You see, this post is funny because just last week I was sitting in my car talking to a buddy at which point I looked up and there was this spider about a inch in diameter sitting there staring at me...I jumped out the car as fast as I could and was damn near squealing in front of my house. I dont like spiders...

Well, when I was in the philippines staying with family in a small town I had a REALLY close encounter with a big spider. It all happened when I was half awake in bed, I felt small crawling things all over my arms and just dismissed it as ants. Then about an hr. later woke up and found that I had rolled over and killed a big mom spider carrying its babies on its back ....I guess I was in shock cause i just stared at it for like 2 mins before I jumped off the top bunk and took a huge breather outside. Glad I didn't sleep with a black widow

I wish you didn't even post this cause now im all creeped out. I hate spiders, I hate them. I can't get close enough to kill them. You have any idea how demasculating it is to go cry to your girlfriend to kill a freaking spider?... I do. It sucks, but them things scare the god out of me.

I had a big furry one that used to live in my room. It was a hunter spider and didn't leave webs so I was cool with it for a while, figured it would eat any other creepy crawlies that go in. But one night when I was sleeping I felt something creeping up my leg, when I put my hand down all I felt was big furry spider. I'm pretty sure I left the bed in a vertical direction, and the spider went flying. Both of us were traumatized by the experience and I never saw the spider again.

But seriously, I hate spiders. I park my car under a tree at my house and for some reason once it warms up the tree fills up with these little white spiders. They are constantly dropping onto the car and they climb in while I drive with the windows down. I hate it. I once was trying to kill two of them in my car at the same time while driving down the road. I eventually just pulled over to the side of the road and went to town tearing the car apart to kill them.

Default Funny Spider Story

A while back when I was living on Guam, my buddy Jimmy, me, and three others were out on a hilltop doing some antenna work. Jimmy saw one of the Banana Spiders that are all over Guam crawling across the pavement towards him. He screamed like a girl and leaped into the truck and locked the door. His eyes were as big as saucers. What struck me as the funniest was the locking of the truck door. I didn't stop laughing for about 15 minutes.

I guess Archanophobia is real.

Don't kill it, let it live!
Free it somewhere other than your house.

I like spiders. I'm the spider caretaker in my house. My kids find a spider, I take it outside and let it go. I hear my wife scream, I come running to rescue the spider. They're usually harmless. I carry them outside in my hands.

Spiders I can handle. Snakes, however, are a completely different story. If I even thought there was a snake in my car, I wouldn't drive it. At all. I would call in to work. I would starve if I had no food. I would not drive that car. I would need solid evidence that there was no snake in my car to even get within 10 feet of it.
