    I love these! My favorite one is, “if you were forced to shove a whole pineapple up your ass, as a matter of life and death, would you insert it top or bottom first?”

    Keep in mind, you’ll need to get it back out once it’s in.

      Bottom first. The leaves would serve as a flared end and a handle. You’d want it to be ripe-ish I imagine. Ripe enough to have a little give, but not ripe enough that the leaves come out too easily.

      Pineapples also come in different sizes, I’ve seen some homegrown ones posted on Lemmy that seem…manageable.

        Just keep in mind that the hard, pointed spikes on the outside face up, so you’ll be pulling it out against them.

        If you do top first you get the harder part over with, and then have plenty of blood to lubricate the way out.

          It’s a horrific image but it’s the right way to go. You’ll simply never, under any circumstances, make it work the other way.

          I mean it won’t work either way but if you don’t fucking die by the end of it at least you could theoretically get patched up.

      I mean, if it has to go in whole, does it need to come out whole? Or can we cut that bitch up once it’s in?

    The roaches. At least you know their true nature, not surprising to find them there and, in days of high frustration, one can go up and stomp a few for that crunchy sound of bug demise.

        Ive dealt with a few though, its not really as bad or as hard as most people think. Its just about being thorough and sustained, you arent going to get them all in one hit. It just takes a few months of regularly repeating the basics of bombing, baits and spray.

          I would consider anything that takes months to fix to be pretty bad.

        Depends on the ambient temperature, no? I was under the understanding that roaches don’t typically fly in northern states because it’s colder.

          Just the fact that they can is enough for me to avoid them. Ain’t showing up with a thermometer to see if they decide to fly today 😔

      Personally, I’d go for the person. Roach phobia entirely not factoring in here.

      My attic is over a detached garage. If someone can access that space somehow, and wants to live there, whatever. It’s roomy enough to be fairly comfortable, tho you can’t stand up straight, and it’s insulated with electric outlets, so I’m not suuuuper likely to find a frozen person in spring. Not great, but as long as they don’t leave a mess or whatever, meh, doesn’t harm me any beyond electrical use. I probably wouldn’t even find out about it for a long time, since I never go up there; the ladder is duct-taped where it cracked at some point, and I can’t be bothered to replace it.

      Roaches, however, would not stay contained to the garage. That’s a deal-breaker.

    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.

    person, though a much more difficult encounter it’d probably cost nothing to get them out of there, and the likehood of them coming back is much lower. all it’d take for the roaches to come back is the exterminator missing 2 or 4 of them

      It’s my understanding that gel works better, that bug bombs just make them scatter to other units if you live in an apartment building.

        It’s hard to apply the gel as they may fight back, but gassing them is a better bet, unless they have a gasmask. But in that case I guess they may also have a knife, so the gel is still a nogo.

          Jesus you folks must have wild roaches in Denmark. Sounds like “don’t go out at night” or “make sure your gun is loaded before entering the woods” kind of thing. Stay safe.

            Ah yes, our fearsome Danish roaches - the mighty Germanic cockroach, terror of the Nordic regions! These tiny warriors measure a mere 13mm, but their aggressive nature more than makes up for it. If left unchecked, they’ll conduct midnight drills in your attic, their tiny jackboots keeping you awake all night. And you better watch out - your whole family could succumb to carbon monoxide poisoning when they fire up their miniature Panzer divisions for their annual invasion of Poland.

            To be honest though, I actually had to research cockroaches in Denmark because I’ve never heard of anyone having problems with them here.

          Lol.

          All the person has to do to avoid arrest is be calm and assertive; if he insists that you invited him, that he paid you rent, that it’s his house, here’s the police response:

          “That’s a civil matter, you’re going to have to call a lawyer.”

          If he’s competent, he may even have a deed with the town’s seal already in it. Anyone can file anything in the land records. It’s up to title holders to protect their titles and clear any fraudulent entries.

            While true, if they’re “living” there, they’re most likely in the attic or crawl space or something. Or they have no items of their own. Anything is possible and there are always outliers, but the chances are pretty low they got set up enough to convince people they’re legitimately there.

            P.s. going to check my basement…

      At least I might be able to reason with them and offer food and comfort. Roaches are just like “hey there, see you in your ventilation system!”.
