Not a spider thread

Saw this beast over on Digg...made me feel a whole lot better about the spider on my wall.

Try catching that under a glass...

(Wikipedia entry about it if you're interested)

Don't spiders have 8 legs?

Masterdog · 15 Sep 2007 at 20:27

They do...that's a crab.

Hence it not being a spider thread.

oh man, i'd be out there with a bat, and that thing would be in a boiling pot of water in the blink of an eye

edit: just read the wiki, its an endangered species, perhaps not then

Thought he was trying to be funny by luring everyone who hates spiders to his thread, happily titled "Not a spider thread". Meh.

She goes "I've not got a problem with crabs, you just pick them up" :rolleyes:

That's because it's not a creepy crawly... it's a crab!

Haha I love the wiki article

However, when the body is supported by dihydrogen monoxide, larger sizes are possible

They could have just wrote water

ROFL!

I wish I didn't open this thread.
When I clicked the link I thought to myself, "It's either a spider thread or something just as bad" >_< and it was something just as bad.
