smaller ones are more common) on a regular basis. And they also are common if you live on ground level, which I do. :(

As for the bigger roaches, they mostly are outside, but once in a while, they get in the house. :( I've even seen a couple of dead ones when I first opened the door to the building where I work. :bleh:

Eek, I searched online and found out that there are 19 types of roaches living in Hawaii! Ew...I want to move to England even more now.

Oh, and the creature trap was for a mouse. Yes. Mice, centipedes and especially roaches. Hawaii's not so much of a paradise now, is it? :P :shamefulcry:

I've not a single roach or centipede at my house. *non-subtle offer* :beaten:

An occasional spider, but they're typically dead from the residual insect spray I use on the base of the outer doors... :)

If we were in some lame, cheesy drama, that could be taken as a proposal. :P

And so far, no centipede could be found, so I might just surprise you on your doorstep, beem. :hehe: :beaten:

I don't think I've ever seen a roach outside of the zoo, like yourself. But anything wtih numerous legs completely freaks me out. :bleh: Which is weird, because I'm not at all a girly-girl.

That would fit this forum to a tee.

Remember: I did spray my doorstep. :beaten:

That's only if we jump into one of those fangirl/boy threads. :beaten:

If you hate creepy insects/animals, you guys should all move to Holland: we simply don't have em here :victory:

no snakes, no tarantulas, no killerbees, no scorpions. roaches aren't too common, only to be found in really filthy places like in the kitchen of a chinese restaurant :doh:

Saw them one in my life: they were like 1/2" max.

Yays! The centipede got caught! On one of those sticky mouse traps. :hehe: I'll be courteous to the squeamish and will only post a link to the pic:

Maybe he just needs to strap her to a chair and force her to watch them. :hehe: Or perhaps we could suggest dramas that would appeal to her?

THANK YOU for not posting the pic. A-Oyaji can learn a thing or two from you. >>waves fist at him and all his spider posts<<

We've suggested this as well. No-go. :puppydog:

Spider posts? I think I missed that, which is a GOOD thing. Hmm...I guess I should'nt post pics of roaches, eh? :hehe: :bleh:

I wonder why she's so adamant about not wanting to even watch a single episode (or so I'm assuming). Maybe he should just leave a drama playing in the DVD player and it might get her attention if she passed by?

I think it's more that she's just not interested. I mean, some people don't like watching stuff where they have to read text because of the language barrier, or because the culture is alien, or because they'd just rather watch something else... I dunno.

I think A-Oyaji tried with Nodame and Kuitan, but both failed.

I guess that's how some people are. My family included. :(

I'm not sure if those dramas were really that good a selection. For a woman, I think it would be better to show a drama that she could relate to in some way--probably a romantic comedy or a cute, affectionate drama, or something with a heartbreaking theme. If I had to suggest some dramas, I'd either go with Kimi ga oshiete kureta koto, Long vacation, Virgin road, or something in the lines of that.
