I don't get too boogered up over a spider, what I hate are their cousins the ticks. Hate 'em, hate 'em, hate 'em. I have seen deer with so many ticks on their ears they looked like bunches of grapes. Hate 'em.

Here's one that found its way into my cousin's home in Palisades (HI), the Brown Huntsman Spider a.k.a. Hawaiian Cane Spider:

Ye gods, yes. I live about 175m east of the Amtrak/VRE line, and walk my dog on the access trails they have back there.
I swear that these things could build a web across a set of NFL goalposts, so if I didn't let the mutt off the leash to romp and whirl the thing around me like a pair of nunchuks, I'd be covered with the things ricky-tick.

I love the great state of Texas, born and raised.
But i want to move to Wyoming desperately!
I'll just leave this here.

Dear god, spiders... I walked into a strand of web that crossed the road spanning from house to house. Those bastards weave little web parachutes and sail through the air.
The biggest spider I ever saw had an abdomen the size of an adult thumb - the kind you don't want to step on because of the mess it'll make. My mom sucked it up with the vacuum.
A friend of mine was bit in his sleep. The bite on his hip caused a half dollar-sized patch of necrosis to leave a gaping crater in his skin.
I was watching a movie at the same friend's house. I sit down and, out of the corner of my eye, I spot this giant mother****er on the wall about two feet way from me. I get the **** away and my friend tries to trap it under a jar. That cock sucker was so fast, it LEAPED of the wall and raced across the floor. We spent twenty minutes looking for it, there was no way the lights were going off until we found it. When we caught it, it got my preferred treatment - a gasoline bath. It gets absorbed through the exoskeleton and destroys their nervous system.
Luckily, my four cats are very keen hunters. They'll spot a bug across the room in the dark and go eat it.
