Spiders

[Invincible Summer]

I personally freak out every time I see a spider. They must be banished to the gulags in post-revolutionary society to make spider-silk clothing for everyone.

[Yazman]

Spiders scare the shit out of me but they're fucking so cool. I want to get a pet tarantula one day.

[ÑóẊîöʼn]

Spiders are awesome creatures. I wonder what a sapient spider would be like?

[NecroCommie]

I prefer snake love.

[Stranger Than Paradise]

I really don't mind them, I like picking them up and watch them scuttle about. I love the way they move.

[Communist Theory]

I've only freaked out once when I saw a spider and thats while I was spelunking, cave spiders are huge.

[jake williams]

Spiders are good to have around. They clean up flies, mites etc.

[Patchd]

Unlucky for anyone with a spider phobia, they're quite nice creatures, unlike slugs:glare:

[Jack]

I have severe arachnaphobia. To the point where I get shakes if I see one across the room, sometimes I cant even kill them and I just run out of the room.

[hugsandmarxism]

I have arachnophobia. I'm getting better at dealing with spiders, but if one lands on my shoulder or something, I'll freak the fuck out. :crying:

[Rjevan]

I don't like them very much and I used to be scared of them but nowadays I get on with them.

[Dóchas]

man i hate spiders!!! i woke up one morning with this huge hairy one crawling down my arm and i just wondered where else had it crawled? like my face or something!!

*shivers*

[Dóchas]

Spiders are creepy crawly insects from hell!

well technically they are not insects ;) but ye they can go to hell

[MilitantAnarchist]

Spiders are our mates... my theory explained....
Fascists and capitalists theories are shit, and people who feed off them are tossers....
Flies feed on shit,
Spiders eat flies
Spiders are our mates haha

LOL never thought of it that way! I suddenly have a higher opinion of spiders. Long live our eight-legged comrades! :lol:

[LOLseph Stalin]

I'm Arachnophobic. When I see a spider I scream and freak out. Once there was a massive spider in my room. My dad heard me and had to come check up on me. He then killed the spider once he realized what was up. I'm such a wimp sometimes. D:

[Redmau5]

I don't mind spiders, as long as they're not in my room at night. If I see one, I won't kill it, but I'd still prefer if they stayed well away from me.

[Angry Young Man]

This isn't very reassuring. If, at war, we have a camp in the woods, then most of the company will squeal like pigs for a spider.

[TheCultofAbeLincoln]

I like them, if for no other reason then most women I know are scared shitless by them. Then I get to kill them.

Makes me feel like a strong, brave man.

That's right baby, you don't need to worry. I'll protect you.

[Jazzratt]

Spiders terrify the living shit out of me, I can't stand the fuckers and they terrify me. However I think they are fascinating and amazing creatures, they interest me no end. It's a really weird piece of cognitive dissonance.

[jake williams]

No spider wants to hurt a human. Spiders are one of the most important pest-control organisms in the world for humans, still. You can have spiders or you can have the bubonic plague. Those are your two choices.

[TheCultofAbeLincoln]

You sound like Charlotte...

[jake williams]

[Coggeh]

I never kill them but i know how you feel :(


My gf once in the middle of intimacy said theirs a spider on the bed (joking) and i wouldnt go back to the bed cause i was so freaked out :(

Meh, we have a cure for the bubonic plague.

I would take the bubonic plague and have something else replace the spider as a pest controller.

You would fucking hate spiders too if you woke up in the middle of the night with a big old wolf spider sitting on your chest and staring into your face. Friend had a close call with a black widow the other week on top of that...

Used to get these fuckers in my hair all the time when I was little. Spin webs between the trees..... uck

I'm gonna leave it to Ranma to explain this one

She lectures Wilbur, the pig, pretty early on about how Spiders save the planet from being overridden by bugs.

I can't believe I still remember that...it was like, 3rd Grade.

Every time I see a pic of those things I look around to make sure the coast is clear....

[Invincible Summer]

What a boner-killer.

