I've disliked spiders ever since cutting one of those mommy spiders who carries her babies inside of her in half...

Well, my sister cut it. I was there to watch though.
Freaky things that scarred me as a child...

It's body was a big as a full fist too. =|

Just thousands of little spiders burst out all over the place...

*sobs*
Got those frog legs.

Sounds good to me. Although fiddlebacks and black widows bug me less than those little Antichrists themselves, chiggers. I HATE chiggers. That's possibly the best part about the end of Summer. No more chiggers.

Aren't banana spiders dangerous? Their bite could kill an adult man? ???

It's dangerous but its venom is not as lethal as the venum of the black widow.

Looks pretty cool. I don't mind spiders and leave them alone around the house. They are cool to watch if you throw a bug onto their web.

Generally I don't mind spiders. In fact they are usually preferable to the bugs they catch and eat. Course I've never been bitten by one myself yet... :-\
In order to be certain of having the right tool for every job.........one must first acquire a lot of tools

You should try to be bitten by one at least one you could might be...........
Spiderbob, spiderbob, does whatever a spider can.......... :D
Spydercobob would be more appropriate in this forum me guess :D

No problem,if your bit by the right spider,you too could become spiderman,but on the bright side,spiders kill more insects than insecticides all over the world. :salute:

Where I come from, a spider is soft drink (ideally with a higher Syrup ratio than usual) and icecream....


So a Banana Spider can only be delicious.
