Just asking because I woke up from a nap to something tingly on my chest. I thought it was a hair and kept swatting it away, only for it to come back. And then it dawned on me........ROACH!!!!!!
So I immediately jumped out of bed and there it was. I tossed aside the blankets and mattress, got a can of Raid, and it should be dead by now.
So, does anyone else have any bug stories you'd like to share?

If you have Roaches maybe a exterminator is a call you should make.
If it was the other kind of "Roach" than maybe cutting down on it before you set yourself on fire.

I went crazy one time. Or I thought I did. Turns out, a spider just laid a few eggs inside my ear.

I don't mind most bugs.
The only exceptions are,
- Centipedes / Millipedes - Cockroaches - Any seriously gross looking bug, like camel spiders or something. - Stinging flying insects like mosquitoes and flies.
I like ladybugs, grasshoppers, most spiders, worms, beetles ... so long as they don't fly.

My former coworker put it best when he said spiders are a lot more deadly than roaches, but people are more tolerant of them anyway, mostly because of their size.
And for the record, I hate killing spiders, which aren't bugs, of course. In fact, one time I was looking at one when a pen fell out of my pocket and landed on it. I actually found myself apologizing to it.

I can take everything besides spiders, and worst of all, centipedes.

I can't stand Mosquitoes or Mosquitoe Eaters.
And although I was attacked by a wholen hive Wasps/Hornets one, I don't mind bees. I find myself more at peace with them, in an odd sort of way.
As for Spiders, I don't mind them at all. But I don't like the messy webs that they leave in certain places.

I don't mind them, but if they're staying in my house they should have the courtesy to stay out of my kitchen and my bathroom

I went crazy one time. Or I thought I did. Turns out, a spider just laid a few eggs inside my ear. Crazy? I went crazy once. These guys in coats had to come take me away, and then they put me in a room. The room had bugs in it, and bugs drive me crazy. Crazy? I went crazy once.

In my old house, my downstairs celler would be infested with these jumping crickets from time to time. Let me tell you something, when you are down there and all of a sudden you see something jump VERY HIGH AND FAR (most of the time at you) you will be scared shitless. What's even worse was that my cat would kill them, so I would find pieces of their legs or entire bodies around the floor.

I've always liked bugs ever since I was a kid. (all shapes and sizes)
I think they are cool ... except Mosquitos and to a lesser extent wasps. Those two don't last long.

I more often than not don't care much about what we consider "bugs" which are actually a combine of insects, arachnids, and whatever group centipedes are in.
The only things I hate are the ones that could hurt me, like centipedes, milipedes, wasp.
I don't like mosquitos and cockroaches because they love to bother me, by buzzing around or crawling on me in my own house. Which means it's time to kill. Other than that I don't care much about them.
I love (non-killer) spiders. I even cheered one on when it ate some of these annoying termites crawling around my table. The only thing I don't like about them is when I walk into one of their webs and it gets stuck in my hair.. Those webs are darn near invisible.

First, I watched a show about spiders and the scientist said you are never more than 3 feet from a spider. OK, now here's a story. My husband(then Boyfriend) and I were driving around one night. It was summer and we had the windows down. He was eating some sunchips, and tipped the bag up to his mouth to get the crumbs and some of the crumbs got on his shirt. Now being the nice person i am I started picking them off and feeding them to him. I accidently got a bug, of unknown type (it was dark) and fed it to him. Yeah, he realized it was a bug when he bit it and it squished.

I concure, and I also love your signature. The question, though, is if Abby cooked the posse and served them at his rib-and-Chinese restaurant. Centi/millipedes don't last, and neither does anything in my kitchen. Spiders in the corner of the room? Keep workin...though I will rid the apartment of an egg sac if I see one. In the past five years, I've only gotten 2 mosquito bites. They hate me. I must taste like crap.
