I’m terrified of little spiders, so this seems right out of a horror movie to me. Yikes!

"Laura told Daily Mail Australia: “It’s massive and was mean, but it’s alive and we didn’t want to kill it.”

WTF is wrong with those people???

[[Can you imagine waking up and finding that thing in bed with you?]]

We had ‘brown gray fishing spiders’ in our home- and while smaller- they are still quite large- I was asleep one evening and actually was awakened when one ran across a poster on my wall- I could hear the stinkin thing like it was a mouse pitter patterign across the paper- I thought about the fact that I’d probably had the dang thing run across my face during the night at soem point- Very creepy-

Because if you kill the spider, it means the spider has won.

Hmm...I guess it depends on your point of view.

MANIAC AUSSIES AMPUTATE TWO LEGS OF AN INNOCENT SPIDER

Queensland Couple Arrested for Unprovoked Attack

"I was just out checking a shrimp I had on the barbie," said Mr. Aragog, "when these two monstrous, ugly creatures slammed a door on me for no reason at all. I am so suing their sorry mammalian arses into next week, mate, I want to tell you."

Doctors were unable to reattach the legs and Aragog will be needing two sets of little spider crutches. Donors are encouraged to visit his GoFundMe page.

The Huntsman spider kills thinks that want to kill people: other spiders and even snakes. They are freakishly big but are about as friendly towards humans, the odd pet tarantula aside, as spiders get.

Heck, my Son-in-Law and his buddies would find these critters in their tents in Iraq.

Boris the Spider (J. Entwistle, from 'A Quick One')

Look, he's crawling up my wall
Black and hairy, very small
Now he's up above my head
Hanging by a little thread

Boris the spider
Boris the spider

Now he's dropped on to the floor
Heading for the bedroom door
Maybe he's as scared as me
Where's he gone now, I can't see

Boris the spider
Boris the spider

Creepy, crawly
Creepy, crawly
Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly
Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly
Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly
Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly

There he is wrapped in a ball
Doesn't seem to move at all
Perhaps he's dead, I'll just make sure
Pick this book up off the floor

Boris the spider
Boris the spider

Creepy, crawly
Creepy

Couple of my college roommates (brothers) were there after graduating and one told me he woke up in the morning where they were staying (family friends) to find one of those on a wall overhang right above his face. He was freaked out, but the lady of the house was just “oh, those, I suck 2 or 3 of them up in the vacuum every week...”
