I usually leave smaller spiders alone. Big ones though, will get fucking evicted. I catch them and put them outside, mostly because I can't stand the crunchy noise when you squash them.

There is no merit in saving the life of an insect. Its a bug. It's in your house. Kill that motherfucker.

For all intents and purposes of a nonscientific nature: yes they are, and shut up you pedantic asshole. I know you're Mr. Spider Expert and all, but you have to realize what an annoying buttmonkey saying this makes you.

This isn't science class. Every creepy crawly thing with an exoskeleton and too many legs = insect.

/Agree

There are a few spider species I kill; ones that could hurt me or my kids (recluses, widows, wolf spiders maybe).
The rest, fuck it. They were here first.

Some of them are damn cute too. Don't know how anybody could bring themselves to smash one of these:


P.s. The OPs video was faked. You can tell by the shitty blur when the spider leaps.

I like spiders, they keep themselves to themselves and they eat all the other insects that will almost bite me while I'm sleeping.

I used to be scared of them but they don't bother me now. If I have to move one I'll still get that pang of fear adrenaline and then just pick it up anyway.

But then I live in England, the spiders here are like 5" or so across at their very biggest and even those are rare. That and virtually none of them are venomous.

Better keep quite and appear intelligent, than speak and remove all doubt, buddy...

Where I'm from, 1st graders know there's a difference between spiders and insects, fuck, those critters have as much in common as we have with fish, so you have to realize you come off as a complete and utter imbecile when you so vehemently defend your "right" to be wrong.
Shit son, I'm surprised you can actually read and write...

[General Butt.Naked]

We're aware this wasn't a real spider, correct?Spiders that big are generally too fat and unweildy to be crawling opn walls like that. Bigass spiders stay on the ground or in trees. Fake and gay.

First off, I didn't call it an insect. I'm not wrong about anything... or defending anyone's "right" to be (putting something in quotation marks usually implies someone said it in that context - I did not). Secondly, yes - we all know there are distinct differences between arachnids and insects. Most of us know anyway. The most obvious would be the number of legs. So yeah. We're aware.

What you're apparently not aware of is that people are not using the word scientifically here. There's no need to correct them. They're using the word colloquially to mean every creepy crawly thing with an exoskeleton and too many legs. See the English language is malleable like that - outside of scientific circles, words do not have concrete, specific meanings that cannot be violated. That's why grass can mean the stuff you step on or the stuff you smoke.

And lol maybe you should take you own advice about keeping quiet to appear intelligent - no we do not have as much in common with fish as insects do with arachnids. Even if you're being intentionally hyperbolic that's a wildly inaccurate statement to make for someone who got into this mess by being a pedantic shitbag who was whinging about language not conforming to scientific standards.

It has nothing to do with whether or not this is "science class", it has however quite a lot to do with someone confusing two very different types of animals, even though kids half their age knows better. You appear to imagine it's an attractive trait to be totally oblivious to something everybody knows, and you keep on defending it, why?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't "grass" used as a slang, in much the same way "weed" is, when we're talking about cannabis?
I'm fairly certain it is, whereas "insect" when used to describe something that very clearly isn't an insect appears to be simply used incorrectly, you might want to look up the definition; Merriam-Webster's disagree with you by the way.
Here's a suggestion, next time you need a word to describe a random nondescript invertebrate with an exoskeleton, try using the word "bug" as that would pretty much fit your needs dead on, and you wouldn't have to get flamed by me for defending incorrect word usage.

Don't be too sure about that, we're just about as far from fish in the taxonomic system, as spiders are from insect, both pairs split up at Phylum level, so it seems you're wrong.

Not nearly as inaccurate as you imagine, but then again, you're the one confusing spiders with insects, so I guess you could be imagining just about anything...

Lol fake.

I bought a few bug nets after I found a female mouse spider in my basement pantry. I thought about leaving it alone to eat the mice... but I think i'll let the traps fulfill that role. I caught it between two paper plates and chucked it outside.

Like a week later I found a dead baby mouse spider (it fucking propagated) near where I threw it out. Some flying insect with reflective blue wings flew down and started dragging it away for it's next meal.

Thats fucking creepy. What strange alien planet do you live on?

And apprently mouse spiders dont eat mice. I dont care that much really. Im not gonna shit myself with rage at your ignorance...as seems to be the trend above. Just so you know, just a friendly pointer....no reason to keep them around.

It sound a lot like a what you saw was the aftermath of the spider being attacked by a "Tarantula Hawk", it's the common name given to a couple o' species of wasps that have specialized in hunting spiders as food for their larvae.
And no, mouse spiders don't eat mice, you'd want "Theraphosids" (commonly but wrongly often referred to as "Tarantulas") for that.

I lol that you wasted all that time breaking up my post into various quotes and looking up definitions to prove how wrong I was when you were in fact wrong. It's okay though, because you went and had sex with your girlfriend after. You know, like you pointed out in your post. That makes it way, way less pathetic.

Way less...

Pathetic.

[Township Rebellion]

Why so scared of spiders? They have their place in nature, but not in my room. I see one, I kill it immediately, along with any other critter I might find in my room. There is only one spider I fear however, the Black Widow. Those ones I'm especially careful with, and instead of picking it up in a kleenex or whatever I'll kill it first and wipe up the mess. No bugs or spiders in my living space, I'm quite strict about undesirables roaming around freely.

If you find a spider the size of your fist, its ok to use guns on it. For real, thats the way I look at it. There was actually a pretty big spider on my bathroom floor last night, like dime sized, I didnt even fuck around, got my lighter, grabbed my can of spray axe, and hit him with a 2 foot flame before he knew what was going on. Couldnt risk him getting away.
