I remember reading this cockroach FAQ by this entomologist who was like “haha yes, though I’ve given my life over to the study of these creatures, I totally accept that you kill them on sight and would exterminate them all if you could!”

And maintained a cheerful tone throughout, except when it got to like “Gee Dr. Insect, if ants are strong enough to lift multiples of their body weight, how much can a cockroach lift?”

And he’s like “That’s a stupid question, I am so tired of that question, cockroaches don’t even have a lifting and carrying behavior so how would we even test that, you idiot, you absolute moron.”

Was this the FAQ? http://www.bio.umass.edu/biology/kunkel/cockroach_faq.html

Yeah I think so
