    I get home, about to sleep and this fucking thing is on my pillow. Oh yeah, it's poisonous.

    BTW I am terrified of spiders, so this was REALLY REALLY FUN
    and now I can't sleep.

    That's not big at all. I F*cking hate spiders too. I saw a massive one last year that could easily cover my hand. It ran right in front of me. My friends said that they never knew I could run so quickly :D I know how you feel though ASSEMbler ! Spiders are the one insect that I can't stand.

    PS: I know Spiders aren't real insects because they have 8 legs not 6 :p

    Yeah, that looks like a brown recluse (maybe too big?)..But then again, I would probably say over 50 spiders look like one since I'm not an expert : p
     
  5. I've had a lot of spider bites before, but I don't recall them doing anything to my asshole. Then again, I've never been bitten by a brown recluse - maybe they do something far more terrifying than just poison you.

    Now all you have to do is find the hundreds of eggs it probably laid somewhere in your house.

    Spiders is good. They eat the cockroaches.

    brown recluse gives you "necrosis", right? Where the affected body part starts rotting, unless you amputate it or get like 100 electroshocks a day, I saw it on discovery.
     
  9. I do believe the brown recluse venom is known to dissolve the tissue around the bite area, but with as strong as the venom is, I think getting a hole in your hand where you were bit would be the least of your worries...
     
  10. Doesn't look like a brown recluse. Brown recluse usually has two parallel white markings on the back of its abdomen. In the south if you kick over a rock near a stream or river your bound to uncover at least one. Looks like an Eastern Brown Wolf spider which is very lightly poisoned. BTw the hole in your skin and some pain ARE your biggest concern as an astronomically low number of people are killed by Brown Recluse or any American spider for that matter. Human casualties are confined almost exclusively to children under 18 months old. More people die of bee sting in the US each year. As it stands even the Black Widow would be hard pressed to make MOST people more than pained and annoyed. Be greatful we don't have the Sydney Funnel Web spider here as they do in Australia.

    I also hate spiders. And if i'm not mistaken, the smaller they are, more poison.

    PS: Another thing i hate are ants.

    Like everything, cockroaches in the united states are too big IN SIZE. I don't have any thank god, but they are huge here.

    Spiders make an egg sack out of webbing, right? Then guard it until they die. I don't think I have too much to worry about.

    Yeah, I think it's a wolf spider. However I didn't know they attack your asshole!

    My grandmother got bitten by a brown recluse about 15 years ago, it nearly killed her, and when she died years later it had affected her ability to clot blood so badly that they couldn't do anything for her.

    It's a quote from Fletch Lives. That's all.

    Plenty of cockroaches and rats in Tokyo.... they roaches never get above the 3rd floor though, unlike Hawaii where we get them regularly on the 39th. :( Tokyo has those mutant crows too. They are smart as shit.

    Aargh, the Japanese cockroaches were scary, as well as all the animals that made the chirping sound... they're like black butterflies isn't it ?

    How smart?
    We have Squirrels, in which you need to be a mad genius to keep them out of the bird feeder.

    Don't have much in the way of wierd insects or spiders around here.

    We get mountian lions, and cyotes. They'll come down and penetrate pretty far into populated areas in search of food (which usually involves rooting through trash, although they also make tasty meals out of dogs and cats.) They usually disappear once people start showing up with guns.
