If however you had a Lion king avy, you would get infinite praise from me :yep:

You need to be a sub to have an animated/moving avy :yep:


LoL.

What's a sub (is it different from a mod?). I have a lot to learn :rolleyes:

this extract sums up how irrational fears of big spiders is: "For some reason tarantula’s reputation isn’t that good. Maybe because they are big. Maybe because they are hairy. Maybe because they are poisonous. Well, yes, they are big, and hairy. They do have poison, but it can’t kill a person unless you’re allergic to it. For most people, tarantula bites are no worse than a bee sting."

If I was to get a pet I think it would either be a spider or a bird

It's people who are too important to be riff raff, but too cool to be mods :cool:


Like me :u:.


No that's a lie. It's people who actually spend MONEY on TSR. Fortunately I haven't paid for Sub yet, but still... I probably will one day.

Right, because that explains people's fear of all the poisonous spiders in Australia that kill people. Why don't you just accept that people are scared of different things. I don't make fun and question people who are scared of flying, even though there is more of a chance of a crash in a car, but I just accept that they're scared of flying. :colonhash:

Well seeing as it's one of the most common phobias, I don't think it should seem weird.

I never said stop talking about it, I just was voicing my opinion
I'm not scared of anything :smug:
^I bet I could find something you were afraid of :sexface: :innocent:

ok so what about it is it that you're afraid of, the chance of it biting you or just the way it looks?

Everything, but I haven't been to Australia or any place that has poisonous spiders yet so i'm not afraid of them biting me.

But lets just put it this way, if I see a big spider and i'm on my own, I nearly start to cry and have to move rooms. I've had to sleep in other rooms before because there is a spider in my own room
