"Muuh, spiders!!!!"

I hate spiders, but the worst thing is going into the bathroom late at night, turning on the light and finding there are loads all around you. Sometimes I wake up and they're squashed in my sheets too. It's like the spiders in my house are all charles Bronson in Deathwish, or something.

Spiders don't eat Birds you dumb, they eat worms, rocks and small Crocodiles.

Thicko.

I saw some huge spiders in America. Totally common over there, though.

Spiders come out at unsocial hours, when I'm downstairs in the early hours of the morning, I often see them scuttling around the fireplace or up on the walls. I use my cat to eat them, monkey_man, I suggest you do the same thing.

Also, up until last year, my bedroom was up in the attic. Think about how many spiders are in YOUR attic. I had to deal with that every night, heh.

Forget all your feeble "notions" of spiders. I saw the real thing in Australia. A massive bird eating spider...I walked through some bushes and stopped. There was a MASSIVE web in front of me. Gasping in dismay, I turned to my mate and said, "Where is the spider that made that monstrous obscenity?"

He looked around in a nonchalant Aussie manner and pointed out a hulking brute of a spider...it was climbing up a tree at a slow pace and it was about the size of a mousemat. I'm not joking. It was enormous.

May i remind you all of the film based ona true story that is "Aracnaphobia" *Waits for response*...A can assure you its not B*ll*cks!

I always put spiders outside if I find them, so I’m the one that’s called when a spider is found. Go on, pick um up, they won’t hurt you.

Unless you find one that’s eating your pet cat or rabbit or something, then I suggest you hit it with something very heavy.

Ive seen two spiders of the same genus in my bathroom within the last 2 days, they're breeding i tells ya.

mmmmmmmmmmm cholesterol.

Maybe it is the fly who is poisonous and the Spider simply eats flies to gain their power. Like kids who eat McDougal's burgers to gain both weight and cholesterol.

It's possible.
They *are* spiders after all.

Maybe some of them are cunning like a fox who has eight legs and a completely different DNA structure to other foxes, and use a deadly poison or something. I know that this might be controversial but it might just work.
