Spiders
The further I remain from spiders, the better. Any close proximity to the eight-legged monsters is most undesirable (for the both of us!)

As a fledgling Buddhist i cant really hate spiders. They are still my brothers and i have to love them. So i start treat these nasty little creatures not with hate, but with respect, giving and expecting. “You like that corner? Me too, so get the hell somewhere else!” Also, it is a great comics.
That was our apartment….I had a spider drop out of a ceiling vent onto the back of the toilet with a loud “PLINK!” and about had a heart attack, I had a HUGE and FAST spider hiding under a blanket chest that took like 20 minutes to kill (I tried to be brave, really, but hubby had to do it for me), I had one fall out of my hair, hubby found one in his pillowcase….
Now we have a house and I’ve only seen two small spiders. Must’ve been something about that area.
Aww, come on now. spiders are really cute, once you get to know them. And extremely useful.
Of course, their place in the world is OUTSIDE my house . . .
You should really learn to capture them and rehabilitate them. I had trained spiders that kept my house free of skeeters.

AAaaa…. musical fingers! Plinking… now that is scary. My mom used to live in old military quarters in Quantico, VA…. the brick buildings were rather old and the laundry was downstairs. One night she and my sister went down to tend to washing duties and saw a spider on the wall the size of your hand… and THICK… not no spindly legged thing either!!!! SCARY!
Judy respects the spiders… but I have trained her to kill them if they get too close… just as she’s trained me to kill snails… (I have to force myself to do this for her).
Brig, it’s weird, but I don’t recall encountering any snails around my area of the USA ever since I’ve moved here in 2005… whereas in Ashford, Kent, England, there’d be that one time of the year where you’re having to walk around looking down all the time so as to avoid the “CRUNCH” of a snail shell beneath your shoe…
I know how Randie feels! Since it’s been getting warmer, all the bugs have decided our house is a good place to invade. xP Including spiders…
Hey, if I can save the nimble eight leggers, Brig, you can stomp a few slimers who are tryin’ to eat my strawberries! Spiders are very useful, I agree…but I gotta protect the ‘toonist from heart palpitations!
There was a Night Gallery episode so need to NEVER watch, Brig. A guy in his apartment kills a spider, but later sees an identical spider that’s a little bit larger. He kills it, but then later sees an identical spider that’s a little bit larger AGAIN.
You can guess where THIS ended up…
Night Gallery! That show was SPOOKY! And I am soooooo glad I didn’t see THAT episode. I remember one with a crawling hand which went after people… messed me up.
