Why are some gamers such cowards when it comes to these?
>>750664282learning about how orb weavers be weavin' they orbs was fucking fascinating and god damn they're way cooler than the basic bitch net ones made to capture flying shit
>>750665941
>>750664282Armadeira, my beloved.
i know someone who is scared of these...
>>750666129bitch spent more time recording herself than recording the damn spider
You cant be scared of an animal smaller than your cock and mine Is bigger than those 3 spiders
>>750666449your cock will not survive their bite
>>750664282TELL ME ABOUT HAHNWHY DID THE SPIDER ASSASSINATE HIM?
is arachnophobia geological? Like are poeple who devloped along the murder spiders more prone to being scared of them? SCARRED THEIR DNA etc?
>>750664282Wasps are worse worse because they can fly and are actively aggressive instead of trying to run away and hide from you.
>>750666406yeah? every woman is an attention whore
>>750664282It's an example of how pop culture influences the mentally weak. The movie *Aracnophobia* made this word commonplace in the minds of the masses, and suddenly a lot of people started claiming to have the "condition." Note that no one asks for snake filters, even though snakes elicit a visceral reaction in humans that is just as strong, or even stronger, than that caused by spiders.Another thing is that, as one Anon once said, if it's okay to have an arachnophobia filter to remove spiders, then I want a homophobia filter to remove the faggots from games, too
>>750666750we've known si nce before the movie came out that actual arachnophobia can be heightened in people by witnessing other people's fear of spiders. So the movie could have been a hilarious memetic super spreader of itI liked 8 legged freaks more, but I'm biased because I love giant monsters
>>750666750this. where's my 'black people filter'?
>>750667250Seeing my mother freak out whenever there was a spider in the house definitely influenced me as a child to be afraid of them too.
>>750664282No truly deadly spiders or scorpions in my country. Suck it, foreigners.
>>750667704yeah instead you have brownies and pedros with guns all over the place
>>750664282Idk but I was surprised to see that game devs started putting arachnophobia filters in games, like when did people become so pussified and mentally stunted that video game spiders make them quiver in fear
>>750668094Yeah they don't have those in countries foreign to America you brown retard
>>750668094I live in what's called a good neighborhood. The cops here will run their sirens to roust homeless people.
>>750666303someone learned the hard way that these polite little fellas can jump
>>750666750>snakes elicit a visceral reaction in humans that is just as strong, or even stronger, than that caused by spidersThis is also because of the same sort of social engineering. The whole 'snek' shit and cute-ifying snakes that started on tumblr spread to the rest of the normalfag internet like over a decade ago. Now obviously this doesn't make people comfortable with snakes in real life but when you get 10 years of picrel tier images spread across the internet then people don't find virtual snakes scary like they do with spiders.
>>750668154we always were scared of them, we just didn't get the chance to voice it until recently. also why do you get if it's just filters? don't enable it.
>>750668291>why do you care
>>750668291>We were always scared of video game spidersKek
>>750668290so if you made a spidersnake, would it be normal again
>>750664282because of a little game called Dark Messiah
>>750668290Didn't "snek" start because of some dumb Indian?
>>750668547Hell if I know, pretty sure it started on tumblr somewhere between 2011-2013 when infantile speech/typing mannerisms became more common on the internet but I could be wrong.
>>750668418i'll enable my filter and there is nothing you can do about it
I was eight years old and the bees in Donkey Kong Country terrified me.Then I saw DKC2 had a whole world of just bees I refused to play it until nearly 6 years later.Spiders do nothing mostly because they don't fly. Flying insects are much worse than ones that do not fly.
Most fictional spiders aren’t even really spiders, just giant evil spider-shaped monsters that aren’t designed with realism in mind even ignoring their size. Shelob had a fucking mouth. Of course giant monsters that want to kill you are scary.I don’t give a fuck about real spiders and will leave them alone when I see one in the house since they’ll eat other bugs, but big monsters are scary.
>>750669152You don't know what fear of bees is.
>>750666303They are cute and the green metallic fangs look awesome. But they can and do bite people, and it's fairly painful, so I can't blame them.
>>750667704Black Widows and Brown Recluse have entered the chat. Despite what spider apologists want you to believe, their bites can kill you easily
>>750669478There have been no reported deaths from black widows since 1983 (when they started tracking it), and none from brown recluses.
>>750668290Actually the multiple nostrils is very disgusting
>>750669698probably due to prevalence of anti venom. IIRC the sydney funnel web (middle in OP's image) is a top 3 venomous spider in the world but there are few deaths because they reside largely in sydney and there is anti-venom everywhere
>>750669478I know someone who got bit by their eye by a brown recluse and it melted the skin. They had a crazy looking scar for like 15 years but its faded now and just looks like a weird white spot on their face.
>>750666081i have many orb weavers in my neighborhood. they are quite cute. I felt bad when there was a big storm and the orb weaver that was living on my porch got blown away..
