    I’m not following the trail here. What does one person’s applying for a job have to do with another person’s job prospects (and what does that have to do with Sandy getting rid of Blondie?)?

    Common Misconception

    Cockroaches will not survive a nuclear blast.

    The thermal plume will incinerate them along with all other organic lifeforms. If shielded from or outside the thermal plume, their small size and flexible exoskeleton will permit them to survive greater atmospheric overpressure (blast wave) than most animals, but 30 psi overpressure will still kill them.

    What is true is that they wold be better able to survive the aftereffects of a limited nuclear war. Nuclear fallout, nuclear winter, contaminated and/or limited water and food supplies, etc.

    Yeah, cockroach or a twinky. Either way not very complementary
