Burn down the house and move elsewhere. There's another thousand behind the walls anyway.

Oh god... hope I never get a hole in my wall...
I'd cage it and flush it, that is if I work up the nerve to get anywhere close to it...

it happens all the time, i just step on them.

There aren't many ways to kill a disgusting bug, especially if it's one that's no bigger than you're thumb. If I were to leave a sarcastic comment here to state the fact that killing a bug like this is just plain common sense, only to follow one of the rules of the website, (which is too have fun), I would have said...:

What else would you do...? Teach it tricks?!

*VinceNeille: Roll over, Roll over, Sam. Come on, you can do it!
*Sam (Cockroach): Stares at me blankly and confused.

But on a serious note, what else can you, (speaking in general) possibly do?

Squash it or Spray it to death!!
If you're looking for a whole story about it, then I'm sorry. I've got nothing.

I would capture it, put it in a metal box and ship it to your house.

But seriously, I'd kill it and then maybe disinfect everything.

I'd think "WHUT? Cockroaches aren't in this country"
Then smush it with my shoe.

I'd probably kill it, flush it down the toilet, then call an exterminator. Orrrrrrr I could gear up with lots of cans of raid and take on the swarm myself. > While I take captives and open a cockroach circus and charge and entry fee of $5, genius money scheme is it not?

Kill it in the most painful, and fun, way possible at the moment.

Scream and try to find a shoe to step on it or some spray. I can't let them live!

Funny, this just happened to my house
My sister started freaking out cauz it went under her bed, my dad started to get mad at her and flushed it while I sat in my room laughing

I would get flyspray and a match and light that sucker up (not caring if I burn the house down)
DIE YOU SPAWN OF SATAN, DIE!

This question is a no brainer! I would toss a turtle at it!
