Did you know the average person swallows 7 spiders a year while sleeping.

Have a nap and you may eat it.

Ehhhhhhhhh I asked my 23 year old brother (sleeps in same room) to sort it out for me. He was half asleep, but he got up, however by the time he got a tissue etc. to obliterate it, the little bugger had already run off to god knows where.



Well I guess I'm off to purchase a polished glass bed. Took me ages to go to back to sleep... with the thought that it could be in my proximity... waiting to make me look like more of a pussy... **** you .



How the hell do you remain rational? I just go mental, and by mental I mean scream and jump around, which doesn't solve a thing at all.

ahahaha, you are cute.
You react the same way as me. It'll be back, but probably for a while. I suppose you could just have a search in all the corners of you room and keep your brother close at hand?

a massive spider started crawling through my legs while i was mid-wee on the toilet the other day

But spiders are beautiful creatures! Don't kill the poor guy he's gonna be more scared of you than you are of him

Peace and love to all fellow arachnids and other invertebrates

Does it sound like I'm gonna find it and award it a spa break? If anything, it'll get a spa break once I flush it down the toilet having repeatedly bashed it's ****ing head in.

I'm not believing anything until Mythbusters checks it out. Plus, think of the circumstances that would have to be true, e.g. sleeping with your mouth open.

Tempted to have a look around to flush it out, if it's still in the room. Yeah my brother has a job so it's definitely a one man job. Perhaps this is what transforms me from a boy into a man.

Liam Neeson would come in handy here.

Ha! Yes, maybe this is your time to transform into a man
Go get the spider.

aaaaaaah! what an nightmare!
If i ever go toilet in one of those really grubby public ones, I always have a fear of a crocodile just popping out

If it is a big one, just leave him to it. You never know what might happen.

You are having way too much fun on this thread..

Reading through all the posts, I now have that creepy crawly tingly sensation all over

When I was younger I woke up with one of these monsters on my chest!

I was absolutely petrified as I didn't know what the chuff it was, and it did the scary scorpion thing with its tail. I squashed it with a copy of 2000AD.

There was a mahoosive spider in our bathroom last week, seriously it was like a mini tarantula.Dont know where he/she crawled off to, but havent seen it since.

Spiders never have bothered me, if I see one I just scoop it up in to a cup and carefully put it outside.

I bet it was this bugger:

Picture of spider in spoiler, arachnaphobes don't click. Although it's a very tame picture.

if it was smaller than that, it will have been a teganaria domestica, as opposed to the teganaria duellica in the spoiler. These guys look big and creepy, but they're actually completely harmless. They compete with a couple of species of spider that will bite you, so it's to your benefit if you let these ones in your house.

Oh, woops. Sorry guys. I can't get rid of that thumbnail. Even changed the IMG code to a URL and it is still sticking around.

I don't know, maybe because they're agile, grim looking creatures that are just so disgusting. I honestly can't think of a reason why. I just think they're the scum of the earth.

Urgh thankfully the one I encountered was not a giant. On the other hand, **** you .

Don't even have the balls to click on it, but thanks for your contribution!

im a girl



just had to sit it out

[When you see it...]

What is going on? 15 likes for a pathetic rant about being scared of a spider? Is there some sort of hidden humour that I'm missing?
Don't kill it, that's just tight.

this thread's making me get all nervous and tingley now.
