oh, SO not cool to stick that spider in my face. i got chills on my backbone.

ewwwww

Actual size? Really?
I'd freak.
And if anyone came at me with it I'd cry, literally run away and cry and not go near that person.
I've done it before.

And Im not even afraid of spiders.

We had an ant infestation this week and this morning in a half asleep stupor I freaked cos I thought my face was covered in ants. (It was my hair touching my face.)

I am going to try and forget that you posted that picture of that GIGANTIC, NASTY SHIT. OH MY GOD.

Why does a cat chatter when he sees a bird?
When a cat kills prey, it bites down quickly several times. The "chatter" is simulating the cat's behavior at the time of attack. Alternatively (according to a visitor): it's pure and simple frustration. When a cat is stalking or killing a bird, they're almost invariably completely silent. It's when they are shut off from the prey that they chatter.

AAAAAHHHHH!!!!!! Thanks for the freak out, Clarity. What a way to start your day.

Holy shit! Clarity, Don't post stuff like that!!! I have the heebie jeebies now!! *SHIVERS*

I have to laugh.. I encourage Riley to pick spiders up and to NOT harm them (of course, we live in an area where there aren't any poisonous ones, it would be different otherwise). We always "set them free" so they can find their families or whatever. Kent, on the other hand, smooshes them on first sight and FREAKS out if one gets anywhere near him.

A daddy-long-legs (like the one in the photo you posted) is completely harmless and even though it's in the same class as spiders, it's not actually a spider. There's a site here that explains the difference.

Don't let them scare you - you could crush them in battle. :)

FUCK that's hideous.

Anywho.

Find something he's afraid of now and make sure to dange it in his face.

Like... hire a birthday clown if he's afraid of those. Even if it isn't his birthday. Have it waiting for him in your bed.

Tell him I said he's mean.

i scream when i see roaches.. worst, house lizards.

EeeeYUCKKKKKK.

My husband is terrified of spiders, but they don't bother me at all. Actually, every guy I've ever dated hated spiders and my dad and brother hate them too. I always thought it was men who hated them and the women who had to protect the men from them. But, that's still not how I would want to wake up!

I almost always jump when I see some kind of insect or spider because they always seem to pop out of no where. And you just shouldn't be sneaking up on people when you're that ugly. I'm just saying. Anyway, I'm deathly afraid of potato bugs. Oh sweet cracker sandwich, those things are the spawn of Satan. I'm not sure if you get those where you are, but count yourself lucky if you don't. Ugh.

Nono, Clarity, spiders are good voodoo. Spiders eat flies and mosquitos and all kinds of things that would muck around in nastiness and then poo on your food. Spiders = friends. :)

I was going to tell you how spiders are good, especially daddy long legs which eat mosquitos but somebody else beat me to it. On the other hand, if someone picked one up and tried to get it close to me I'd tell them in no uncertain terms how wrong that was of them.

Ugh, that wasn't a fun thing to see when scrolling down, I once was given a model spider to build to reduce my phobia, stupid psychologist friend of the family, I wouldn't even touch the box because it had a picture of the fully built spider on it! Oh and how funny, my german boyfriend calls those big long legged spiders 'daddy long legs' as well but here we have always called crane flies, daddy long legs, you know those freaky flying things that try and fly towards your face, we have some quite stupid arguments over what to call the damn things when I am screaming for either him or the cat to come deal with them!
