Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
no name
Today, I got up in the middle of the night to get a glass of water. I felt something get caught in my throat so I coughed and spluttered a bit. When I turned on the lights I discovered I'd coughed up a cockroach. FML

Today, I woke up with a dead cockroach and its guts all over my forehead. My boyfriend responded by laughing and saying "Poor guy, never had a chance to see the world." FML

Today, I woke up, showered, and began brushing my teeth. When I started to brush my tongue I gagged, like usual, and threw up a little. What's unusual? I threw up a cockroach. FML

Welcome!
Today, I was expecting lizards, spiders, and weird local insects in my hotel room. What I got was a cockroach on my toothbrush. A very tiny cockroach. FML

Today, I was studying for a big test I have next Tuesday in my room. I heard a creak in my ceiling but assumed it was nothing as my house is old. Thirty seconds later something fell from my air vent directly onto my head. It was a giant cockroach. FML

Morning!
Today, I finally got some sleep after an exterminator came yesterday and took care of our roach problem. I woke up and kissed my boyfriend good morning. Frowning, he told me I had something stuck on the corner of my mouth. It was a roach leg. Where is the rest of the roach? FML

You should really go to the doctor to make sure it didn't lay any eggs in your ear canal!!

Alright. Well. Safe to say I'll be sleeping with something covering my ears tonight.

One time my mom was on an internship at a hospital and had to dig a cockroach out of a kid's ear that had apparently been there for 3 months...

I slept with my head under the covers for YEARS after seeing that movie as a kid.

This happened to my friend, only he found out, many hours later, at the doctor's. He had gone to his junior college, where he realized the itching inside his ear could not be borne. He proceeded to call his mom to take him to a doctor, when he was fined by the college authorities for speaking on the mobile on premises.
