Spiders

[Ida13]

Earlier today I looked over and about three inches from my face was a big creepy hairy spider
I hate spiders.
What are your opinions and stories on them?

 

[Sawsbuck]

I destroy them

 

[Radiating]

No spider escapes death once it's sighted.

 

[Ida13]

I destroy them

I don't usually because they might land on me.

 

[Sawsbuck]

I don't usually because they might land on me.

If I flatten a spider on the wall or the floor that won't happen

 

[Corrin]

I just ignore them, I likely have at least 100 in my room...somewhere

 

[Sirfetch’d]

I don't mess with spiders. I am absolutely terrified of them and I cannot even be in the same room with them without panicking.

 

[an illegible mess.]

i have a severe fear of spiders to the point where its a major problem. if there is a spider web on my car door or side mirror i either climb to the drivers seat via other places in the car or i just say fuck it and walk away. today i was trying to take the garbage bin to the curb and it had spiders all over it. i sat there staring at the spiders for maybe twenty minutes trying to get the guts to brush maybe one off.

don't get me wrong, i don't hate spiders. i can't hate them when they eat annoying bugs like flies and mosquitos. i just don't want them near me, blocking my everyday routine. i feel bad about killing spiders too so i get someone else to do it for me or i just leave them be.

I'll will leave them alone unless trapped in the bath then I'll put an towel hang down from the d=side so it can climb out.

I don't mind spiders as long as they aren't crawling on me so I don't go out of my way to kill them. Though just a few days ago I had a large spider on my hat and just put him on the ground to run away. I don't get the creeps from spiders, instead I over-react when I see a cockroach or wasp.

 

[She]

I'm only scared of large spider. I'll roll the newspaper and *splat*. Die.

 

[Alakazam17]

I love spiders. Just like having a cat is a good way to keep mice away, keeping spiders around ensures that the annoying insect(ie. flies, mosquitoes, and even wasps if the web is strong enough) populations are reduced,

 

[string555]

Spiders are adorable. :3

That being said, I wouldn't want to live somewhere were they have a lot of the big-sized ones. :O

As long as they're small and don't look poisonous, I have no problem with them crawling on me.

 

[Alakazam17]

don't look poisonous

That's an important caveat I forgot to mention.

Zero percent of the spiders in my part of the world are poisonous, so I'm a little more at ease sharing my space with them. Otherwise I'd be more than a little concerned if I saw a species I didn't recognize.

 

[Limey-chan]

I really don't mind spiders at all, infact if anything I feel a bit sorry for them, they get such a bad rep.

Same with moths, no idea why people are so afraid of them.

 

[Sawsbuck]

They are more annoying than scary

 

[string555]

Now, if some mad scientist combined moths with tarantulas, a big, winged, hairy spider, that would be scary. :O

 

[Sylphiel]

Little ones I tend to leave alone.

Bigger ones I might leave alone, especially if they keep their distance.

Big ones? ....No guarantee of anything.

I can't say anything about my cat leaving them alone, though. :P

Though thankfully most of the bigger ones here tend to stay outside (my windows are at ground level here, so it's easy enough for spiders and other things to crawl in), and all I've seen recently are little tiny ones that I don't even bother with.

Oh, and if they decide to hang from the ceiling and say hi (that has happened to me once), they're probably getting squashed if I can find them again. Assuming I haven't already run away from the spot and refused to go back there at all. There was much flailing that night on my end.

yep that would be time to leave this world

 

[tokyodrift]

Evacuate my house, and proceed to burn it to the ground.

On a more serious note, I remember when there was this huge jumping spider in the middle of my kitchen, and I had just gotten up for school and headed to the dryer for some clothes. I kept throwing shit at it, and of course, I kept missing. Lets say... I didn't go to school that day :P
