Garden Shed Spider

I have to say, I used to be really scared of spiders, I couldn't stand any of them. These days I'm much better with them...

... but the house spider still really freaks me out. I'm not sure if it's because the legs are so long, or because they are so fast, or whatever. All I know is that I am terrified of them :eek:

Anything with eight eyes is clearly an alien. Kill it whilst you still can.

I had one in my hand this morning getting the net from the store this morning.

I had one on my hand once and I was looking at it and the back end opened up and hundreds of little baby ones came out!!! Was pretty mental!

Tickled.

#Q$%%&$#% Why do I make myself look at these threads!!!!!!!!
Its a sick twist on free will that if you have a fear of spiders you MUST look at pictures when someone posts them. I'm now going to be having tickly skin and freaking out whenever I see a tomato stalk for like 2 days!

Why are blokes such big girls when it comes to spiders?
Even my daughter picks them up and puts them outside -

Spiders don't bother me at all, but a wasp comes near me and I turn into the campest looking fat bloke you've ever seen

Surely you understand why an irrational fear is irrational?
