UGH! When he grabbed the clip I thought he was going to shoot it when he saw it lol.

needless to say I would have reacted similarly, I hate spiders. I searched and didn't find this. I'm sure it's a repost. But now that I've saw it I want others who hate spiders to see it too so maybe they'll sleep as uneasy as I shall tonight because of it.
 
why is their room such a disaster? I thought Marines were required to keep their spaces impeccable?

I had a roommate a few years in college whom, while only in the National Guard, was insane when it came to order and cleanliness. His entire space was perfect corners and angles, not a speck of dust anywhere. No piece of clothing ever touched the ground.
 
If I were with those guys, a few days later, they'd open their door, discover that the doorway was covered with plastic, enclosing a dozen of those spiders between the door and the plastic - opening the door allows them to all run inside.

Maybe it was uber clean before they realized that big ass spider was in there, and it got all trashed from them tearing it up looking for the spider.
 
The Solifugae apparently have neither venom glands nor any venom-delivery apparatus such as the fangs of spiders, stings of wasps, or venomous setae of the caterpillars of Lonomia species.

it's not even poisonous.
 
You have to be kidding me! I would find it, pick it up with my bare manly hand and promptly squash him. And then proclaim my manliness.

What movie have I seen that in? :sneaky:

They are pretty big and look like this...

So, yeah, I'd probably want to stomp it before going to sleep as well.
 
I don't care if it's not poisonous... I'm not sleeping anywhere near it. I once woke up to a house centipede crawling next to my ear. That took days to get over. I'm lucky it was still on my pillowcase - I brought it over to the toilet and flushed it.

I would keep it as a pet. Now if it was a cricket I would tare my room apart like them. The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

At one point before I knew her my wife saw a centipede crawling on her ceiling, freaked out and attempted to pepper spray it. Pepper spray, applied vertically, in an enclosed room. Guess how that turned out? She still talks about the time she pepper-sprayed herself because of a scary bug.

Also, apparently pepper spray does nothing to centipedes. Kaboom (the cleaning product), however, kills them really quick.
 
I can't say I would act any differently. If I know a spider is in the room there would be no sleeping until it meets its maker.
