I was once told that white roaches where that color because they just got married.
A childhood belief about creepy crawlies

others believed things like this
- I thought that to get married, your spouse had to have the same eye color as you did.Anon
- I used to think that roaches were aliens because it was hard to kill them. I'm still not so sure I was wrong.— Dev
- My poop was always around the same color as my skin so I assumed white people's poop was white.— jaycee
- I used to believe that before color television, people only saw in black an white.— CD
- I used to think that everything was once in black and white untill they invented color tv.Anon
- I used to think that black and white TV and movies had originally been in color, but had faded with age.
