Westralia. Right now my boyfriend is telling me how much bigger the cockroaches get up north. But this was goddamn huge! I never even saw a cockroach back where I used to live and now it's all, charging me from across the bench.
I woke up only to see a grasshopper staring at me from the foot of the bed. By my best estimate, it must have been six feet high at the shoulder. I asked it for the key. It pounced. My arms returned with a smorgasbord of fish.

which is not a continent but in fact a floating mass of spiders and other unpleasant things
We actually sprayed all our windows and stuff with that magic bug-away Mortein stuff
but so much for that
I considered squashing it but it was so big it would have made some epic crunching noise ajshdsakhdaskud

My apartment complex is filled with giant fucking spiders
It's awesome
One of them died on my girlfriend's car and was stuck to the roof while she drove around on the freeways all day
I told her that spiders would sacrifice themselves for their young, and that the dead one was actually an egg sac full of little baby spiders. Then I informed her that she should be very careful when getting out of the car because who knows when they might come out and crawl into the car

if it was a roach it was probably already in your house
set out some stuff for them to take back to their nest
then clean out your cabinets and refridgerator and make sure there isnt any old or open food laying about
some stuff
like, babies, dogs, pillows? What does this cockroach want from meeeee
Also not to be an excuse maker but our house is pretty tidy, I'm choosing to blame the cockroach on Australia being a huge crawling mass of insects floating in the sea
yesterday i was driving and i put down my window to feel the cool breeze when i noticed a couple of huge fucking spider legs sticking out from under the side mirror and put the window back up out of fear that it would decide to crawl on inside
We just get a lot of crickets walking around the house, nothing crazy. I am awaiting the day I find a Gila monster in my garage though, I guess that happens every so often to people.
also i live in a four storey townhouse and my room is way up at the top and this year a female friend has been stayin in my brothers room way down on the bottom floor and a few times ive been chillin in my room when i get a phonecall from her because a spider walked into her room and she is crouched in the corner paralysed with fear and wants me to kill it
usually out of laziness and spite ill try to catch it using as many of her things as possible
oh and my old house was more in the bush and instead of more houses on the other side of the road it was just bush descending into a valley so it was a cool view and all
sometimes the fire brigade would come along and set fire to the bush so all the little shit gets burned away to reduce the risk of bushfires, and at those times all these crazy looking fucking bizarre assortment of strange insects would escape the fire by crossing the street into our garden
once in that house i was just lazing watching tv when this baby little scorpion decides to cross the carpet right in front of me
i shoulda captured that fucker straight away and done some shit to it or thrown it into the bush but i went to get something and when i came back it was gone and i think i spent the rest of that night watching tv with my feet up on the couch
The worst part about huntsman spiders is that they're so flat that they can hide behind and in between just about anything.
Oh don't mind me I'm just taking down this dilapidated poster oh what's thi- fuck FUCK FUCKING SPIDER FUCK
yea it was a huntsman in my mirror
people say those things are harmless and leave them alone but fuck off they are the scariest looking bastards
last week one appeared while i was in the living room with my mother and we went after it and it conveniently crawled between a crack in the pages of a magazine so i just had to punch the magazine to deal with it

Insects and spiders don't really frighten me much but rats do. I fucking hate rats.
sometimes when i dont go to uni or i just get back pretty early in the middle of the day ill go out for a smoke on my balcony only to be greeted by a bunch of wasps just checkin in while they fly by so i gotta duck down while smoking and hope they stay away from me and the smoke until they leave
My former office had someone who kept two of those big ass giant Madagascar hissing cockroaches as pets.
Then, one day, they were both gone.
One was found in the president's car as he was doing 80 down the highway. Once he changed his fucking pants, he returned it.
The other was somewhere in the building. Nobody had a clue where, until it fell from the ceiling, dead, and landed in the middle of a table we were having a meeting at.

I have much cardboard!
But right now I am going to bed here's hoping I don't get carried away by a legion of insects in the night
I remain hopeful that someone will have a truly terrifying story for me in the morning because insects are way creepier than ghost stories
goodnight SE Salad Banjo

one time i was at some shitty gas station in knoxville at around midnight and as i was putting gas in my tank
a rat comes running at me from the shadowy woods surrounding the place, picks up some junk food wrapper
next to my foot, and just takes off into the darkness

Fucking cockroaches.
why
those vermin are much more potentially harmful than the vast majority of bugs and spiders
that thing doesn't even make sense