Spiders are cool and world class at bug/insect controlPeople will complain about cockroaches flies, and whatever else while making sure to kill every spider they see and wonder why
>>750668290this is the internet. we love all animals here except shitbulls, mosquitos and ticks.
>>750670428and wasps
>>750670197They're just not "deadly." They pose a risk to people that are immunocompromised, but you can survive bites from either without medical treatment. Compare it to a water moccasin in the same woods that will likely kill you without antivenin.
>>750670464Wasps got a lot of junk in the trunk, doe.
>>750666663As an Australian, i am not really scared of spiders, just wary. It has been over 40 years since the last reported/known death by a spider bite here.Honestly, huntsman spiders are far more dangerous as they can squish themselves into really tight spaces, and there have been quite a few incidents where a huntsman crawls out of a space inside a car thus startling them or worse, you put the sun visor down and one falls on you.
>>750670650>It has been over 40 years since the last reported/known death by a spider bite here.The spiders have just become better at hiding the bodies or making it look like an accident.
>>750668154It's more that devs were afraid of losing sales and arachnophobia mode was an easy add.
>graphic violence>blood and gore>dismemberment and decapitation>thank you sir may i have another>one of these lil niggas>STOP MY HECKIN PHOBIA!!!1devs who cater to these faggots deserve the same fate as bioware
>>750670650yea I've seen enough funny horrorfying videos of clusters of huntsmen. lanky-ass slenderman lookin fucks that are fucking massive.
>>750670741Literally what the huntsman does and it sounds like such a ridiculous excuse when you try and use it as to why you crashed
>>750670885I can understand the fear of tiny spiders you'll never see that are venomous, since they can actually fuck you up in a meaningful way. But these massive spiders, they can't realistically do much to you if they wanted to, and biologically they'll want to stay away from us as much as possible. What is it in these people's brains that makes them mortified of spiders but not dogs, cats, horses, etc which are commonplace and can fuck you up way more.
>Haha noooo Brazilian Wandering Spider please don't bite me haha noooo
>>750671196Big spiders are more in detail. When I see a daddy longlegs or a jumping spider, it's abstract. Seeing this shit in detail is enough to make you pull up stakes and move.
>>750671202see, the other parts of the venom also turn on all the pain parts of your dick too, I wish I was joke
>>750671312It really is very alien when you look at spiders or any insect up close like that, invertebrates are such a wildly different layout lol
>>750664282>Australian Funnel SpiderAnd where is the Newcastle Big Boy?
>>750671202>>750671314This is the same spider venom that The Fear used on Big Boss. Even after treating the venom there's probably a decent chance that that Jack spent the rest of MGS3 with a painful erection, whether Eva was present or not.
>>750671202Nigriventer:)
>>750666303you'd be surprised how frequently I get a "nope" when I ask people who bitch about spiders is jumpers are ok. I lose a ton of respect for those kinds of people
>>750664282If you are incapable of holding a house centipede or a wolf spider with your bare hand (outside of the concern for holding it) I cannot see you as a man
>>750671585Centipedes belong in vaginas.
>>750671312I just don't see in my brain how this is spooky
>>750667378Europe. Go back there.
I'm not really afraid of bugs but there's something about spiders that is uniquely unnatural
Not trying to be sexist, but I have a feeling it's only women and effeminate men requesting these spider-filters.
>>750671585I don't have a problem when they get on me, just need to go outside and guide them to a wall or tree. But what's the point of holding one?
>>750672012I mean, yea duh
>>750671387
I have tarantulas where I livethey are cool little guys I saw this one on a mountain
>>750664282residual failed genetics manifesting in excess males due to lack of predators for humans. different selecting factors are taking shape however, such as the failure to breed altogether, despite unnaturally long life and abundance of goods
>cures u r arachnophobia
there's a black widow the size of my index finger hiding in my bathroom and i dunno what to do
>>750672248yea exactly, its fucking sick
>>750666303Had one of these lil fellas trapped in my fridge earlier when I opened it up it sprang out and rappelled its way down the inside of the door. Had to nudge it down onto the floor so it wouldn't get squished when I closed the door again. I think it's a she? Whatever, it's okay with me as long as it keeps eating everything else. Dunno how the fuck it managed to climb inside the fridge, though. Usually it hangs out inside the window behind the blinds, crawling over my front door camera occasionally and spooking the shit outta me.
>>750666303They are so cool. They are unironically one of my favorite animal. I don't care if they are probably still super dumb, they will look at me and jump on my hand and then look up at me and that's pretty cool.
>>750664282I know, right? Why would anyone be afraid of this?
>>750672248The fuck is that, a mite?
>>750666303>>750668257>>750669426>>750671536I appreciate how jumping spiders "acknowledge your presence" by turning to look at you when you approach them. Most other spiders just remain uncannily still, making it impossible to tell if they are looking at you or not.
