Have you seen our spiders?

Wasn't it the funnel web spider that Peter Jackson used as one of the main inspirations for Shelob?

Wow, this turned into the anti-Jilli thread fast.

OTOH, I have pretty much zero fear of snakes, who are actually more dangerous.

Heh. I don't really have a snake fear either, but I give them a healthy respect (and as much distance or interposing glass as I can muster).

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

See, I like spiders when they DON'T COME FROM THE FREAKY CONTINENT OF FREAKY FREAKASSED FREAK SPIDERS. But that funnel-web thingie? It's allowed to be 5 cm long or deadly poisonous. But its insistence being both at once is just showing off.

re: billy's spider link (which I did not click on)

Hubby wanted me to say that when he lived in Hawaii in the 70s, his mother once thought a spider on the wall was a clock. Hubby was also once caught in a spider web that was strung between two banana trees. He was 11 at the time, but still.

edit: I also just handed him the rest of my dinner, because his glee in telling the tale made me lose my appetite.

For this, Jilli really is the voice of reason, more so than normal. And thusly, I stand with her (even though she is cringing with my English/grammar/spelling skills)

He was able to get himself free, but the degree of effort involved freaked him out.
