    Angry Infested!

    Today I found a bunch of tiny little red ants crawling around my desk and keyboard. So I went after them. With a can of Raid. Genocide has never felt so good.

    When was the last time you were INFESTED?

    This year, the kitchen at my home was infested with cockroaches. The german kind. My mom paid Terminex to help get rid of them, and now the roaches are appearing less often during the night. It was pretty bad earlier in the year, but now it's better.

    Apparently, I have been declared banished.

    My apartment had an ant problem out of nowhere a few months ago. I totally wasted my place with a can of Raid and they were never heard from again.

    I also had an epic battle with a Wasp a couple of times with a fly swatter. I think next time I get invaded by one of those, I might throw some Zelda boss music on because I end up jumping and dodging like Link from the 3D games.

    I've had an ant problem before, but nothing a little Raid didn't fix. Bug genocide does indeed feel great.

    when I lived with my parents, i often saw spiders and/or house centipedes. You'd best believe I bought a can of lemon-scented Raid.

    My mom's attracts flies in grand scale. I'm not even kidding you I don't even know why it's not like the place is dirty or smells or anything but come summer there is a mass of the smurfers. Whenever I am over I buy can's of raid and go on a smurfing genocidal rampage NONE SHALL LIVE WHILST I DRAW BREATH! Of course, with the massive amounts of Raid I spray on a rage filled genocidal rampage me drawing breath could become a thing of the past!

    2007 fly infestation. Turns out there was a dead rat in the wall giving birth to masses of maggots.

    2004 nat infestation. Turns out our sink was leaking and nats birth naturally in moist environments.
    Jack: How do you know?

    Will: It's more of a feeling really.

    Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?

    Will: No.

    If Demolition Man were remade today

    Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
    Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
    Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
    Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
    Huxley: NO!
    Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
    Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
    Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
    Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
    Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
    Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
    Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
    Huxley: You need to leave, John.
    Spartan: But Huxley.
    Huxley: Get out!
    Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.

    By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.

    Ants are the biggest issue round here. You deal.

    Never had much of an issue with ants. You can take the initiative and attack them preemptively. Put a little bit of Splenda in your yard. It apparently has a similar chemical composition to DDT, the pesticide. They think it's sugar, take it to the queen, and then everyone dies. It's hilarious. And I'm guessing they die happy, so it's probably more "humane" than Raid. But you still always have to keep a can of Raid be around for when you find one of those giant smurfing roaches WITH THE WINGS AND OH MY GOD I HATE THEM

    The law office I worked at in Hawaii had a HUGE ant/termite infestation. We would spray the building with pesticides once a month to try and keep it controlled, but all it did was make the creatures 3x their normal size. So instead of having a huge infestation of tiny insects we had a huge infestation of huge insects.
