Roaches are attracted to the color black, amirite?

Over in newyorkers, futurebird has encountered her first flying NYC roach. May God have mercy on her soul/apartment. People comment with similar horror stories and reassurance.

But the peace can't last for long. penelopexxx, you see, has never had that kind of problem. It's because she doesn't live in the projects because she's not black. Because black people crave squalor.

It's kind of small, but it's the kind of stupid that makes you go "What? Did she just - I'm sorry, what?"

Edit #1: One time, in a bio lab, we had to cut the leg off of a cockroach and do some crazy electrical experiments with it. Tru story. I flipped out and couldn't even watch until the leg was securely separated from the body by 5 feet. This was the first of many times I squealed like a little girl in a laboratory of college students.
