BATHROOM SPIDERS!

psshhhh that's the perfect time to give a spider the ether method..


you beat that fucker with a shoe or baseball bat...then you pick it up with something like a tissue...drop it in the toilet, then take a huge crap on it (piss will work if you're in the mood), spit in the toilet and flush that sumbitch down.
 
When my parents decided to move out into the country (out of nostalgia purely), we went to a house that was beautiful. We moved in and found out that everything was not as it seemed. It was infested with giant wolf spiders. Giant maybe as in a size of a 50 cent piece but honestly, these fuckers were large and in charge. Apparently they ran the house. So my parents, freaked out and pissed, decided to wage a war against these fuckers. We had spider traps everywhere and sprayed every web. However it seemed like every week, we'd find a new egg sac or worse, a recently hatched sac that had dozens of tiny spiders crawling around in a web.

They were everywhere and eventually, I was used to it:

"Oh, a spider crawled out of a corner in the bathroom. Hey, at least its not a big one."
"Gee, I woke up to three spider bites this morning. Beats the time I had four."
"A new egg sac? This is the biggest one yet."

We never were able to win the war. We were able to control them to the point where it was a once in a while thing to see them. We moved out years later to a house (again, in the country) where it didn't have any spiders. Still doesn't. It was about 10 miles away so I'm lost as to why one place was spider infested and another one wasn't. The old house was surrounded by what seems to be a mass population of cicadas too. I miss the old shells they used to leave behind.
 
Aargh .. I hate those big house spiders after my SHOWER FOM HELL.
A few months ago I was all set to enjoy a nice hot shower but failed to notice the big invader who had settled in one of the wrinkles of my shower curtain.
I'm not particualry arachnophobic but I don't think antyhing will ever beat the shock I got from suddenly being face-to-face with a huge bastard spider just a few inches away from my head while just standing there naked and exposed.
 
I just found this wicked little guy in my garden while cutting some roses and he was kind enough to pose for some pictures. =p I was wondering if any of the experts in here might be able to tell me what kind of spider he is.

Oh, yeah? Try this:

When I was a kid, a spider somehow managed to get into my ear. At first, I didn't know what it was. It sounded like the sound that water makes inside your ear except the sound would occur even when I wasn't moving. My cousin was babysitting me at the time and she didn't know what to do so we just waited until my mom got home from work. Once she finally arrived, my mom had the idea of pouring water into my ear and then having me lean the other way. Upon doing this, a big spider fell out of my ear and into the sink.

Yeah, I haven't much liked spiders since then. In fact, I even had something of a complex about it for awhile afterwards. For at least a few years, I would wear a ninja mask when sleeping in order to block any spider entry points into my head.

Looks like a Garden Spider. You in England / Europe. Their pretty common here.
 
---UPDATE---

So that fucker in the lamp finally died. But I saw some movement the other day...

Could it be!? IT IS! There's some sort of rouge spider that has squeezed the guts out of the other spider in a nasty circle!

I also came back from vacation the other day to find this (!):

I guess it's not safe to leave clean woks out on the stove anymore...

I like the google ad :P Spiders aren't much to worry about if you know which ones to look for that are dangerous. Most of them will leave you alone if you leave them alone.
