I just laughed hard for ten minutes

....and you can too, as long as reading about cockroaches in cereal doesn't bother you

Buggies. Baggies. Roachios. Thank you, I needed that laugh.

So happy to share it. I was snorting at one point.

Best exercise ever!

It does not! *goes off* :)

I saw that thread!

But, it did not make me laugh, as I am currently trying to vanquish a cockroach infestation while

a) too exhausted to make everything clean; and

b) without poisoning my cats.

Oh dear, I'm so sorry it hits so close to home.

(I somehow hoped that being a (v v large) island, Australia was free of roaches.

Ha ha ha ha - no!

We have

- honking great big feral European cockroaches, which never die in Winter, because there's no frost in 90% of Australia

- tiny native bush cockroaches

- and in Sydney and Brisbane, we have FLYING cockroaches. Seriously, they can fly 5 metres or more up into the air!
(Thankfully my city doesn't get these.)
