That I could deal with... now if it had been a spider... i dont think i woul have slepted that night, unless someone had managed to kill it (I say *someone* bc there would be no way id get close enough to it to kill it myself, even w/ a Klinex or something)

MASSIVE arachnophobia over here -- im so creeped out / bothered / afraid of spiders is absurb...

I crush spiders in kleenex all the time (makes a nice popping sound! LOL!) but thank GOD I've never seen those hairy tarantula-looking muthafuckas in real life...the big ones would DEF scare the bajeezus outta me!!! (especially the ones the size of that queen muthafucka in The Return of the King)

The worst is the great ontario dockspiders...now those mofos can get HUGE...we're talking like 7 inch radius with legs...and no cute daddy-long-legs style legs either

i kill those all the time.
they run fast, but when you smash them with your shoe, their body disintegrates. all the legs that are left on the floor or stuck to your shoe keep twitching for some time.

ICK! Those are gross! We had some of those when I lived in North York. The funniest was one day, I was on the pc and I saw one fly by on the ground, and I thought everybody was home sleeping, so I didnt want to freak out loud and wake everybody up. For 20 min I was sitting there with my feet pulled under me on the chair, whispering to the cats to chase it, tryin to be as quiet as possible, freaked out of my mind.

Then everybody came home. I was sitting there as quiet as possible for nothing!

Never did find the f*cker tho :S

This one place I worked at like 2 years ago, this box came from "aussieland" haha. Anyway, opened it up and on the top side of the box is a huge spider thats orange and black. Two of them actually, one dead one alive, both the size of like toonies! So not cool. Killed the alive ones a book. Totally freaked out for abit lol. Open a box up "WOAH! wtf!?>>" lol!! Whos knows if that stuffs deadly or what lol. One time a lizard was in one of the boxes to lol!

thanks margs I love you too(with daggers in my eyes)
what Im trying to say, is that if I knew what it was, I wouldnt be so freaked out by it. Ive never seen a bug like this before, so it kind of got to me. You know, like a fear of the unknown. Now that theres some headway into it my lever of freaked outedness is severly diminished.

and dock spiders are horrible. My dad was bitten by one at our cottage up by thunder bay on the border of Quetico and turned red withing 5 minutes, and then was followed up by severe nausea, stomach cramps and diarrhea. Now were sure to check the boats before we go for a long trip in them.

dock spider

giant ick.