[Angry Young Man]

I acknowledge that spiders keep flies down, but I'm an advocate of wiping out flies and wasps. With the spiders' diet gone, they'll have to eat more useful insects, meaning that we'll have to get rid of them too.

And the bubonic plague is borne from a louse on rats. Where the fuck were our blessed comrade spiders in 1349?

[Pirate Utopian]

So where were the spiders while the fly tried to break our balls
Just the beer light to guide us,
So we *****ed about his fans and should we crush his sweet hands?

[Pirate Utopian]

I have no troubles with spiders.
They just are.

[Jazzratt]

1) People who post pictures of spiders should be shot. Fuck me.
2) Someone on this very board told me that camel spiders aren't actually spiders, they are another flavour of arachnid. They still scare me to high fuckery.

[Pirate Utopian]

Spiders keep us safe.

This one can kill you.

A close up.

whoops, sorry. :D

[Angry Young Man]

I previously didn't have a problem with pictures being posted, but given the close-up, I'm with the jazzratt faction.

Amd jesus that/those two camel spiders aren't earthly!

lol if you want the close up to remain just a picture, stay out of the brazillian jungle!

:D

[Dr Mindbender]

This one will also kill you but not as quickly as the above one. It lives in Australia and has a tendency to enter people's houses. Fuck that.

Biggest species in the world. Imagine finding this fucker in your bath :D

Spiderlings are cute

[JazzRemington]

I like Brown Recluse spiders. There's just something about a tiny thing about the size of a quarter that can make a part of your arm look like a busted-open baseball that turns me on. :wub:

P.S., camel spiders aren't as big as they appear in the picture posted.

[Invincible Summer]

Fucking hell the Brazil Spider and the Funnel Web are scary as fuck!!

[Dr Mindbender]

Fucking hell the Brazil Spider

Wandering spider its called, btw.

[Robespierre2.0]

If you absolutely LOVE spiders, try eating a whole box of benadryl and forcing yourself to stay awake.

[NecroCommie]

What the heck is it that made spiders evolve lethality rates that can whipe out small ecosystems?!?!?! WHY?

[Angry Young Man]

I could ask the same about humans. And yet what do YOU do to get rid of wasps? Sanctimonious, hypocritical arsehole!

[hugsandmarxism]

I do, or at least I call an exterminator when I have a problem with them. And he at least has the decency not to fall on my shoulder when i go into my attic and scare the be-jesus out of me!

[Angry Young Man]

To be fair, you'd be more frightened if you saw an exterminator in your loft than a spider.

[Refounder]

Ah, what's wrong with spiders? They're so cute XD! Especially when you can see their eyes... no, I don't like spiders, but I'm not aracnophobic. I'm much more scared by bees and wasps >.<

[Angry Young Man]

The really sad thing is that their continued existence is necessary so as not to be swarmed with insects.

And that I can't address the phobia despite acknowledging the point in childhood at which I became frightened of them. I mean, ffs it's family folklore now!

[ChocolateToothpaste]

I used to hate them, but there seem to be a lot of cockroaches and spiders and generally gross things creeping around my bathroom lately, so now I'm just sort of used to it. I doubt I would keep one as a pet though.

[Rebel_Serigan]

I love spiders, they are the bug of socialism, think about it. They spread a web over an area and are self sufficent and they trap and get rid of pests. Not to mension that they only take what they need and only bite when they have to. I have two spiders as pets, one I caught and the other I bought. I caught a black widow and she is beautiful. I feed her once a day and it is magical to watch her catch and eat. The other is huge tarantula named Sam Fisher, you know after the guy from Splinter Cell. Spiders rule!!!!!!!!!!

[commyrebel]

All living things should be respected so spiders should too. But i still don't like them but they don't bother me.

and snails - when i was a kid in the country side slugs used to fall on us when we were asleep- they got in ... I hate them

[Dr Mindbender]

I like spiders, they eat flies which makes them alright by me.

At least spiders are stationary most of the time so you know where they are.

Keeping a black widow as a pet is crazy though, those things are poisonous to humans.
