This early morning, at 7 a.m., it’s Mr. Dew versus Cockroach! Out of the room, Mr. Dew walks as he spots the greatest enemy of his career. It’s the Cockroach.
Attached with 6 legs and a pair of feelers, it quickly move itself towards Mr. Dew. Man, that’s totally cheating. The game hasn’t begin and Cockroach made the first move!
Not to be outwitted by Cockroach, Mr. Dew stepped back into his bedroom. Cockroach looked at Mr. Dew and is no where near afraid. Angrily, Cockroach made a repeated charge at Mr. Dew.
Mr. Dew escapes in his bedroom! Coward. While escaping into his bedroom, Mr. Dew also suffered a blow when the leg of the table created a direct impact with the leg of Mr. Dew. The impact caused Mr. Dew’s life to drop about 20% and set Cockroach grinning from 4 meters away.
Cockroach then back off to a darker area by leaving Mr. Dew’s bedroom. Mr. Dew sees this as an opportunity and grabbed his water bottle to spill cold water to Cockroach. Cockroach’s body proves to be water-proof. That scared Cockroach a little and it went out of Mr. Dew’s bedroom.
Mr. Dew rushes to the kitchen to prepare for his second assault, leaving the dimwitted Cockroach to wonder where has its enemy gone to! Mr. Dew then filled a cup with a third full of extremely hot water.
Armed with the new weapon, Mr. Dew charged at Cockroach and poured hot water onto it. Cockroach suffered a slight blow and hides at a corner. Mr. Dew grinned as Cockroach made a wrong move.
Mr. Dew got more hot water and spilled it towards the corner. The Cockroach suffered a worse blow, the water must have scalded Cockroach and impaired its movement! Mr. Dew hurried to the kitchen to prepare for his next attack.
Mr. Dew then did the same thing and spill water on Cockroach! The Cockroach escapes! It’s a new secret weapon that is uncategorized. It’s a set of wings. The Cockroach flew! Mr. Dew find refuge in the kitchen while getting more hot water.
It appears that the Cockroach isn’t flying very well itself, probably due to the previous attack that Mr. Dew made. The last and final blow was made to it by using Mr. Dew’s unreleased move - using half a cup of hot water! [Just now was one third.]
That really hurt Cockroach real badly, it’s fluttering on the ground. Mr. Dew, being a show off, decides to present yet another unreleased move as the spectators cheered. It’s called “Full Cup of Hot Water”!
Mr. Dew aimed at the Cockroach to deliver the final blow. The Cockroach didn’t die! It went towards the balcony. It’s out of the arena! Oh my god, Mr. Dew won.
Rest in peace, you pesky pest.

by tak (Sep 17, 2004 at 9 PM)Hot water as a cockcroach killling weapon? I thought ppl usually use insecticide/pesticide or something, but the pests may gain resistance against this…
by Serene (Sep 17, 2004 at 10 PM)hot water is an excellent way. environmental friendly except for the cleaning up part later…
This is quite a funny post, haha
by sky (Sep 18, 2004 at 2 AM)tak: I’ll interview you soon, lol. I wonder what happened
Serene: I do have pesticide, I have this huge green can of Baygon. But I always feel that spraying on them is equivalent to shortening my life span. Yes, the indeed got killed but I have to suffer hours for the odour to clear off.
sky: Cleaning up part? Huh? My science teacher taught me that water evaporates.
by Mr. Dew (Sep 18, 2004 at 7 AM)Ooh I’m slow in commenting, but hahahhaha. This is funny. Now I know of a new way to kill cockroaches.
But I think I’ll be the one to hole up in one corner when it starts to fly…

by YingRu (Sep 20, 2004 at 4 PM)oh, i don’t like the flying part too, it’s the climax, i ran for my dear life, lol
by Mr. Dew (Sep 20, 2004 at 8 PM)cockroaches take 4 days to drown in a toiletbowl. i tested it meself. but still, after the fourth day, when i poked it, it STILL moved. so i flushed it. and cockroaches FLOAT. yeah. it took me quite a few tries to drown it. hopefully. the most effective method i know of so far is to squish it. grind it under your victorious heel! WRHAHAHA! the guts will spatter onto the floor, but the ants love it. not like i love ants, but they clean better than maids. at least for roachy insides. yeah. let me tell you something i did to a cockroach before. i was returning home in the evening, and it was on the wall. so i swiped at it with my foot, and it hit! the roach was smashed on the wall. i left it there. sha yi jing bai. but, the next day, everything was gone. thank the ants. ._. yeah. anyway, even if you miss, it’ll drop onto the floor and you can scramble after it to smash it.
thats just about the only good thing about the cockroach: having the pleasure of stomping it.
by zakei (May 17, 2006 at 10 PM)Stepping onto them? I didn’t dare to do that. The thought of it just creeps me.
by Mr. Dew (May 18, 2006 at 12 PM)[...] My murder weapon of choice is hot water. After I documented it on September 16th, 2004, this method gained popularity with my family. And we are all ambassadors of killing cockroaches with hot water. Each cockroach killed is one frightened human being lesser! I should get the Nobel Prize for Peace, I tell ya. [...]
