Creepy spider!

Ack, why are we reviving this thread?!
Horrible horrible pictures that I can't help but want to look at.

I agree!

Entomologist.

Note to self - LobMob doesn't know the difference between insects and arachnoid. Make fun of him at every opportunity.

You'd think a lobster would know that kind of thing.

Original story.

Ok If I walked along and got a glimpse of that spider I would run screaming back into my garage for a SHOTGUN.

Fixed that for you. Your puny homemade flamethower would only make it angry.

I see your bird-eating spiders, and raise you Sarah Palin. All things considered, I'm happy here.

(Apologies if that's getting a little too close to P&C)

I'm fairly certain that spider will only gain strength and speed from you politics talk. If you must, start a scorpion control thread.

Original story.

What needs to be known is if this is the genesis of The Weaver. I really hope not.

Zombie spider thread!

I hate to bring this up again (that's a lie), but this is too awesome to pass up.

Like a good spider, this thread shall not die.

Here's a jumping spider mating dance:

And just in case you thought that was an ant on the counter earlier, be sure to count the legs...

MUAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Sleep well!

Is that a mating dance or does it just have gas?

Creepy spider is immortal!

Oh Spider thread, how I missed you.

Why walk if you can roll?

Aaah, cute!

I have two things to say before I go take an hour-long shower and scrub myself with a wire brush.

1) I hate you all.

2) I really really hate Australia.

Noting your location...

Posting pictures of spiders from the person's home state?

Evil.

I like it.

I'm surprised this thread is still going. It's like the evil bastard step-child of the picture thread. Maybe I should change the title to "Post a picture, creep me the f*ck out."

Fact: Wherever you go in this world, you're never more than five feet away from this thread.
