Is it really that difficult to cut the spider out of the ridiculously sized image and just post that instead? Christ.

Hm, no hourglass so you should be ok. :) Hey, if you have carpenter ants or termites maybe these guys will take care of them for you.

What gimped connection could you possibly have to make this an issue? In this day and age this isn't really a problem.

And in this day and age, you think people would have the 1 brain cell necessary to resize and reduce quality of shitty pics not even worth posting w/ 2 clicks of a button.

OMG

If I ever found something like that in my house I wouldn't sleep for a week.

I'd just burn the house down and the surrounding neighborhood. That shit had to be spawned from something in the area.

I love these forums, because I've got a solid case of arachnophobia, so I'm able to satisfy my sick curiosity here without having to see any pictures. ugh.

Great... our first encounter with an alien life form and you had to go and start an intergalactic war. Thanks.

Heh that sounded so nerdy but I laughed :thumbsup:

It's a black recluse widow,

It first poisons and kills it's prey (Homo sapien) with a very painful paralytic neurotoxin that digests your body from the inside out over the course of 4 days. After the victim has expired it then lays its eggs in the abdominal cavity filling it with billions of spider eggs that mature as the body decomposes. After 3 weeks the gas caused by the decomposition mixed with the baby spiders feasting on the innards of the rotting corpse cause the abdominal walls to fail exploding the contents all over the place as well as releasing the mature young in to the environment to continue the cycle.

White lobe AIDS spider. The white lobe contains the HIV virus, and it causes full blown AIDS when it bites you. Watch out. :)

Another god damn spider thread! When will I learn not to click on these then click on the links. I hate spiders and seeing pics of that clock spider always upset me lol. if I saw that spider in my house, take a picture? FUCK NO not unless I had a super paparazzi zoom lense and could do it from across the street. There is no such thing as a harmless spider to me, even if they have no venom I fuckin hate the fuckin fuckers!
