<p>Um, thanks? There’s no editing after 5 min. I usually find one atrocious grammar mistake in my posts after the editing window.</p>
<p>I mean, Random Hall is literally falling apart. Thankfully, it’s getting some love over the summer and should be in pretty good shape for the fall. (It’s also getting fumigated! Yay!)</p>

<p>^ My daughter’s apartment in Cambridge has a house centipede (at least one), but because house centipedes eat bedbugs along with everything spiders eat, she views it as a useful ally and house-cleaning partner. If she had mice, she’d probably just get a cat.</p>
<p>^I generally can’t deal with long bugs, so a house centipede would not be my friend. (On this note, I would like to say that I’ve never seen a silverfish in an MIT dorm. Maybe they don’t life in Massachusetts?) But sometimes I do very much wish I lived in a cat friendly dorm! More so for the mouse-eating than anything else. Pet rules are pretty much unenforced, but people have allergies, so cats are best avoided.</p>

Alas, I can confirm that I have seen many silverfishes at Mass General. But if it helps your mental state, I can whip up a conjecture about them living in Boston but not Cambridge? :)</p>
<p>@ WiseGuy: BC. My friends in other dorms do not tell me much better stories though.</p>
<p>@mollie: Oh no! I’m just going to pretend that they don’t know how to cross the Charles.</p>
