To the hotel I stayed at Sunday night… I should have known something was amiss when you did not want my credit card to take an imprint for the charges when I checked in and asked for cash. Your hotel is a cinder block roomed fucking bed bug infested shit hole. Being exhausted and late I had nowhere else to go. I woke up at 3 am with this crawling sensation on my side. I jumped up, put on the lights, pulled back the sheets and there were bugs racing away on the sheets. Fucking disgusting! I caught two of the little fuckers in a glass and brought them down to you to show you. You better get that fucking place fumigated folks. I know now that it’s probably a mom and pop place to stay, lower class and slightly above hourly rental rates. Perhaps you have not much money, but seriously, spend a few bucks. Fix it up. At least fucking fumigate and TRY to get rid of those fucking bugs! You asked me how I knew they were bed bugs. Well, I showed you the picture I got off the internet on my Blackberry after I found the little fuckers in the bed. If I caught two there is thousands in that place! You told me you never heard of bed bugs before. Watch the news folks! Read the papers! CALL AN EXTERMINATOR! —Tourist

  3. There’s a Monty Python skit in there somewhere.

    “Oh those aren’t bedbugs, sir. Those are endangered Eastern Pygmy Land Crabs. Quite rare and beautiful in their own way, sir.”

  12. That’s so disgusting. I was unfortunate enough to live in one of those hideous purple buildings that make our skyline look like shit, and the entire building was infested with bed bugs. We were able to get out of the lease since it’s a “health concern”.
    Anyway, please register the bed bug site so your fellow travellers are warned not to stay there… And I hope you didn’t bring any of the little devil bugs home with you.

  13. them little motherfuckers are just about everywhere. and they drop off clothes, animals and anything they get tired of hanging on. i know of a woman in dartmouth, had them brouht in on her fucking cat. seems it was friends with one in the area, and got too close. 1,200 bucks later, she might be okay, but got rid of cat in bargain, just to be safe. first time i heard tell of a cat being a carrier to these fucking things.

  14. Kim, you’d think that such sites existed, but I checked and couldn’t find any.

    Three posts made me look 😉

  15. Too bad. It would be great to be able to register perverts, their photos and their addresses before moving into a neighbourhood.
    I don’t get it…
    we have a site to warn us about bugs, a bounty on coyotes’ heads, and on and on, but when it comes to human predators, who can be more deadly and who attack more often then any other animal which threatens us, we can’t protect ourselves with shared information because the perverts rights take precedence over our safety.

  18. Kim – as I was bored, and nosey, I used the US one and put LA and California as my search parameters – the map lit up like a Christams Tree full of pervs and assorted scumbags!
    Pity we don’t have one here, include politicians in the database though.

  19. I tried that bedbugregistry site but no matter what I do I can not post the hotel. Won;t allow Halifax for some reason. Perhaps cause it is an American site. I hope you folks can figure out the “Motor Inn” I am speaking of.
