first seeing it. you think it’s coming to get you. all bodily functions stop and you just stare down the spider THEN YOU GO ALL OUT ON THAT MOTHERFUCKER you think you killed it. then you see it again. repeat
I only freak out if it starts moving quickly, and I lose track of it. If I can see it clearly, then I just catch it and put it outside. :/
If I saw a cockroach I'd run and wait until it somehow left the room. Or, I would just run at it with an axe like in step 4.
Cockroaches can survive a nuclear bomb, the most powerful man-made force ever. You honestly think a hatchet is going to be able to do anything to that sort of resistance?
