    in the apartment we rented for the last year of uni, we had a spider roommate that was almost as big as my hand! i'm absolutely terrified of large spiders but thankfully said spider never actually bothered us until we were packing up to leave. i'm guessing it didn't want us to leave :(

  • OMG OMG OMG KILL IT WITH FIRE!

    Joking aside, as long as the little critters stay OUT of my personal space and bubble, I ignore them. If they crawl at me or try to hunt my space, I'M GONNA HUNT THE LITTLE BUGGER DOWN AND SMACK AND SQUISH IT! Seriously spiderbro, your life is forfeit if I see you too close to me. I don't have time to find out if you're cute and harmless or mean and venomous.

  • Seeing a spider in my room is almost guaranteed to give me a sudden adrenaline rush because I think I still have a slight fear of them. It's especially bad when the spider is running on the wall close to my bed - I don't want any unwanted guests in my sleeping environment (or anywhere else either really)!

    Also last night I had a dream where I peeked into a sewer and instead of a clown there was this huge hairy spider just staring back at me with all its eight eyes.

    As a kid I absolutely hated spiders. Nowadays I can easily pick them up and throw them out (The small ones that is)

    For some reason seeing the word jumping spider always reminds me of this:

    Jumping spiders do look quite cute up close with their big eyes. :)

    I don't mind spiders all that much really. I can't say I'm overly keen on having larger ones in my personal space, but I'm not scared of them or anything.

    Now, craneflies...THOSE need to be killed on sight. They exist solely to fly into your face. Little bastards.

    I don't like being anywhere near them whatsoever, but when they are on me it's time for them to die.
    Especially that one time I found in my hair... death immediately.

  • I can't stand spiders. If there's a spider around, or even if the spider has been killed... I swear, I won't go into the room it was killed in for a while. I don't know why. They just creep me out so badly that I feel like I want to scream bloody murder. :| I do like Jumping Spiders. They are so cute... I mean how can you not find this adorable:

    The only cute ones are jumping spiders and tarantulas.
    The rest are pure evil.

    I like spiders. I have some bathroom spiders in my basement that I leave alone because their webs show that they're getting other bugs down there. At work I've escorted many spiders out the building lol

  • I personally really like spiders. I used to be afraid of them, but after watching videos about some of them, they kinda grown on me a bit. Personal favorite kind would be the Jumping spiders, namely the Green, Metallic Green, and Daring species of them. I would even like to hold one and have one as a pet. Only ones I'm not a fan of are the very venomous like the Brazilian Wandering Spider or the very aggressive ones like the Sydney Funnel Web Spider.

    I don't consider myself a squeamish person at all, but I guess I have a bit of a phobia of spiders and insects since I really can't deal with them myself and I always have to get someone else to kill/remove them for me.

    In the past, my dad has tried to "train" me to not be afraid of them by leaving their carcasses near me or just shoving them in my face, which is kind of funny now that I think about it, but even the sight of the dead bodies kind of freak me out so I guess that didn't work, lol

  • Hate them. Always have, always will.

    I remember an ex-boyfriend decided to take advantage of that fact by killing one and then chasing me around with it until I was curled up fetal position in the corner of a bathroom ;-;

  • I'm cool with tarantulas as pets, and sometimes I see a tiny ant-sized bb spider that I think is adorable, but I will definitely kill any other spider I see in my house. They don't particularly scare me, but the idea of a spider roaming free in my house makes me uncomfortable, and I usually don't want to spend the time trapping it/putting it outside.

    I always apologize to the spider before killing it, though.
