I'm outta here when spiders fly. Flying giant spiders leaving webs behind. I don't think I could take it.

[–]tanadrin 17 points18 points ago

You realize that that's how baby spiders are often scattered, right? After they hatch, they all climb up someplace high and release a little bit of silk so the wind picks them up and they get carried into the air.

[–]TheCodexx 29 points30 points ago

There's a difference between silk parachutes and giant tarantulas with wings, man.

[–]bpat 5 points6 points ago

Honestly yes, but I still wanted to put it, so I wrote giant spiders to not look too dumb.

I was only recently aware of it, I've read another comic by the same people called platinum grit which is slightly less dirty, and has a bit more plot. Two of the characters are quite similar.

I have always loved this comic.

[–]valkyrio 0 points1 point ago

You know, for some reason that comic always turned me off (nudity + comedy + comic isn't something that fit in my head well) but after reading through it, it's genuinely funny.

[–]InfiniteBacon 0 points1 point ago

Look up Platinum Grit - It's very good as well.

It's not the same as a spider with wings swooping down on you to drink your drool at night.

Spiders with wings. This has never crossed my mind until this point. Spiders with wings. Not a fan.

As soon a spiders learn to fly I am packing up my shit, stopping by the store, buying all of their 12 gauge shotgun shells, and heading to my buddy's place in VT.

[–]phlamez92 0 points1 point ago

VT = forests. Forests have forest spiders. I recommend you move to Northern Canada.

[–]themangeraaad 1 point2 points ago

My buddy's place is 10 miles from Canada so I will, at the very least, use his place as a stopping point on my way up.

This basically exists, it's called the Tarantula Hawk (wikipedia | pic).

one researcher described the pain as "…immediate, excruciating pain that simply shuts down one's ability to do anything, except, perhaps, scream. Mental discipline simply does not work in these situations."

Time to buy a gun....

[–]Meathe 1 point2 points ago

It's worse when you know what they do.

The female tarantula hawk captures, stings, and paralyzes the tarantula, then either drags the spider back into her own burrow where a single egg is laid on the spider’s body. When the wasp larva hatches, it rips a small hole in the spider's abdomen, then plunges into the spider's belly and feeds, avoiding vital organs for as long as possible to keep it fresh. This stage lasts for several weeks.

This was actually foretold in the book of Revelation, strangely enough.

[–]Gemini4t 7 points8 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It was flying locusts with women's hair that made a galloping horse sound and had a scorpion sting.

It's been suggested that this was a 1st century attempt to describe what a helicopter looks like.

EDIT: looked up the verses.

Revelation 9:7-10 - "And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men. And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions. And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle. And they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were stings in their tails: and their power was to hurt men five months."

They haven't seemed to affect his life so far, why would they suddenly now that he's just learned of their existence? Seems a bit drastic, shooting yourself in the head over some new found knowledge...
