Creepy Cockroach

Go To

This cockroach must have been an omen foreshadowing the string of misfortunes which filled the rest of my day.
"Omen" from Nobody Here

If you see one or two cockroaches at a bar, you can bet there are thousands more. When there's a roach infestation, they emit a strong musk, which draws more roaches, forming massive colonies like the ones at Headhunters— inside the bar, under the stage, and behind the bamboo wall. Cockroaches don't just seem filthy — they are filthy and carry up to thirty different diseases, including salmonella and dysentery, which they can spread to glassware and countertops, leaving no visible signs of bacteria. With a roach-infested bar, even the glasses that seem clean are heavily contaminated.
