Roaches, but I suppose enough bug bombs would work either way
A few hundred dollars will take care of the roach problem
The human is the biggest wild card situation yet and you’re immediately going into fight or flight no matter what
Unless the person is there to kill me they win easily
Call police they leave issue solved.
Tell me you’re not black without telling me you’re not black
Dead or alive?
1000 roaches? So like… more toys for my cat?
roach squishing noises
I’ve had roaches before. I’d pick the person 10 out of 10 times.
Same.
Only a hard choice if you’ve never dealt with roaches. 1000 roaches is enough to convince me that the house would never be free of them ever, roaches are incredible in the way they survive and thrive. Unless you made sure you killed every single last one and their offspring, you ain’t getting rid of them.
At least I know how to kill the roaches and dispose of the bodies. Plus, no one cares if I kill the roaches.
Depends. Are they sexy?

The roaches, I mean.
I live in an apartment building, I’ll take the person. Roaches won’t stick to the attic.
Person
Maybe if it was 10 roaches?
Person otherwise
Do we even know if this person has outside connections?
Maybe I can hire them pennies on the dollar
I would force them to do the work that I loathe doing when I web Dev, repeatedly making pages or posts or whatever, they get a home and wage I get to live happy
to think that there’s probably someone in just about any city living with both.
how friendly is the person?
Average. The roaches are also average friendliness.
Do they chip in for rent?
a person, I only have to exterminate one large thing vs 1000 tiny things that could potentially crawl up my pee hole in my sleep.
no thanks.
How wide is your urethra that a roach can fit up there?
doesn’t matter, they love warm moist dark cracks.
that’s why they’re called cockroaches
No it isn’t. Cockroach is derived from the Spanish “cucaracha” which comes from “cuca” which means “butterfly caterpillar” and is apparently onomatopoeic in origin.
Also the idea of them crawling into your urethra is a myth like earwigs and ears.
I don’t speak Spanish I only know American and I know we call them cockroaches.
idk how narrow Spanish urethras are, but it’s a real problem over here in the USA. I’ve had to put tape on the tip of my penis when I go to sleep since I can remember just to keep the little cocksuckers out of my penis.
Hey I learned this earlier today! Entomology is so interesting.
So is etymology, and in that earlier comment @GreenKnight23@lemmy.world is technically practicing both.
You can kill one person. You can’t kill 1000 roaches.
Bro, it’s not a CEO, they have human rights.
But what if they are 🧐
In that case I definitely choose the 1000 roaches
not for long
