" I heard about the PS4’s roach problem at an independent console repair shop on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. XCubicle is a clean and well-kept business where locals drop off their broken consoles to get diagnosed and repaired. Its co-founder, Patrick Che, was listing the types of repair issues he encounters on a day-to-day basis: coins inside disc drives, 3DS mods gone wrong. That’s when he pointed to the “roach bags,” black garbage bags heaped up in the corner of the room.

“You see those bags?” he asked. “Those are bags full of roaches. Those are all dead by now.” Che added that roach-infested PS4s are so common that XCubicle now charges a $25 “roach fee.” They get at least one each week. Other console repairmen interviewed say that at least half of the PS4s they receive are loaded with roaches. "

" The PS4’s design accommodates roaches better than other consoles’ because its ventilation grates are wider. Those vents are located at the bottom of the console, so roaches can get in with ease. Also, according to repair professionals, the PS4’s insides gets hotter than the Xbox One’s because of its internal power supply. Warm, in an enclosed space and close to the floor, PS4s are great roach nesting grounds."

Why?

I'm being a dingus. Jokes are always less funny when they need to be explained, and sometimes, never funny to begin with. :)

That's actually hilarious! Roaches living in electronics. I never would have thought of it.

Clickbait.

The original Wii had the same problem

A console with holes big enough for insects to get in, will get insects climbing inside if your house is gross as fuck? who knew.

That made me think of that mtv movie. I think it was called Joe's apartment. I thought it was funny. Your thread and what you linked would be a good way to poll/test people to see how many people read the stuff that is linked as a source.

You're trying too hard.

Eww
