The Spiders are Right Bastards Thread

[Lee]

I've just murdered my first big bastard of the season. I was sat watching the telly when I caught it out the corner of my eye on the wall at about head height.

Lauren is at work so I couldn't resort to cowardice. I considered going to bed but given that the fucker had sneaked up on me once already I didn't think it worth the risk. Crushed it with an old uni textbook. Fuck you, spider.

Apologies to bring other bugs to the party, but I went downstairs to get a drink last night and when I came back up there was a fucking MASSIVE bee/wasp/dragon thing buzzing into my light. It was doing that slow, mothership style floating about thing that lets you know it's huge and means business.

I turned the light off and (as quick as I could like a little girl) opened the curtain to try and get it to fly out the window but it wouldn't.

Decided to take it out with a badminton racket once I plucked up the courage. Still haven't found most of it :cool:

The bit I did find (literally a couple of legs and a bit of body) was still walking about though which was a bit unnerving.

We caught a couple of wasps down the pub a few weeks ago. Trapped them under a pint glass and put a lit fag in with them. Like Nazis. :cool:

My place is full of them but nothing bigger than the ones you see getting their web on in the garden and some spindly ones in the corners. A Crane Fly came in the other day and started bimbling around, proper clash of the titans stuff for a while.

[Baz]

Ladies and gentleman, I present to you one of only four people in the world who call Daddy Long Legs' "Crane Flies."

[Disco]

Brung up proper I were.

[Lee]

I've just had to kill another two. They're taking the piss now.

[Yevrah]

I was wondering where they all were?

Hopefully they stay round yours.

I don't mind spiders. They keep the flies out of the house and because I've got a house rabbit it stops them from getting to him and I'm going to stop typing.

[Disco]

Don't you find it gets tangled in your petticoats?

[leedsrevolution]

Jokes on you. I had to google what a petticoat is.

[Disco]

Yes that does reflect poorly on me.

:face: My humour is wasted on you people.

You'd rather a fly than a big fuck off spider, surely?

We've had 4-5 huge spiders running along the living room floor in the last week. Hate the little fucks.

[Magic]

Never kill spiders. Terrified but anything that kills flies is awesome.

[Magic]

Also a Giant Horntail Wasp flew in to my dining room a couple of weeks ago. What a terrifying machine that is by the way.

Flies can pass shit to rabbits and don't want a massive vet bill. So no, spiders ftw.

Fuck no. A fly buzzing around in the room when you're trying to sleep is enough to make a man go on a homicidal rampage. Spiders don't do me any harm whatsoever.