I'll take spiders over cockroaches. Although, a fear of spiders might do me some good. I have no problem sticking my hand near black widows and brown recluses to take pictures of them and I honestly have no idea if either of those can jump. I just know they'll fuck you up.
>>750672248
>>750672538Reminds me of Velma Green, the Spider Queen.
>>750672793That more drider, though.
what are spider gamers most afraid of?
>>750672843She can dride my fat cock.
>>750666449>>750666579the bite of a banana spider will give you a painful erection that will last hours and will literally make you impotent if it isn't treated immediately
>>750672363wrong pic
Just once I want to see a horror game with an arachnophobia mode that adds spiders
>>750673061I thought it had giant ants, not spiders
>>750666303i saw one of these for the first time (didnt know we had them where i live)it turned around and looked at me and that made me feel extremely uncomfortable
>>750666750Gonzo oversimplification. Noone ever needed a movie to fear spiders. Fuck, black widows were horror in pop culture long before that movie even existed, to the point of "black widow" being appropriated as a term used for a specific kind of murderous woman, also long before the movie existed.The difference is the general pussification in western society, and the growing belief that your problems should be everyone else's problems.
i fucking hate spiders
>>750673054>Gives you a fat erection>Called the BANANA spiderDevs cooked
>>750667704you have the lonestar tick that makes you allergic to meat if it sucks your blood
>>750671202What they don't tell you, is that the boner can last a very long time (a lot longer than 4 hours) but after it ends you may never be able to get one again.
>>750673271I eat meat, so it hasn't bitten me.
>>750673226reisens tits arent that big
>>750672248he cute
>>750673271On the other hand, alpha gal is recoverable if you don't keep on getting bit by more ticks over and over.Weirdly enough, a particular form of acupuncture that's administered to the ear of all places, has been shown to greatly lessen the reaction, and in some cases, reduce it to unnoticible, in most people that undergo it.Death or pecker rot can't be cured by needles.
>>750669698Yeah instead you end up with massive debt and a mass of rotted skin.
>>750669698>>750670197>>750670483Don’t 9/10 people that aren’t immunocompromised just have a mild sore spot from a brown recluse? But if your body is weak you’re really fucked? I still wouldn’t be blindly shoving my hand in a dark closet but I don’t think they’re instant death.
>>750668290>posting your dick on a blue board
>>750673121it has both and morelike beesand dragons
>>750673632That's not true at all, but you're poor.>>750673734I got bit on the hand and it turned leathery with some cracking and bleeding, then went back to normal.>>750673803Here's mine.
>>750668154It's just women in HR departments running the company. Once you let a woman make decisions they focus on cunt shit like that.
>>750666129she left the spider there and brushed her hair and aplied some light make up before starting recording
>>750673121you thought wrong
Daily reminder that Cellar Spider, or Dandy Long Leg, is your friend. They kill and eat black widows and brown recluses. They're also great in roach control.
>>750673226this game is so fucking hot
>>750673734yea, the necrosis is not a sure thing with the bite and iirc is pretty rare, but... I still wouldn't want to get bit, at best its gonna fucking hurt, at worse your injury will be recorded for future generations to gawk at as a chunk of you literally dies and sloughs off lmao
>>750666628Not racist just didn't like 'em
>tfw thinking about getting a spider tattoo so I can scare people irl
>>750671869I'm not saying this shit is proof that there's no god, but if there is he's kind of an asshole.
>>750673884>>750674018Pretty sure you’ll be missing a crater of skin. Like a shallow ice cream scoop of wherever the little fucker bit you is just permanently gone.
>>750674181This happened 30-40 years ago. I'll be fine.
>>750672248if you told me that this was an alien from a movie i would believe you
Rampant benadryl abuse made me permanently afraid of spiders
>>750666750I'm really afraid of spiders, I can't open any of the images in this thread and stare for longer than a few seconds, my hands get sweaty and I feel really bad, the response is not something that can be controlled.But I still don't think you need filters, I just kind avoid staring at these enemies too closely or too long, the giant spiders in Skyrim were really hard for me to deal with.
>mfw the new Fire Emblem has an option to "mask" bug/insect enemiesImagine getting mentally cucked by virtual bugs, this has to be a scam by western medicine to sell solutions to imaginary problems.
>>750673962>b-but this bug kills other bugsAnything less than total bug death is unacceptable.
>spiders are not demons from the hell dimension trust me bro
>>750673903Classic, thanks for such post.
>>750674178Meant for >>750673903
>>750674310you knew what you were signing up for....
>>750671312I've come along way. In the past I used to greatly struggle with any instant, jumpscare image of a spider but after watching them for awhile on YouTube, I tried scrolling past this thread and that pic didn't bother me as much as it would have in the past.It helps when you think about how not only do a lot of people sincerely find them to be beautiful but I'd also feel sorry for it if it got hurt or killed by someone for no good reason.Still kind of creepy to look at though. I used to think wolf spiders were horrific because of the eyes and fangs but really it's their long legs. If the legs were shorter, it would practically look like a real-life cartoon character.

