freaking crying out loud... Sam that scared the crap out of me... will now no longer check this thread :b yes, I am all spider's bitch...

and the scar is about the size of a dime but considering I wasn't even in school yet when I got it, that's a nasty scar to hang in there that long...

Ouch, that had to hurt. And those are some nasty spider.

How about finding this in your bed. Eeeeeek!

That wouldn't be that bad, unless it had latched onto your eyelid or something.

Regarding those huntsman spider things...

They are also notorious for entering cars, and being found hiding behind sun visors or running across the dashboard.

Do you know how fucking bad I would freak the fuck out if I was in my car and flipped down the vison and one of those fuckers fell on my lap?

I wish I could give you a visual image, but the best I can do is to say that I would go totally fucking apeshit, leap from my car, and probably run around screaming and shaking my clothing afraid that it was still on me for the next 5 minutes. And I would probably have shat myself.

The clock spider is alive, and hiding under the clock which is still hanging on the wall. There are pics of the spider after the clock has been removed, still sitting there...

It's not mine, it's a popular internet pic.

Sorry Damalis ;]
