Also, do Madagascan hissing cockroaches really hiss? What does it sound like? Is it loud?
They do indeed, unusual for an insect. They expel air through holes along their abdomens to create the sound. It's used as competitive behaviour between males during mating season, the louder roach is going to be the bigger and stronger too. More energy efficient than actually throwing down. They also hiss when feeling threatened, which would certainly be rather startling if you weren't expecting it.

Teach him to type and he can IM with me.

I can do that too. Well, from near the abdomen, anyway. Doesn't seem to help with the mating, though.

I'll heal eventually. Hopefully. *sniff*
Today could be themed "It's not me, it's YOU."

Oh thank god. My Chinese food has arrived! For about an hour there, I was convinced that I would go mad from hunger and gnaw the limbs from hapless coworkers wandering into my reach.
