Reading the thread title, I thought this was about a demon seed child of mad Jew and AppleSpider. :D
 
Instead you'll have 24 little pall-bearing spider feet carrying it's corpse across your face tonight.
:)

But when did you ever see a fat spider? Think of the protein :p
Yum!

I find a lot of these in my backyard.
They're pretty cool looking IMO.
Must be fun to watch them.
 
That's one gorgeous spider - I like the little beggars... most of them are far more frightened of you

I'd be frightened too, if some giant were swinging a shoe at me.

If you do it right the next-of-kin can't identify the body. Or indeed identify it as a body.
 
I've seen a few interesting spiders in my time - Camel Spiders - but never anything like that. Good thing it isn't poisonous.
 
Wow. That critter is awesome! :eek:

My rule for killing spiders is simple: if it can't kill me, I don't kill it. :eek:
 
I'm sorry spiders frighten the hell out of me, just like snakes, bats, bees, frogs, mice, and so on do for some of you. I kill them because I am freaked out by them completely I can't even sleep of there is one in my room that I accidently "knocked down" they are assassins sent in, which is why I will sleep in a chair with a hammer and one eye open.

haha!!Nice description!!:p
 
I'm thinking shot-put. The Olympians have inspired me to become more creative in my modes of killing.

The javelin and lawn darts are much more satisfying methods...

Spiders in the house have to be dealt with an an appropriate manner, shoe, phone book, or if neither is handy a wad of paper towels or kleenex.

The geckos (who have recently invaded the house) get caught and released to the wild.

Thank you. :D

Geckos are sweet, harmless little creatures, to us anyway.

Let them live.

I am reminded of a scene when someone on a sit-com encounters a spider in a washroom. First person says 'Oh, pshaw', and goes in with a broom.

He comes running out, now looking for a baseball bat. :eek:

Does anyone remember this??

They mostly live because the mess from killing them would be worse than that of a spider, and the cleanup of said mess is more of an issue for me than capture and release.

Of course many get released to the backyard where our large dog likes to play, so they may just be getting more of a sporting chance...
 
They're usually harmless but damn every time I see them they freak me out. Now The spiders that spin yellow webs which grow HUGE is the ones I don't bother with.....There freaking nuts.



Bless
