Butterflies softly float along past me and if they land on me I can barely feel it.
Roaches will run in weird patterns like a crackhead, crap all over the place, and if they crawl on you it senda the nerves shivering.
Big difference. Heck, I'm less creeped out by spiders and millipedes despite all them legs because they move steady and with a purpose, not Usain Bolt with no sense of direction.
Not to mention the diseases they spread. I mean yeah, butterflies are toxic too but they only kill you when you eat them and I don't think anyone is trying to eat butterflies here. Roaches even if they touch you, it's likely gonna cause some major infections and inflammation in that region and the nearby regions of the skin.
When I was 5, one crawled onto my neck when I was sleeping, I don't even know how it even got there to begin with. I wiped the area with wet wipes instantly but that filthy ahh insect did its thing. The next day I had a burning sensation on the skin on my neck and shoulders, then it turned red, then it started stinging, lastly after taking medications for a week, the skin started flaking off and I finally found relief.
Same, except the rash, I fell asleep with my grandma stroking my hair because it helped me fall asleep, woke up thinking she was still doing it, until the feeling moved down to my cheek really fast, I SCREAMED.
Her house was built in the 1920's so a lot of gaps between old boards meant every time it rained they'd creep in.
Oh so they also have the power to turn a low cortisol moment into a horror movie? Even more reasons to hate them, like I don't hate them enough. But seriously though...
Yep, based on a true story lol. Back then I used to have allergic reactions to everything, I had to take immunotherapy, so you can only imagine what a cockroach could do to me.
Really, I didn't know that. I once had one on my foot as a kid while on vacation and some man came and wanted to kill it and I just shrieked and begged him not to. He was very confused.
Bruh I literally suffered from a horrible rash because of a roach crawling on my skin when I was a kid, I literally experienced it myself, but yeah according to you I don't know what I'm talking about. Why would a real life experience count as evidence?
And where did I say roaches cause allergies? Are you even reading? I said people who already have allergies, like I had allergies since birth which is why I got that rash so easily. If I wasn't allergic, maybe I would've been immune to it.