>>750666247Now I want to write a Halloween story of a little witch spider with her adorable tiny toad familiar.
>>750664282The Australian funnel web venom is funny. There were no known primapes to ever be in Australia, yet the funnel web spider developed extremely lethal venom towards primapes. Want to know why? By complete accident/coincidence. Seriously it was just pure coincidence. I love spiders I own 20 tarantulas. I plan on getting at least a few tarantula tattoos soon
>>750669478>their bites can kill you easilyIf you're 90 years old or have a heart condition MAYBE. I've been bitten plenty of time by black widows and it just makes a painful welt.
>>750674310ever tried talking to the hat man?
>>750674593Do you also like the song Tarantula by Pendulum?
>>750669478Live in KY.Remember my dads old garage he never cleaned out was absolutely full of fucking widows. Its was like a goddamn community of em. Walk in on a given day and spot at least a dozen of them.Never bit nor bothered anyone. Was kinda freaky if you had to get something out of the garage and one of the little shits would almost always be hanging out next the the light switch.Still never bite anyone
>>750673903I wonder if a lot of people opened up their Wii consoles to make sure there weren't any spiders inside...
>>750670650Someone animate this so after 3 or 4 seconds the huntsman jumps at ya
Not my problem
>>750674593>There were no known primapes to ever be in Australia, yet the funnel web spider developed extremely lethal venom towards primapes. Want to know why? By complete accident/coincidence.My sentiment remains unchanged from >>750674178

