Like my mom always taught me, don't get into the back of a stranger's van, not even if they offer you pretty blue cockroaches.

[–] LogicalDrivel@sopuli.xyz 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

But what if they were blue?

Sorry your dealing with that!

[–] 1985MustangCobra@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

I would still kill them. cockroaches carry disease.

When you say you're dealing with it, you don't happen to mean you just have an infestation, and the thing you're doing about it is being sad about it?

[–] 1985MustangCobra@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

Bright colours = deadly. Potentially gets you high with just the right amount.
