Ba babababa! I'm lovin it.

Phill Jupitus does a great sketch on what it's like to be an arachnophobic. It's on the "Quadrophobia" show, well worth watching.

and apologies to all you spider fans, but if i found one of them hanging out in my blender, i'd:

1) be terrified beyond the capacity for rational thought
2) think he was kinda daring me to do it anyways.

it'd have to actually already BE in the blender thugh, i'm not bloody touching it.

What is all this irrational arachnophobia?
Spiders are wondrous things. Weaving their work-of-art webs; bungie-jumping (some of them) to connect their silky strands from one prong to another. Marvellous things.

Theres no need to fear them, they wouldn't harm a fly... !!

oh man
oh man oh man
no

It kinda p!sses me off now - how society has somehow made it normal for everyone to be irrationally scared of spiders. It's taken for granted that most people will be.

And despite realising this, I still get a little scared when I see a big spider (in real life at least) - which annoys me even more.

a phobia is precisely that, it's an irrational fear.
complaining about people who suffer from one won't change that, and it won't make life any easier for them either.

OMFG!!!!!!!

I held a spider like that once at those greenhouse/zoo things. I'm still shiit-scared of them... with their hairy little faces.

I love ants though, they had these massive ones at the same place on ropes above your head carrying leaves. I play with them on holiday too... like a big ant god.

YEAH

thats SO harsh

i had one of those in my hand in florida once at a disney show thing - it was like

'GOOD DAY Y'ALL... who wants to hold a GIANNNNT SPIDER today!'

as he scans audience with his eyes the little ginger neon haired girl whos like two foot tall must of stood out.. and the fact my brother was mad at me and was saying 'HER HERRRR!'

They are all tickly, not mean.

Mum wouldnt hold my hand all day after :(

I held a big, long snake too.

Though, I have had plenty of experience in that department.

What happens when you don't blend spiders

It looks like his hand is giving birth to another one.