Why did I click this thread
>>750675085Anything they can catch. They're not very mobile they're not hunting for food they usually keep in their burrows (except for males)This list is primarily roaches and any other bugs, not including beetles usually (most tarantulas don't bother eating beetles), worms crickets whatever. The occasional soft small lizard that might find their way into burrows. They don't hunt birds despite the name. But they'd be capable of it and probably have killed birds before. There were old drawings from explorers in the 1600s (it might have been in the 1800s) of an Avicularia (pink toe) catching a bird in like north east south America or one of the islands.

>>750673962This is Carlos; he's the Harvestmen spider that lives in my bathroom.In return for feeding him granola bars, he doesn't eat me when I take a shower.
>>750675406It's hard to tell because of the lightning but that's likely a grammastola pulchra, generally considered like a top 3 most docile tarantula on average, not that I'm pro handling but even should that tarantula bite them the only issue they'd have is mechanical damage from the fangs themselves, the venom would just be very basic and tame as far as tarantula venom goes, concentrated irritation and maybe mild fatigue at worst. Even then a spider like that is more likely to kick their urticating hairs before biting. Tarantulas aren't bite first creatures at ALL. 99% of the time they will run first or kick hairs. You have to be constantly provoking them or surprise them. If you handle a spider you have to sort of gauge their current temperment, poke them with a paint brush first
>>750675791
>>750673373What the fuck kind of retarded name is Reisen? Sounds German
>>750675791>It's hard to tell because of the lightning but that's likely a grammastola pulchraYeah, sure bro. That was the problem here.
>>750675554These guys are so cute.Crazy that they can recognize people to some extent.
>>750675791>You have to be constantly provoking them or surprise them. pic unrelated
>>750675961Yeah, even most dogs and cats and shit can't do this.
>>750671196>What is it in these people's brains that makes them mortified of spiders but not dogs, cats, horses, etc which are commonplace and can fuck you up way more.The actual answer is just tribal evolution. Most domesticated animals, as much as we like to think that "we controlled and evolved THEM", in reality evolved ALONGSIDE of us. Dogs especially have evolved faces that resemble and trigger the same pheromones in us that we get dumped into our brain when we look at a human baby. This is also why the Chinese are so inhuman for eating them. They're basically eating babies.On the other hand, similar to how cats get massively scared of cucumbers, humans get scared naturally of any shapes that tend to have poison, like long scaley noodles or two small round orbs with 8 legs. The humans that were less afraid of them (before we unlocked antivenom tech) just simply died more often.
>mfw i remember that day, two years ago, when i accidentally vaccuum'd a spiderbro who was living in the corner of my bedroom

