No, you don´t have too. Triplets and them will have a little hugfest.

I have once set fire to my home. Imagine my surprise, then, when this entire thread was about motherfucking spiders. And yes, I have unwittingly read every post, looked at every link, and felt generally smug about living in the UK, where dangerous spiders don't exist.

AND THEN I READ THE VERY, VERY LAST LINK, YOU FUCKERS!

Rodney came home in June. I live 46 miles away. At 10mph, allowing for restbreaks, it could already be here...

Take off. Nuke the house from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.
 
 
Eek! A Freek!

Spiders are our friends...
He'll take care of England's nasty camel infestation....

Get some therapy by flinging this bad boy around the map (or, if you like spiders, you can feed him).

I was perfectly happy dragging the furry little bastard around, but then I released the mouse button and it started moving all on it's own and I screamed a little.

If you really want to torture him, what you do, y'see, is set a fly down on the other side of the map, then just as he's getting close enough to eat it, you drag him away! Moo hoo ha ha!

The newly found huntsman spider, from the Greater Mekong, 30cm across:

Don´t worry. It will be extinct soon. They plan to build plantations and 150 power plants there.

Well, if there's one thing the world needs more of, it's more pulp mills and dammed rivers. And if there's one thing it needs less of, it's big, scary spiders.

I bet those spiders will survive... by laying their eggs in chocomel and popping out of people´s orifices all over the world.

At first I was freaked out, but it seems to have flight goggles and a little handlebar moustache. Fantastic.

Soon he's going to find out that he can climb walls and spin webs, any size.

Why, in that link, does it say "click to enlarge" under the photo of the fucking poisonous spider? Why would anyone want to enlarge it, unless they were very, very sick?



...I clicked it. We all did, didn't we?

Can I come here to complain about the GIANT FUCKING MUSHROOM that keeps growing under my bathroom sink? FUCKING GROSS!!

It's not like a happy cap shroom it's some sort of waxy wavy mi-go CREATURE. The spouse has escort it off the premises yesterday I was too busy hiding after I touched it with my bare toe.

Why would anyone want to enlarge it, unless they were very, very sick?

Because after growing to a critical size, the spider's legs would then collapse under the weight of its own body leaving it as a helpless, twitching, writhing.... salivating.... squealing mass.

Then you can hits it with rocks till it bleeds blue gunge.

With bits of it going all on your face.

I can't believe I got that! Never seen the movie (II), but saw the trailer a handful of times on the start of video shop videos back in the 80s. Always stuck, that one.

Stuck like spider bits.

And, coincidentally, the Register headline:

2060: Humvee-sized, bulletproof meat-eating spiders attack
...Armoured arctic arachnids, the big-game hunter's dream

They're extrapolating based on news from Greenland.

Høye has spent ten years studying the flesh-eating "wolf" spider Pardosa glacialis which lives in Greenland, north of the Arctic circle.

Disturbingly, the Scandinavian spider specialist reports that over that period the polar arachnids have increased significantly in size - and correspondingly increased the thickness of their exoskeletal armour plates. In just one warm year, it seems, you can see a 10 per cent increase: and over the decade that Høye has been visiting the Greenland spider colonies there has been a 2 per cent upward trend, which he puts down to global warming.

Right. Frigid climates only. Check.
