On the upside, I did make a sound rather like the onomatopoeia in the thread title. So there is that.

Heh!
Oh, and I originally let it out on the window-sill, but later changed my mind and killed it. Because for all I know, that insect came from a different eco-system, and the window was right next to my parents' fruit trees, and... better safe than sorry.

Wouldn't usually like squishing even bugs but yeah, could have been one of those types of insects that plant their eggs in stuff like fruit and/or other life forms...