>>750675961Not only that but they can actually dream!! They don't have brains in the human sense but they have a lot more neurons than the average spider in their brain.
Hello I am spider
>>750676323Can't believe this made me chuckle
>>750676772What class are you?
>>750675554can you actually have them as pets? i would be afraid i would squish it>>750676109why are they so damn cute
I am terrified of spiders, what should I do if I ever find a small one somewhere in my way?What should I do if I ever find a big one somewhere in my way?
>>750669369I played this on midway arcade origins, even with hundreds of quarters is probably couldn’t trudge through this.
>>750677006Yes, actually. Jumping spiders (and wolf spiders) are super social in the wild with one another, so they are entirely capable of bonding with a person.They can remember you if you're good to them, even more so than a normal pet since they're full capable of recognizing a human being, rather than just vague shapes and smells and shit like dogs or monkeys.

>>750677516Fucker has a Mayan glyph on its ass
>>750677516Neat.Oreo ass.
I have a rule. Any spider who stays in common areas gets to live. I had a window spider that I'd greet and wave at in the mornings. It even waved back once or twice.All pervert spiders must die. If they pop up in either my room or the restroom, they get smashed. You don't get to live here rent free AND look at me naked you sex pests.
>>750677417It's a trapdoor spider. It uses the plug to block its burrow. I guess its hard and spiny.
>>750677634Spiders won't rape you, unlike moths.
>>750674402mmm delicious Oreo :)
>>750668290Rubbish, I thought snakes were cute ever since I first saw them at a zoo.
>>750668524They went a little overboard with the spiders and spider dens in that game.
big tarantulas and fuzzy looking spiders are perfectly fine imo, they mostly mode slow. its the larger, pointy/uglier spindly leg ones that move faster than fucking light that are the problem, fuck those spiders
Its the way real life spiders move. Its unpredictable. Vidya spiders are robotic
>>750677969Spiders are just like vampires when you think about it. Afraid of light, feeds by draining liquid with fangs, etc.
>>750677713What
>>750664282Fuck wandering spiders, these assholes are literally aggressive as fuck, they will come for you and fight you. We have plenty of them here and finding them is always a nightmare. They specially love to hide inside cloth that is inside a cardboard box, so it's better to just fucking burn your old clothes than to try your luck donating them with these bastards around.
>>750677873Most of them at least will run from you. The funnel web spider from OP is notorious for attacking humans on sight. It's like the polar bear of spiders.
>>750678183You can't seal up your house to avoid them, either. It's too hot in Brazil.
but who gave them that power, why do they need to kill 1000 people
>>750674018Out of the 5 people I know of that have been bitten by a brown recluse, all of them ended up in the hospital and had to be treated for necrosis. One of them was as recently as last year.
>>750678126Don't "What" mean, man. This actually happened.To me.This story is real.
>>750678183>A Brazilian spider delivers more than a painful bite that sends most victims to the hospital. Its venom stimulates an hours-long erection.sounds like a spider that can save marriages
Meanwhile I just have the normal tiny spiders which chill in the dark corner of your room and you only ever see them when they randomly run across your desk or fall on you one day
>>750673226This fag needs to finish his damn game already so I can start seeing non-futa stuff again.
>>750670775I demand an Arachnophilia mode.
>>750678254I create a bio-barrier with Suspend SC (K-Othrine) spray, but a lot of them still manage to get through. If I don't apply the spray I get way too many gigantic wolf spiders inside the fucking house. Even the wall crab spiders start getting way too big.
>>750670775There should be an arachnophobia mode that adds in spiders. Just a toggle with no description other than that. And when it's found out, the dev response should be 'Yeah? It's a horror game. You play it to be horrified.'
>>750666303I was bitten by one while I was driving. I had my elbow hanging out the window, and started feeling a little itchy/warm sensation, and looked down to see one of those little bastards munching on my elbow. It wasn't painful to my recollection, just enough of a sensation that I noticed that something was off.
>>750666129Man imagine having to eat 5-10 of those a year in your sleep. I'd be full after one of her honestly.
>>750664282I have a pathological fear of spiders because as a kid this massive black widow made a web in our backyard and we had to move out temporarily and call the exterminator. I had nightmares and stress dreams involving spiders and black widows attached to my body all the way through college. To this day even pictures of spiders scare me, but especially black widows. Just picking out a stock image for this post was unsettling. And I think the fear is warranted, if one of these fuckers bites you you're dead within hours unless you get medical attention (if you're a kid, which I was at the time, if you're an adult it takes longer and you have a better chance at survival but it's still very much lethal)
>>750678518Except it's a very painful erection and can also leave you impotent FOR LIFE
>>750679696>we had to move outSorry bro, your family was a bunch of pussies. We had a black widow living by our water softener and my dad just showed it to me and told me not to bother it.
>>750679696Bullshit. They don't make webs like that.
>>750670852That's exactly what I did, but for a completely fucking harmless house spider. crawled out from behind my rearview mirror and jumped on my fucking face and I went into the back of a parked car, broke three ribs (didn't realise for a while due to the adrenaline) and coke-canned my fucking shitty first car. The funny thing was everyone involved pretty much went "yeah you know what you're fucking stupid but I believe it" The guy whose car I hit was fucking livid until I explained, said "No I know it's my fault it'll be on my insurance" (which no shit it would be he was parked) and the police didn't even caution me after alc-testing me. I thought I was hyper fucked because I hit a parked car but nope, nothing.My insurance went to the fucking moon though for a year. I'm pretty sure spiders work for big insure now.
>>750664282>>750666129thank fuck funnel webs can't climb
>>750677516butterflies have patterns on their wings, why spiders can't have patterns on their ass?
>>750666247Begs the question as to how this symbiotic relationship came to be, from what i understand spiders that aren't jumping spiders can't see shit and their eyes work more like on/off switches that alert them to approaching predators or moving prey rather than creating an image their puny brains can analyze.
>>750677585This fella looks like a wise sage who's gonna give you some long-winded exposition/explanation and then ask if you want him to repeat that (defaults to Yes)

