I Found A Spider

[lynx]

I spotted one of those enormous house spiders the other day. I usually leave them alone cos they keep any bugs down, and they keep other spiders out.

I found it again today.
Dead.
Squashed.
And I have been walking about in my bare feet. :x

[bigboab]

How did you know it was the same one? :huh:

[Lilmiss]

i dont mind them.
as long as they stay out me shoes.

Is that an excuse for finding hairs stuck between your teeth ?

[Snee]

We supposedly have have a zillion mites living on our skin, in our hair and in our homes too, how do you feel about that?

Bigboab: how&#39;s the screenshot coming?

poor spider

[james_bond_rulez]

they sell one of those zappers in stores, they are made to look like tennis racket, but in fact they are like 10,000 volt zappers.

yeah i bought one of these the other way. extremely useful again bugs like mosquetos and stuff

One day my friend called me and said to bring the "bitch" and that it&#39;s urgent. so I didn&#39;t know what&#39;s going on so I changed the batts in the racket and rushed to my freind&#39;s house. There I found 2 huge spiders "doing it", so I zapped them like there is no tomorrow, yeah and it was ...a mess :D

[iBLoStboY]

Spiders scare the heck out of me&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33; :unsure:

Check out this one. Camel Spider (http://www.ecologicproductions.com/video_projects/TSCK/endangered/TSCK_spider.html) These bastards can go 10 mph or something.

[wolfman10_2000]

10 mph holly crud :blink:

Something like this? Does it really work?

[lynx]

Nope, couldn&#39;t have been a camel spider, I&#39;m not going to run around the house at 10 mph just to tread on a spider. :rolleyes:

LOL~ :lol: :lol:

[james_bond_rulez]

yeah looks like that except mine is much more powerful. It&#39;s about 10,000 volts and about 10 amps through anything that conducts electricity.

you put a lil bugger on there, cook it for about 10 seconds, you can smell the stuff all over the house :D

yeah when I was done with the spiders it smelled like we are having BBQ&#39;s in the house :D

[thisiswhoweare]

seriously hope you werent hungry&#33;? :huh: :P

10000 VOLTS??? isnt the household voltage something like 240?

[james_bond_rulez]

no what they&#39;ve done is using loops of wire to get it up to 10,000 volts. it&#39;s actually very little power but if you got zapped you hand goes numb for hours.

[thisiswhoweare]

nice....another alternative to local anaesthetics IMO.

:) loved to go round electrocuting flies.....they annoy me so much.

HOLY SH&#33;T

what a field day with the swatter.....

[lynx]

Strange how these things always seem to be discovered by a professor who just happens to be a specialist in that particular field. Or could it be that the reporter thinks that a teacher from the local high school doesn&#39;t sound as impressive as a professor.

Now for that one I&#39;d definitely get up to 10mph - in the opposite direction I think.

[mutterings]

They reckon you that you swallow at least 10 bugs a year in your sleep&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;.......Dont ask who they they are cos i dont want to know &#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;

Yikes. Thats nuts. I&#39;d hate to fall into that web. shudders :ph34r:

I must say, I really dislike spiders. Fortunately I live in a new apartment building and there doesn&#39;t seem to be many spidres round here. I realize the benefits of spiders, though, so I don&#39;t mess with em too much. We don&#39;t really have any poisonous spiders in my area either, so that helps me not fear them as much as I would otherwise. We have the occasional brown recluse but those are generally found further south from where I live, so thats good. B)

[RGX]

we get the big bastards that run under the sofas, one last year was almost the size of my hand :|

england is becoming a serious breeding ground for the bastards, I hate them, i&#39;d rather have the other bugs than the spiders that keep them down

[thisiswhoweare]

mosquitoes are the worst i think....i spent 5hrs trying to squash the little bastard but always flew away.....got the sucker in the end and trapped him into a plastic tub and just let it run out of air....BWAHAHA

[bigboab]

Lynx could hire out her feet(with various attachments) for catching spiders. There might be money to be made there&#33; Remember no advertising on the Forum. :D

I ain&#39;t having gender reassignment just for you, buddy boy. :angry:

In case you don&#39;t know how to take that, don&#39;t bend over or you&#39;ll find there&#39;s something else you don&#39;t know how to take. :o

i seroiusly had one the size of my fist run across me curry&#33;
its was so weird.
they dont bother me in the least.

used to live in a barn in the country though, got spiders with workboots on trailing through the house all the time. http://hometown.aol.co.uk/Lynne1977uk/spider.gif

[j4y3m]

Spiders Suck :unsure:

[Lilmiss]

no, spiders bite&#33; :D

[j4y3m]

lol...daddy long legs suck

[Lilmiss]

i hate those freakin&#39; things. :angry:
we threw them at each other when we were kids.


....come to think of it, we put rosehips down each others backs, and whipped each other with branches too.....we were sick kids. :D

[lynx]

Nothing changes then.

[j4y3m]

Lol.....I Never Did That

i gotta go back to work in a mo. :(
electric was out, no phones, computers, RADIO&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;

[lynx]

My spider is BACK&#33; :)

I have just seen another large spider, I assume it is the original cos they don&#39;t grow that big overnight, and it is almost the same place as I last saw the original one alive. The question is where did the other (squashed) one come from.
Since it was right below the letter box, I think it came in (already squashed) stuck to an item of mail, which would explain why I didn&#39;t remember standing on it (phew).

Can&#39;t be much of a spider though, I haven&#39;t seen it doing any web design yet. :lol:

[tantric]

Maybe she&#39;s not webbing because she&#39;s too distraught over the loss of her mate whom you so carelessly trod upon and didn&#39;t even bother to acknowledge.

when i was younger and at school we used to have a corridor that would fill up with daddy long legs. lol the caretakers used to hover them up twice a day&#33;&#33; :lol: :lol:

[Lilmiss]

:blink: where did he leave the hoover?

i sucked up a huge spider and left the hoover in my shoe cupboard.
im convined he&#39;s hiding in a old pair of me boots.

[Marius24]

i hovered a spider up once and watched it 10 mins later climb out of the hover and run away <_<

*Edit* now i just let my dog torture the little things :lol: :lol:

[DanB]

waiting for the day you put them on again&#33;&#33; :o

dont know what happened to the hoover, it was always very funny but also a bit disturbing, for all i know they could have been turned into that days lunch&#33;&#33;&#33; :blink: :x





*edit - i do hope not though&#33;*

[bigboab]

Posting dead spiders in this or any lounge is a serious offence. Anyone caught in this heinious practice will be reported to the appropriate authorities. Moderators please note, suck suck suck. :lol:

P.S. Even if it is in the hall not the lounge&#33;
