I just typed out a whole long witty post with pics and shit but then I lost it, so to make a long story short I have a wolf spider living on my patio and shit scares me. NAGL! Shit has a face and eyes!

The irony is that I am not (usually) afraid of spiders, I have several little ones in the house- I am cool with them. My mom always said spiders are good luck, so I never freaked out about them ( unlike my abnormal fear of cockroaches which I've had my whole life, much to my students' delight in my cockroach-infested classroom)
BUT
this dude is big. I thought it was a lizard when I first disturbed him and he started scurrying around and then I was like "Lizards don't have that many legs!" WHATTHEFUCK.

Djanna,

I'm afraid to "anger" him. He knows where I live.

Spider-related story:

Me and some friends went to someone's vacation home in Las Vegas. When we got into the garage, which was vacant for quite some time, there were a grip of Black Widows, and so this one dude decided to grab a cutting board from the kitchen and proceeded to smash them with it. I was actually filming this too.

offtopic cockroach story:

one day at my old crib i threw on a pair of pants. these were no ordinary pairs of pants for a roach about 2.5 inches long had made my pants his/her home the night before. i threw the joints on and immediately felt something poke me. i reached inside to see if it was a piece of paper jabbing me...but instead found that demonic little roach. to my dismay, i freaked out and immediately crashed into the door face first. BLAP! bloody nose. for some reason the pain diverted my attention, and i had the thing still in my hand. so when i went to go wipe some blood off my face...the roach and i were re-acquainted. this time with the roach crawling all over my bloody face. i hate roaches. the end.

Shit was about 2 inches long! Ive never seen such an agressive insect in my whole life. When i did the old cup-and-paper trick on him (her?), he scurried around the base of the cup, Pumping his front legs (which were fuckin massive) up and down. It kinda looked like he was "rasing the roof", only not corny and really terrifying. Agh.

WTF??????

seriously, i can understand a GIRL being afraid of spiders but come on now.....

spiders are good for you, they kill other insects that are a lot more harmful to you, like flies that leave all kinds of bacteria on your food. you need spiders in your life (maybe with the exception of the poisonous ones)!

That's looks/sounds like a Camel Spider. I've seen a couple of them in the Middle East and avoided them lil' dudes like the plague.

One arachnid that I don't mess around with is the Brown Recluse.

Cosign on the Recluse, I'm always extra careful rummaging through firewood piles. Those things'll fuck you up real bad.

I once bought two boxes of records from a garage sale, and brought them home and right up to my room. I was flipping through one box when all of a sudden from the back a nasty medium sized black and hairy spider came sprinting out the box and dove straight for a pile of clothes. I tried to find him but couldn't, then figured he'd turn up and I'd have to dismiss him.

I forgot about it of course. Woke up the next morning with 9 nasty bites running up one leg and 5 on the other. I've never had an insect bite itch so bad, and the itching lasted at least a week. The bitemarks were there for a month, at least.

Later that day I was playing records, had a record on the left turntable with the right one spinning wit just the slipmat when my little friend comes running out onto the slipmat while it's spinning! It was like watching a confused animal trying to run on a treadmill. I laughed for a second then remembered that he attacked me first so I had to squish him.


I like spiders though, especially when they really start coming out in September. Last year I counted 9 webs all on the side of my porch that I like to sit on, but in the bushes so I could just sit there and watch them. It looked nice when the sun caught the webs at a certain time of day. If I find one in the house I try and get it outside instead of killing it too.
