while looking at this, my cat twitched his tail in his sleep and it landed right on my arm. I nearly threw my laptop across the room in terror

[–]Abezilla116 1 point2 points ago

I literally whimpered when I saw it and I swear tears where forming and my cat got freaked the fuck out.

[–]joeknowswhoiam 9 points10 points ago

I prefer to look at the big one as a malformed baby that had an hormonal problem or something... it helps me not thinking about the possibility that one day all the little ones might get as big as the big one.

[–]toothphoneegg 7 points8 points ago

I've been slowly walking my significant other through David Attenborough specials on insects and spiders, and very slowly we've made progress on changing the attitude from disgust and horror to indifference.

[–]JeriMouse 29 points30 points ago

My rule is, I don't mind bugs outside. But the moment they come inside, to my territory, it's war.

[–]steeltoedsneakers 9 points10 points ago

Well if that's the case, that big bastard in the picture is your first line of defence.

[–]JeriMouse 0 points1 point ago

That's what my cat and my giant dog are for. They love to kill bugs.

[–]time20 0 points1 point ago

Does anybody have a spare rocket launcher handy?

[–]toothphoneegg 1 point2 points ago

I don't mind spiders as long as they stay in the corners of my room, free to eat as many mosquitoes as they please. If they venture past that unspoken social agreement they get scooped up and put outside.

[–]JeriMouse 0 points1 point ago

If I'm in the mood to be nice, I'll put them outside. But there have been several times where I'll be going to take a shower and there will be one in the bathtub. I'll rinse that bastard down in a heartbeat. Usually my cat or my dog get to the bugs before I do though. It's quite amusing to watch them hunt a centipede together. It's the only time they get along.

[–]windom_earle 2 points3 points ago

Where can I find these? I'm kind of a sissy about bugs

[–]Critical_CLVarner 6 points7 points ago

Look up Life in the Underbrush. It's a 5 or 6 part series and is one of the best I've ever seen.

[–]lishka 4 points5 points ago

Life in the Undergrowth, no?

[–]Critical_CLVarner 3 points4 points ago

Yes! Undergrowth! Sorry I'm an idiot.

[–]toothphoneegg 0 points1 point ago

Also, here.

[–]windom_earle 1 point2 points ago

Thanks! Will do

[–]toothphoneegg 0 points1 point ago

An upvote for you, sir.

[–]toothphoneegg 0 points1 point ago

I've found a huge cash of them at my local library, you should check yours especially if the libraries near you have a sharing system set up (that library may not have the dvd, but they can order it from a nearby one). Netflix had a few but I don't think they do anymore so that was unhelpful, but I suppose keep checking that as they may add them back. Generic education really about bugs I've found is a good thing. Understanding they just going about their daily routine, and ones, like this one are much more maternal then they appear.

[–]MsMorningstar 0 points1 point ago

I found one of those in my bra drawer yesterday...I threw the whole thing in the dumpster.

[–]nighttwolf93 21 points22 points ago

i dont give a damn what kind of spider it is. i could care less if it was a dancing spider that gives you money for no reason. its a damn spider. -__- lol

[–][deleted] 7 points8 points ago

Defines my fear of spiders.

[–]theseheartswontstop 1 point2 points ago

After giving that comment careful consideration, I have come to this conclusion:

Upon meeting a dancing spider who gives cash for no reason: close my eyes, get one of those extending arm-reach-grab-things, take said money. Then, film it (whilst my eyes remain shut) from a safe distance. After it tires of its dance, ask it out to tea, put poison in the tea. After it drinks it, light it on fire, throw it into an abyss, and spit on it for good measure. Open eyes, post video on reddit, keep cash given by spider (after sanitizing it thoroughly), and profit.

[–]nighttwolf93 1 point2 points ago

lmao xD, you sir or ma'am are creative

[–]theseheartswontstop 0 points1 point ago

The machinations of my mind are an enigma.

[–]RedRoostur 1 point2 points ago

Is this a certain kind of Wolf Spider? All my searches show them no bigger than an inch.

[–]italia06823834 2 points3 points ago

I don't know much, you can copy the link and ask /r/spiders. They'll be able to tell you a lot more.

