Dance of death (spray)
Why does insect extermination have to be dull?

the death dance spray is a cunning mix of insect amphetamine and nerve gas. It ensures that the last few seconds of creepy crawly's pitiful existence is fleeting moment of fun for our exosceletal friends and a top rib tickler for their backboned warm blooded executors.

Not only does it get rid of nasty pests, it also provides some excellent material for home videos.

       Most fly sprays I've seen *are* nerve gases.

       I guess I don’t understand. Doesn’t it already do this...isn’t this the typical result of spraying a bug with Raid?

The dance of death is a horrible thing, but worse is the flight of fate, which sometimes happens when I’m spraying one of those brown-winged critters crawling around on the ceiling molding. One landed on my back yesterday as I was running away, and I did a dance of some kind. It wasn’t pretty.

       When you use this stuff, and the bug gleefully runs behind the fridge, is the spray working or not? With knock-down spray, one can be confident the bug is dead, not just on an acid trip.

       Yuckety puckety. Get it done with and flush 'em. None of this dancing about.

       Regular bug spray sometimes does this.

       Indeed many bug sprays are nerve agents. Insects share the same set of neurotransmitters with us, so Humans can do this same amusing funky-chicken when hit with nerve gas. I could describe a quite recent use if anyone would enjoy hearing about it. Sorry but I don’t have a movie.
Let’s just put [pokia] into a big bottle with a lot of bed bugs and film that. It is dangerous to get folk’s low emotions roused; never know how it will turn out.
Anyway, [marked–for–deletion] because both nerve gas bug spray and snuff films are baked.

       When you spray cockroaches with some of the commercial products used by exterminators they will often try to climb up things. The person doing the spraying is often the target of their attention. If he doesn't have the bottom of his coveralls (overalls) closed tightly then the ensuing dance (as he shares his clothing with twenty or so hyperactive cockroaches) can be quite amusing.

       Oh man, my mom just bit my dad's head off.   

       Oh that's too bad...wanna go get sprayed? It'll take your mind off things.   

       Oh, I don't know...   

       C'mon! I'm buying.   

       Well, alright. Let's go.

       Why not execute people by giving them a heroine overdose?

       Would that be like having to watch too many news clips about Pfc. Jessica Lynch?

       It only takes one, to overdose, [FJ].
