But might be a interesting read.
I found the bug

You know that saying 'That comptuer is full of bugs" Yah, well, its ment LITERALLY!
Standard job. Replace a broken laptop screen and dvd drive. shouldn't take much time right? Wrong.
I open up the laptop and... Dear god... Its loaded, LOADED, with COCKROACHES! Thankfully they were all dead...
So a simple, half hour job, ends up taking a lot longer because I now have to disassemble the entire thing and clean it.
But then i feel something crawling up my arm... And i see a few things crawling on the table and relize that some of them were still alive.
Yah. I really, really, hate cockroaches so I have a friend finish fixing the laptop.
For clarification, i didn't know what kind of bugs they were. The teacher put a live on in a jar and asked all the other teachers what kind of bug it was.
And i thought the time i found a mouse nest in my dads computer was disgusting. I have, unfortunently, been proven wrong.

How the heck did a bunch of cockroaches get into your laptop? No wonder they are called "computer bugs"! Glad you got it fixed, though. lolPosted February 23rd, 2011 at 02:22 AM by Meganium90

And that thing was declared a biohazard due to all the cockroach droppings left in it.
We've got it wrapped up in something like 3-4 bags, and we are going to ship it off to afganistan so the terrorists can use it in one of there bombs. get cleaned by people who know how to clean biohazardous stuff.Posted February 27th, 2011 at 11:44 PM by Mr. X