>>750680340Usually it's when you leave the window open a crack.
>>750672710I actually found one in my father's car a few weeks ago and brought it to my bedroom.

>>750680457Still that doesn't answer how the spiders learned that the particular movement of the frogs was to be allowed when anything entering a spider's detection web activates their instinct to turn whatever stepped on it into lunch, and replicated it long enough to be coded in their genes.

>>750681345That's funny, because when I saw them in Elden Ring, Big City Nights started playing in my head manually.
I used to really like spiders when I was a child. All of that changed when I went to put on a shoe one day and there was a spider in it. I then had "arachnophobia" for a few years but then as a teen I got over it and stopped being a pussy. Spiders are pretty cool. They can still be pretty creepy though. It's mainly the way they move I think.

>>750681726During the Brazilian summers it was literally impossible to avoid snakes, at home, in the road, everywhere.I swear sometimes I went for a hike or walk and almost 5 meters there was at least one.I don't think I have pictures of it saved since I was in a panic and power was out, so I couldn't charge my phone, but there was a gigantic rattlesnake hiding behind the sofa in shack I was living in.

>>750680105>>750680208I looked into this for a couple seconds because I was also curious how very very dumb animals form such relationships. Whether true or not, it boils down to that they've probably been doing it for a LONG time, maybe dozens of millennia if not hundreds and basically while their brains are terrible their habit to form this symbiotic relationship is just a logic gateway their brain does. Little frog underneath it? Don't trigger aggression. A fish is cleaning a shark or crocodile? The brain just stopped firing a combat signal a long time ago specifically for the sensations and shapes and colors the symbiote embodies because the ones that didn't didn't die of teeth rot. That's just what I got from rudimentary research.
>>750681070it's like anything else in evolution, the trait of ignoring the frog appeared randomly and because the other spiders's eggs got eaten it gradually became more prolific
>>750683046I've seen one eating a kid once......wished I could forget about it.......
>>750683079What are they watching?
>>750683154Did you not try to help the kid?
>>750664282Spiders freak the hell out of me irl but in video games where developers scale them up to the size of cows it's just dumb it's not like their scariness is proportionate to their size they're scary cause they're small enough to hide in crevices ready to leap at you when you aren't expecting it.
>>750683079the principal at my elementary school had one of these guys, she'd take him out sometimes during recess and let us all hold him so long as we behaved
>>750677516>>750680104>>750680381From rudimentary research it's because bugs have brains the size of pencil lead so the shape of the spider ass helps other spiders to understand it's looking at something it wants to mate with and not attack. There's maybe an esoteric conversation how the spider brain is looking for geometric patterns, like what humans see in drug trips talking about the geometric basis of reality/atoms. There's also an esoteric conversation how the mantis shrimp can see like 1000 colors and it's very aggressive like it's a malevolent spirit trapped in a matrix. Color out of space.
>>750673962I think it's funny that this completely harmless and inconspicuous little fucker specifically loves eating dangerous spiders.
>>750679595

