Ash Wednesday Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 I've advanced to the point where I can smash them on my own.... most of the time unless they are really big -- I could smash a big one so long as it doesn't *move* then *shudder* Sooooo grooooosss!!!!!!

Archaeology cat Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 I don't especially enjoy spiders, but I should be quite used to them by now. I'm an archaeologist in Florida, and you never see the hand-sized banana spiders until you run into them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC Just Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 I have a big fear of Spiders too dude. I do not like them at all. In fact you'd probably see me running around like Jim Carey on "Me Myself and Irene" if I found one on me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
picchick Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't mean to laugh at your horrific experience but it's pretty funny. I really don't have a problem with bugs but the thing that bugs me the most are centipedes. Just the word send chills up my spine. They are soooo creepy. They are so freaky with their long spindly legs and they can go super fast and they just are creepy!!! Eww. I call my dad to kill them. Or my brother. But he's not here so my dad will do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete-ster Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 I was bit once by a fiddleback. The infection nearly killed me, and I have a scar the size of a dime and a 1/4 inch deep... I feel your pain... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete-ster Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 (edited) Yep! Happened to me the summer I turned 8. Went camping and one wound up in our tent. Bit me on the leg. Edited August 31, 2004 by Pete-ster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sojourner Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 Yeah, I'm not a big fan of spiders or really of bugs or rodents in general. It's amazing how fast I can jump to the top of the table when I see one on the floor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Knight Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 I like spiders, I just dont like snakes.... lol, But yes the experience you had Paladin is rather humorous in some parts, but the important thing is no one died. could you be any more detailed on what type of spider it was? was it poisonous? or not?

cooltuba Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 I read this post earlier today and had a good laugh at Paladin's experience. It's never a good idea to laugh at another's mis-fortune. A couple of minutes ago, I was walking from my car to the front door of my house, and I walked into a spiderweb. It wasn't a huge one, and I couldn't see anything in the dark, so I just kept walking. I get into my bedroom and start picking the strands of web out of my hair, and I held one up and lo and behold, there was a huge arse spider on the end of it! I didn't panic, but calmly walked to the bathroom, grabbed a can of "spiking glue" hairspray (the stuff dries hard as a rock in 10 seconds), and sprayed the carp out of him. It didn't kill him, but it slowed him down a bunch. I then calmly placed him in a trashcan with a lid. I'm sure he won't live, but I didn't want to chance him crawling out of the can before the spray fully hardened. Lesson learned, my friends. --Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
