happy spiders

I am positive it was unintentional, but the name of that web page is "Meet-Hawaiian-spider-make-smile.html" which gave me a bit of a chuckle. In Hawai'ian, make (pronounced "mah-kay") means to to kill, die, or destroy, so the name of the page looks like "Meet Hawaiian spider and lose your smile."

(Well, I thought it was funny...)

They are cool spiders. :)
 
I love spiders, and am trying to convince my daughter that they are neat. It's hard to do; I think people are naturally put off by their movement.
 
I don't see a happy spider, I see a killing machine with a red mark on it's body.
 
My wife goes absolutely bonkers when she sees one. We've repeated the "spider as large as a buick" scene many times.
 
I do not consider killing a spider with a shotgun to be an overreaction.

*shudders*
 
On the one hand, I think spiders are awsome.

On the other hand, I think they're incredibly creepy.

So I have a rule: If the spider is obviously on its way from Point A to Point B, and both points are out of sight, then fine. But if it's acting like it's going to be hanging around for a while? Death.
 
Spiders are great because they reduce the bug traffic in your house. Spiders=awesome, bugs=stupid

I was once bitten by a radioactive spider... but that's another several thousand comic books and some movies.
 
My wife hates spiders, but I love em for the pest control. I had a couple funnel spiders set up nests on the porch, right on the bug lamp, so I didn't bother to turn it on again.

Now we're having a bit of an ant problem, but I look in the corner of the windows and I see webs full of dead ant bodies. Go team arachnid!
 
My wife also has problems with Spiders. She spent the whole Shelob sequence of ROTK with her hands over her face.
 
Keep a few spiders in strategic spots, and make sure they're fat and happy. They eat centipedes, catch mosquitos, and webs are awesome.
 
Have you read the "How clean is your desk" forum site? Did you know how many people have spiders in their desks!

Oh my God, I don't even want to look for my stapler :jaw-dropp
 
I killed 100 brown recluses in my basement yesterday. They are the only ones I kill. I can tell when they are on the rise, because they kill every other spider we have.

Damn. Hard to call them "recluse" when they are in your basement by the hundred. Brown Rave Spiders, maybe.
