The Wonderful Wizard of [OT]

haha! That's very funny actually! There's a bad joke somewhere in there about being turned on by spiders I'm sure.

I have to crawl under houses to run wires a lot of times, Nothing worse than coming face to face with spiders when you have nowhere to go.

Spider forum! Panic detection!
Some look quite cute and wonderfully colorful though!

Oh man....Don't start clicking on the related videos on that one!!! Very cool video though, Crazy that the wasp could drag the body after getting it down.




That's a pretty famous gif, creeps me out though every time.

Looks fake, but then again a lot of the times spiders look fake....

Is it reeeeeeal?

[kestegs]

Could be, it looks pretty real to me.

The full video is here:

Those kind of look like the wolf spiders we get here.

Ugh

Yea, I find myself just staring at the gif and my adrenaline gets pumping, freaky! Would probably develop some sort of toilet checking OCD if that ever happened to me.

Yea, they always scared me (for good reason)

Most venomous spider in the world, and 15 times more venomous than a rattlesnake.

Wrong, as noted above the Brazilian Wandering Spider is more venomous, as is the Six-Eyed Sand Spider and then the Sydney Funnel Web. The black widow comes in at number 4 just before the Australian version (the Red Back Spider, of which I have a few in my backyard).

I blame the internets! Or reading comprehension! Either one!!!!

It may have been referring to the US, not sure.
