Anyone here with a fear of spiders? D: I absolutely hate spiders. I've got something in between a fear and a phobia. For example, if I see one in my house, I do my best to kill it. I don't want to find it in my bed or on the couch two hours later. However, I don't scream bloody murder and go into cardiac arrest if I find one in my room or on me. If one drops on me, though, I might go into a frenzy trying to get it off me and look like one of those windsocks hanging out in front of people's houses. xD My family has a pretty big house, and part of it belongs to my Grandmother who doesn't even live with us anymore, and her sewing room is filled with spiders and webs and shit. X_X The other day I tried to get my Queen shirt out of there (It had a hole in it, though I don't know why it was in a sewing room that had been abandoned for two years XD) and it was quite scary. ;P Here, we shall talk about fears of spiders, stories about spider encounters and arachnophobia. DISCUSS. ;P |

I absolutely LOATHE spiders. I think they're like the lowest shits on earth...disgusting! Ugh! I have a horrible fear, and like as soon as I see one...I WILL go into cardiac arrest, and scream...and then I'll run away to my room. And even after that, I'll have spasms and seizures as if a spider is still on me or something. It's really gross...There's a huge yellow one outside my house right now...and I want to kill it. Really badly. X_X I HATE THEMMMMM ;_;! Someone please squash it for me.. |

What a convenient time to make this thread..! I was gonna check the mail, and a huge spider ran into my house! Careful word- choice there; it ran really fast, too. xD While I don't enjoy having spiders crawl on me, I'm not scared of them. In fact, I'm usually the one who takes the a piece of paper and throws the spider outside. :P |

The Rocky Balboas of spiderworld. xD One of my cats loves to eat spiders! Not like, giant wolf spiders, but like the tiny little black house spiders that you find on your wall sometimes. All we have to do is put her in front of it and she bats it around with this huge white paw and scares it to death. Then she eats it. XD |

I don't like spiders in my house but I'm grateful for them outside. They serve a wonderful purpose in nature. Somewhere on here in the past I posted pictures of a lovely spider who made her nest on my house. The babies never made it though. My yard was infested with grasshoppers that were ruining my plants and grass. Once she came along, there was a nice balance and her services were free! Can't beat that! |

I don't like spiders. I'm not terrified of them anymore, I've trained myself not to be, because it was getting stupid. I can deal with small ones, I just put a glass over them and put them outside, however, I do really hate the big house spiders. They make me feel a bit sick, and I find it very different to go anywhere near them. One fell on me when I was in my attic the other day and I did scream. I'm pleased to say, I don't think I've ever (intentionally) killed a spider though. I don't agree with killing insects for some reason. Except wasps perhaps. |
deleted user 10.08.2007 15:18 |
To quote the legendary Charlotte of 'Charlotte's Web' when replying to Wilbur's revulsion of her eating insects, if she didn't: 'Bugs would increase and multiply and become so numerous...' I can't remember the rest, but the world couldn't cope. Spiders are nice insects. Apart from REALLY big ones or poisionous ones. |

I'm such a pussy when it comes to spiders that I open biology and nature books carefully because I get shit scared when a picture of a tarantula pops out. My wife dared me to watch this entire Animal Planet documentary on Tarantulas. I have to say that even though they scare the shit out of me, I have a morbid fascination with them. They showed this huge bird eating spiders from the jungle in Venezuela and the local indian tribes eat them, and use the fangs as toothpicks. |
