The worst the ghosts can do is break small stuff, maybe little scratches and bruises while you sleep.

Roaches not as bad as Joe's apartment but are barely scared of the light and 1/3rd of them are waterbugs. Insectides only grant momentary reprieves.

Me personally I would take Ammityville before roaches

My wife is already convinced our house is haunted. If it is, all the ghost does it randomly turn on the TV and start youtube, so that's way better than roaches.

Imagine taking a bath if 1/3 of the cockroaches are waterbugs. They could be putting on a show for you!

With a ghost, you are putting on a show for the ghost. It's watching everything you do!

Slimer seems like he might be a bigger pain in the ass than roaches. With roaches you can at least protect food by sticking it in a container or the fridge.

Thats not going to stop a ghost.

And if they leave slime all over the place that seems like it would be a real pain in the ass.

The ghosts of cockroaches.

Honestly roaches are only as filthy as the house they're in, so provided I keep a clean house, it would be relatively fine.

....plus they're kinda cute.

Some folks keep cockroaches as pets too so... train 'em, get them to do my bidding, contract out for light superhero work.

I will take a ghost any day over roaches. I've seen and heard enough to know that it is traumatizing af.

Prefer to be cursed my entire life seeing ghosts if that means roaches disappear from this planet.

...That's actually a hard one.

It would be really hard for me to go back to living in a place with roaches.

Ghosts. If i bring someone home to a roach-infested apartment they're going to be grossed out and probably never want to come over again. With a ghost, I can at least act surprised since it isn't my fault the ghost is there.

The biggest downside to ghosts is the existential crisis I'd feel knowing there might be some sort of existence after death. I'd find that pretty horrifying.

Otherwise, definitely prefer ghosts over roaches.

As an aside, I feel like I'm met a lot of people who get legitimately angry at the subject of ghosts. Like, someone who probably doesn't believe in ghosts makes a joke about ghosts at Halloween or something and the other guy gets into a huff.

You can befriend ghosts and spirits, or at least get a civil relationship going.

One of my defining memories as a kid was visiting family in flordia and I was out on the porch after the sunset goofing around and a waterbug hit in the face. I thought i had gotten punch, and i looked down at what hit me and i ran in the house.

You can go to your local hardware store to buy products to deal with roaches. For ghosts you'll need to find an exorcist and you'll probably go through hundreds of fraudsters before you find someone legit.

Probably, but unfortunately my tiny ass apartment can only accommodate ghost iguanas and small gators. Maybe a baby triceratops ghost if it leaves its head outside of a window.

I'd imagine dino ghosts wander on the rich side of town in the mansions they have there.

Are the ghosts actively trying to scare me or do they just do whatevs and sometimes break things? I'm not interested in a house of jump scares but just having a ghost hanging out might not be awful.

Roaches. I don't care what the roaches see me doing. Those ghosts will absolutely be telling others though.