[–]trainingmontage83 0 points1 point ago

I've never experienced it myself, but I know people who have been bitten by wolf spiders and they say it is quite painful.

[–]italia06823834 1 point2 points ago

Well the venom won't kill you or cause necrosis or anything. But yes, it will hurt. They have some pretty big fangs

[–]trainingmontage83 1 point2 points ago

Right. So...harmful status confirmed. The other thing about wolf spiders that kind of freaks me out is the fact that they run down their prey. I don't have much of a problem with spiders who just hang out in their web all day, since they aren't going to have much incentive to bother me. But wolf spiders...yeah, I definitely smash them any time they enter my domicile (which thankfully is not very often)

[–]Heroshade 0 points1 point ago

Wolf spiders are brown.

[–]SirCrocodile 6 points7 points ago

i would abandon the house

[–]PiedPiper45 16 points17 points ago

you wouldn't kill it, merely upset the beast

[–]FatBlackWoman 7 points8 points ago

[–]Dickfore 16 points17 points ago

You could, but then you'd have hundreds of small NOPE's engulfed in flame, crawling all over your ceiling and inevitably falling on you. And then there'd be one giant NOPE on fire, who will obviously be enraged that you just killed all her children.

[–]Tho76 6 points7 points ago

False. You cannot kill enraged mobs.

[–]LeeHyori 0 points1 point ago

I've killed enraged bosses at low health, though. They just do insane damage and one shot the tank, but before they reach you, you can kill them, or if people get bubble/get bubbled.

[–]JohnAbruzzi 4 points5 points ago

Kill it with VIOLENCE!

[–]Spaz_Mah_Tazz 1 point2 points ago

Oh god no you will upset the beast. napalm napalm napalm napalm napalm napalm

I believe an air strike is necessary for this particular Nope situation

Gonna have to use an AOE attack for that mess.

I've seen a bunch of fucked-up shit, and this was nothing compared to some posts. However, NEVER before has a post made me literally jump and throw my iPod across the room.

[–]agreezalot 5 points6 points ago

Audibly gasped when I clicked on this image. My daughter asked what I was looking at, so I turned my laptop in her direction, she screamed and put her hands over her head. Yeah, I'm thinking we have a little arachnophobia in our family.

[–]soramirr 1 point2 points ago

Dude, you should have opened something else quickly and showed her that.

[–]tanerdamaner 1 point2 points ago

The most rational thing to do in these kinds of situations is to kill them one by one by bluntly hitting them with you erect penis.

[–]jarsthatwontopen 0 points1 point ago

Oh god, I saw the NOPE in this title and knew instantly what it was going to be, clicked out of habit anyways. Was then promptly reminded of the time when I had a spider's babies hatch on my leg, thousands of them. I could feel them, crawling along their little baby spider way. Looked down and screamed like a banshee, then continued to flail around like a bat-shit crazy fish out of water, watching them scamper away to hide in my kitchen, waiting for their prime moment of attack. I ran out of that Room and sat outside crying for hours. Didn't go back into the kitchen for days.

Yeah, arachnophobia sucks.

[–]themegchan 0 points1 point ago

[–]respawn_in_5_4_3_2_1 0 points1 point ago

nothing a lighter and a can of some flammable substance... i suggest WD40 because it not only burns but has a really cool sparkling effect as well.

[–]ZMBKLR 0 points1 point ago

That looks like a Huntsman spider...My husband had one get on his head back in Australia and he screamed like a bitch til his mum came in to rescue him...those are harmless

[–]douchequadbike 0 points1 point ago

Is the internet ever going to get desensitized to spiders?

[–]FordSVT1 0 points1 point ago

This spider has done her job. For a hundred million years, her ancestors have lived and died to reproduce, all leading to the moment when this little creature completes her own link in the chain of evolution.

Maybe one of these little fuckers will eat the mosquito that would have otherwise given you an itchy bite this summer. Spiders are cool.

Since there is always a glut of "Nope" comments every time someone posts something like this, I would like to go a completely different route by saying "Yup".

Yup, this is something I would definitely, definitely run the bloody hell away from. Yessir, yup, yes, da, si, yeah, and of course.

  • Hold lighter in front of nozzle

Any unburned spider killer will surely aid you as a bioweapon, you will need all the help you can get.
