Spiders

[bebee]

A spider almost the size of my hand crawled across the bed this morning, I only knew about because she next to me started screaming uncontrollably, I had to crush it in order to stop her from losing her voice and to prevent it’s re appearance any time soon.

Was I right to do so? Does your flesh shudder at the site of one? Look around you now you’re bound to find one!

Did you know that most insects enter your house on you? When you open the door, do you check for insects dropping from the top, that’s where they are when it gets cold at night.

A spider is not an insect and no, you should not have crushed it.

A spider the size of your hand? In the UK?

I'm not really liking the sound of that to be honest.

Perhaps he's Jeremy Beadle.

Spiders are good. Unless you happen to be one of the false black widows in my garage then you DIE!

You sure it wasnt just very close to your eye and your whole perception thing is a bit screwed up? A bit like this:

Probably the size of a 5p coin in reality...

Im one for live and let live, it was doing you know harm, you should have put it outside instead of snuffing out a sentient being.

And by sentient i mean something that is capable of experiencing suffering

This man's right. Did you not see how upset that spider was when professor moody used the cruciatus curse on it?

I have a spider phobia, but would never intentionally kill anything.

What do you mean by suffering? Spiders don't have emotional responses.

[G_T]

For pity's sake it's only a spider.

Kill it or don't kill. If you don't get it out of your house it'll die in the dry atmosphere anyway. If it does manage to escape there's a good chance it will die quickly all the same.

Good or evil they're both fine choices.

Is it time to dust off the famed PH spider/kitchen clock picture..?
