Giant Spider On Me!!!

Sittin here surfin.......feel something on my foot. I jump up as i'm a pussy when it comes to bugs. I turn on my light and I see a spider with a body the size of a dime and legs the size of butter knives, but thick, and bent high, not low to the ground. I about shit myself. If I don't kill that fucker I am never coming in this room again, and I sleep here . I grab a shoe, walk across my couch, the spider is right by the leg of my desk and the baseboard of my wall, if it runs that way I wont get it and i'll never be the same. I lower the shoe slowly, i make sure the shadow covers it to see if it'll cause him to run, it doesn't. I get bold and lower it, and with a quick thud i slam it down on the fucker yelling "DIE, DIE, DIE". I step back, the legs are twitching, I slam the shoe again. I survey the thing, it's the size of a cup coaster, i nearly faint. I go into the kitchen and get my grandmother to come pick it up and dispose of it as I sit down and allow my heart to start beating again. Now im nervous and scared about being here. Someone hold me.

Hmm, spiders attacking you...yes, good, this is progress. Now, how can you relate your hallucinations to reality? What is it you are really scared of? We'll discuss this more at your next session.

Dude, that's not right. What the fuck did the spider ever do to you? I hope the flying spaghetti monster is swift in his actions.

This may be one of those moments you never get back.

Also, put something in the picture for size comparisons.

Spare me the melodrama. I'm sure the spider was looking for shelter from your wretched spider-killing machine of a grandma.

Did you ever stop to think about whether the spider had children or a spouse? Probably not. Did you stop to think about whether or not the spider had a life insurance policy to protect said family? Probably not.

I'm sick of you torturing and killing other beings just because you can. You should seek therapy. Maybe it's not too late to turn your life around and learn something about social awareness. We are all brothers and sisters; including humans, spiders, and flying spaghetti monsters.

I had a college roommate who, about once a week, hallucinated what you experienced in real life. Except it was dozens of them crawling on him. And he would wake up at 2am screaming and jump out of bed yelling "Get them off of me, get them off of me!"

Man, he sucked as a roommate.

So, for the last few weeks I've had this spider in my car. I've not seen the little bastard, but I know he's there because every time I open the door there's a fresh set of spiderwebs inside the car.

Needless to say, we've taken to driving the wife's car to work (wife & I work close to each other).

So, last Friday we're coming back from a party at about 11:30 and I'm driving down I-294 at about 80 mph (I-294, also known as "The Autobahn" in Illinois - I was still getting passed) when right in front of me, dropping down from the sunshade, comes the spider.

Dropping into my lap.

Luckily traffic was very light so I'm not impeded as I cross three lanes to the shoulder whilst simultaneously batting the spider onto the driver's side door.

I open up the door, but by now the little bastard has jumped onto the dash and is heading for the steering wheel. I try to hit him, but the confines of the car are such that I can't get a clean shot, and he ends up on the floor. I try one more time, but the little bastard's too quick and shoots away into a random hole (it's an old car).

Damn.

Wednesday. About 8:30 P.M., after Ultimate Frisbee, I'm driving out of the park when I happen to look at the driver's side door, and there he is. Slam on the brakes, drop out of gear, pull on the e-brake (stick shift car), and open the car door.

This time the little bastard stays on the door, but drops into the storage compartment in the door. I'm ready to wait him out, though. He crawls back up, and at just the right time, I flick him onto the ground.

Are we done? No.

He advances back towards the car. But now I've got a random piece of the car that fell off a while ago that I've kept around in case it was important, so I block his path. He's stymied, tries to go around, but I block him again. We do this a few times. Finally he backs off, and heads in the other direction. I watch him go, do a quick sweep to check for any trailing "attachments" to the car, then jump back in and get the heck out of there (with visions of the little bastard springing back onto the car at the last minute).

VICTORY!!!

I'm with you guys. If I know there's a giant spider in a room in my house, but I don't know where... screw it, that room is dead to me.

You better realize that one of the only reasons women put up with having men around is because of their ability and willingness to kill bugs - and spiders! You'll be single forever unless you conquer this fear!!!

My wife has no fear of bugs (fish on the other hand...), so she usually kills those. My job is to take care of mice, which I find much easier to deal with.

My wife works in pesticide regulation, and she still won't kill the spiders.

It's ridiculous. She won't kill a spider (while I cower in the next room) because she feels bad for it. Then she goes off to work and signs the paperwork that makes a spider holocaust possible.

I can't quite put my finger on why, but this is by far my favorite sentence of the whole story.

This morning I had a similar situation with a gianormous wasp that somehow made himself a home in my bathroom. I was running late for work, but couldn't finish getting ready because the little bastard was dive-bombing my head the entire time I was trying to finish drying my hair. So there I stood with a fly swatter & a can of hair spray. The funny thing is, I was hoping that my hair spray would be strong enough to freeze his little bastard wings together so he couldn't fly away. Well, it didn't freeze him, but it stunned him long enough to get a good clear shot with the ol' fly swatter. Stupid bugs...
