Poshnu is the spider capital of tuvalu. Our nation's flag
has the tarilimithicus perificus on it, an 8 foot spider
unique here... you should hear out national anthem.

Only in the north currents do we recieve an occasional
coconut, so our leading scientists (which are all me, since
I'm the only citizen) have deduced that we are an island
south of some landmass somewhere that has coconut trees.

well at least i am shocked roybivcore! Oh my god... i am so
relieved we don't get black widows over here. I'm sure i
wouldn't even have dared to kill it... if i found one in my
basement i'd probaly scream my lungs out and run away as
fast as possible :-p

Even regular (non-poisonous) spiders totally freak me out.
If i knew the little monster was also lethal... it would be
a nightmare!

about that.

Was that in 2 by 2? (I think that's what it was called..) my
parents found an exotic snake once and called the pet shop
to come and pick it up :D

um, switchfrontside...

black widows are poisonous. and they do kill people. but the
difference between them and all the big scary animals you
have in austrailia is you can't hear them. and probably
won't see them.

Spiders have this great streamline look. Evolution has been
kind to spiders as they are the assassins of the insect
kingdom. ooooh they're so evil!

Black widows aren't actually that dangerous.

I think spiders are beautiful.

died.

insects usually have a great ability to shut their bodies
down when they need to. they usually absorb their air
through their "skin" so even if they are in water, if they
have part of their body sticking out they can survive for a
long time.

the things they use for absorbing air are called spiracles.

I got bitten by a hobo spider about two weeks ago, the
smaller buddy of the Brown Reculse. It sucked. A lot.

I was hallucinating for two days straight, was in searing
pain on my finger and still am and will have a lovely scar
to show for it. Stupid thing won't heal for another 20 days,
had to check in with the hospital. Most pain I've ever
experienced.

I would have much rather been bitten by a black widow

I know a guy who was bitten on the leg by a hobo spider, I
think he almost had to have it amputated.

I like spiders, just not when the fuckers bite..

I got bit by an unidentified (not totally undiscovered or
anything, just the dr's werent sure which kind it was)
spider on my foot, and it felt like my foot had literally
been blasted by a blowtorch (sincere burning pain) and it
turned hugely purple for like 2 weeks....
