...what it would be like to have chemicals dumped on me that made me spaz out before killing me.
it's not a totally random thought. i think it goes something like this...
global warming (or some other mystery) is giving us lots of rain after years of drought. the rain seems to be pushing cockroaches into our house (seriously!). you can kinda tell that they're outdoor roaches because of their large size. at any rate, more roaches in the house means more roaches to kill. sometimes a chancla is nearby and you can make em' go splat. other times it just feels better to grab the can of black flag.
the can of black flag has the words "kills on contact! (Las mata al instante!)" written on top. actually everything on the can is translated. but anyway, that's semi-false advertising. see, "kills on contact" should mean 0 seconds between spraying and death. what i've noticed is that there's always at least 30 seconds from the time you spray until the time they stop moving. many times they'll flip and keep moving their legs, but lots of times they don't flip and just run around bumping into things.
so i wonder...are they already dead in those last seconds of movement? is it a moot point?
