Just had a BIG shock!!

[Mat]

Funnily enough, I had one of my worst nightmares come true last night...

I was driving home and spotted a spider crawling along the underside of my sun visor. Now I'm no arachnophobe but I'd rather they were outside if you know what I mean. So with thoughts of this thing falling into my lap, me swerving, crashing and dying, I stopped as soon as I could and smacked it only to have it drop into my lap. At this point I was not off the road (I managed to get to a long, straight, empty bit though) so had to charge off to find somewhere I could get out... que fast driving, heavy breaking and quick exiting expecting it to be crawling somewhere on my person. I found it curled up on the seat in the end so just brushed it out of the car.

The potential for that to go horribly wrong doesn't bear thinking about as far as I'm concerned...

Maybe he was an IT spider and wanted to develop a new 'WEB' site?

Substituted a spider with a pasty, but you get the picture.

 

[I get around]

I don't mind spiders, just pick it up and shove it out the window, house spiders are tiny in comparison to some of the things i've seen.

i use to keep about 20 tarantulas a few years back and the one i liked the most was called an Indian ornamental with a leg span of about 7-8 inchs

i hate spiders I saw a massive on at the corner of my eye run from my cupboard out to under my desk, I admit I jumped and screamed like a girl because normally they aint that big in the UK.

The next day another one came out and did the exact same thing but wasnt as big so i didnt make as much of a fuss, i just screamed.

 

[mrk]

but did you scream like a girl?

I would have assassinated it swiftly with the force of an angry god.

A really quite big one was in my room recently, I hit it with a slipper 5 times then grinded the slipper into the floor to make sure lol.

I know spiders do good (in killing flies etc) but frankly, one less isn't gonna make me lose sleep at night.

with any slug , spider mortal kombat is the only option

Man up. Bitch slap the spider onto a BBQ, light BBQ with aviation fuel, cook until charred and then eat it.

Alpha. The way. The only way.

A true Alpha male will just eat it whilst it's trying to run from his mouth.

Apparantly you're supposed to dump spiders about 20 metres away from your house otherwise they'll find their way back in.

It'll be back.

just dont open the door when it rings the bell.

I saw a huge bee yesterday funny see them all summer but something about seeing a huge one mid december that freaked me out....

It was trying to get into my house as well. Must have been cold poor blighter...
