Nintendo Wii Possibly Attracts Cockroaches
Nintendo is proud to claim the crown of fastest-selling consoles this November, and they can't seem to keep a good stock in stores, creating a huge demand for the tiny white consoles. However, new research may stop that trend cold. Some pest control professionals discovered something uncanny regarding the Wii: it attracts cockroaches "better than a four-week old pizza." Of course, this sounds absolutely preposterous, considering that the cockroaches do not have the most attuned hearing glands. However, the Wii is known to put out "air and ground vibrations", which in turn suck the cockroaches out of hiding just like that aforementioned four-week old pizza. This research has yet to be confirmed by anyone other than the independent laboratory that came to this conclusion.

lol, talk about a console being 'buggy'
wouldnt this apply for other consoles moreso then the Wii,
i swear my xbox would vibrate heaps more then a wii due to its old bearing fan,
more so to that point, doesnt that make really old dirty desktops super roach-attract'n machines?
If it's not cold enough, you're not going to get any snow.
If it's just right, you're going to get snow.
If it's too cold, you're going to get an ice storm.
useless research
some companies come with the stupidist shit ever just to discredit others. like with what nvidia did to ati about resolutions or some thing like that a few weeks back
i agree with u aswell hat, alot of research is pointless and proves absolutely useless information, then agan. zek has a good point, if its an exact vibration, then its possable that it could cause a critter problem. im sure that creative ppl like us can think of a solution pretty easily tho. how about a thick rubber mat to sit the wii on, wa-la problem solved..
but thenagain, i can already think of benefits from this.
'i am buying all my enemies wii's for christmas >:D moohahahbwahahahahhaa'
:laugh::laugh::laugh:
I think the stupidist attempt is the shortage conspiracy...Nintendo is losing 1.5 billion this year because of high demand...not on purpose.
Dirty hippies are in tern more likely to live in roach territory and are more likely to attract roaches with their dirty ways.
:laugh:
If you/your family members keep up with the house cleaning especially in area like your kitchen you will avoid the chance of there being a roach infestation, hence clean house no roaches & everything is in order according to the health & safety standards.
but if you are a living like a hobo & you do have a roach infestation & you dont shower at least once everynight then ask yourself one question......whens the last time you had food poisoning?
how could you bare to live in such a shithole? this is your home you eat sleep & cheat on your gf in these places. - keep it clean
I sleep here, I game here & I watch my X-rated in here but yet there are no roaches....only misquitos & moths & the ocasional spider that sneaks into my room which usually gets rambo'd by my BB gun.
yes I need to clean my room out but i work 5days a week & when it comes to cleaning on my days off I really cant be arsed. rather just sit in my big chair & got kill a few people in CoD4
- thats the only kinda 'Cleaning House' I do
Just remember there are a lot of ways to attract/detract animals. Smells, sounds, vibrations, light. It is possible Nintendo has found the Roach Attracter!
They should patent it and sell it around the world while they can, LoL.
The only way you are going to get rid of them is to do a chemical clean of the house, and block all concealed entries to the building.
Pipes and drains and electrical wiring between walls needs to be properly sealed so they cannot pass through. Get to work this weekend!
AND DONT BLAME THE PREVIOUS TENNANT! That's like saying, my car is dirty because the previous owner didnt clean it before I bought it.
chem trail sucks, guess i'll just clean anywhere i find em better.
