When my wife and I were newly weds we lived in not the nicest set of apartments in town. Around two thirty one morning, I felt the gentle caress of my new bride gently sweep across my cheek and down to my neck where she began tickling me. I reached up to take her hand intent on an amorous awakening only to find no hand but the biggest darn German cockroach I have ever seen. I screamed like a little girl while levitating out of the bed, scaring my wife half to death.
I have no love to give to cock-a-roachies.

Growing up in Canada, I never saw a real, live cockroach until my first trip to Mexico. Now that we live in Japan, they are very common (and BIG too). The first time we had one in the house, my wife was so freaked out, she was standing on the couch, screaming. I tried to catch it but as soon as I got close, it took flight and flew across to the other side of the room, all the while my wife is screaming, "OHMYGOD!THEYGOTWINGS!OHMYGOD!"

Never found one in my coffee cup though. The closest I've come is a co-worker sadly informing me that we would no longer be eating a restaurant we used to go to all the time for lunch because apparently, the week before, they had been there for lunch and got served a cockroach in their kim chi -- the restaurant didn't even have the courtesy to apologize.

Where I go camping in Ontario I find roaches just about everywhere I set up camp. BLECH.

Anyway.

Here's a good one from just a couple days ago! I went out to dinner with a colleague from work the other night, and we decided to eat at Friendly's restaurant. I ordered a sort of steak stir fry served over rice. I took a few bites of it and decided it tasted very strongly of fish. I asked my dinner companion to taste it and tell me if she thought it tasted odd, and she agreed that it did. I'd never sent food back in my life, but quickly decided I could not stomach this odd tasting food. I continued picking around at my food until the server returned so that I could complain. As I did so I found an inch long piece of paper in my food. It turned out to be part of the paper wrapper that had surrounded the steak. Written on the piece of paper was the "use by" date, which was out dated! Blech!