>>750674590That's a wonderful idea. Too bad I'm going to have my ai friend beat you to the punch!
Huntsman body those comfortably.
When I was outside I got bit by some spider. I slept it off for a week before the wound got infected. Slept that off for 2 weeks before I had to go into surgery because I couldn’t put pressure in my foot.
>>750683291It was too late, brown whore that lived near where I was working let her kids run around in the forest and rivers with no supervision. Me and my colleagues heard screaming, went to see what it was, only to run into a fucking gigantic anaconda dragging the completely broken body of a boy into the river and slowly disappearing back into the water.
>>750683365That's one of the reasons I got a lizard. Kids always love to see her and pet her, it's great to make a child happy like that.One time I was on a walk with her on my shoulder and a car drove by, stopped, and backed up and the mother driving it asked if her kids could say hello. It was great.

>>750684778Some of them will even just sneak up and slam the net on a bug.
>>750679382I've been bitten by a jumping spider and even a cicada as a kid. I would pick up just about any bug I knew wasn't dangerous.As for the jumping spider I remember it felt like a very weak pinprick and it was itchy for about 10 minutes afterwards.
>>750684906
>>750684948
>>750684921It's rare to get bitten by a cicada, most of them won't even do defensive bites. Usually it's from the little retards thinking you're some kind of weird stinky tree (which they feed on.)

>>750686126Most vertebrates.
>>750686126Yeah pretty much.Not really sure why, best theory is that we all had a common ancestor that did it.
I'm much softer on spiders when I put them into perspective. Spiders kill the worst kinds of bugs imaginable when it comes to diseases etc. (flies) - and they don't just kill them, they kill them in the most horrific way possible. Wrapping them up in webs, keeping them paralyzed and cocooned, slowly digesting their insides into liquid mush while they're still alive.Flies deserve the most brutal deaths imaginable, and spiders give it to them.

Arachnophobia is such a low IQ normie fear. They are literally harmless (besides brown recluses and black widows). Just ignore them and they'll ignore you. Now, yellowjackets, those will actively go out of their way to attack you for no reason. But spiders are virtually harmless, and if you've ever been bit by a spider before it's your fault
>>750670483Cottonmouths aren't deadly either. You really should have used a rattlesnake as an example instead
>>750686560My niece done got bit by a copperhead
>>750685714Wolf spiders have probably the second best vision among spiders after jumping spiders, competing only with other spiders with specialized eyes like the ogre-faced spiders. So they're also very likely to be able to recognize a human vs. a large predator that eats spiders or something they could eat, and so are less likely to be needlessly aggressive.
>>750685667Notice how this asshole's fangs are buried in that guy's skin even in the example photo.

>>750674553EDF doesn't have frogs, dumbass.
>>750686436>>750686767The funny part is that the vast majority of parasitoid wasps are completely harmless and are beneficial to humans. Of the ones that aren't completely harmless, most of these are relatively large dirt daubers and shit who have extremely weak venom and aren't very aggressive for a wasp of their size. And then there are tarantula hawks.
>"Onii-chan! You forgot your bento again!"
>>750686560Cottonmouths are aggressive and chase people, rattlesnakes are very reluctant to do so and intentionally alert you to go away. Their risk is similar to the risk of spiders, when one is hiding and gets crushed by a human by accident.
>>750671202Wonder if you could create a powerful bioweapon from their venom, especially if you combined it with some sort of powerful aphrodisiac. Imagine dispersing it throughout a hostile bunker and five seconds later everyone is screaming in agony while furiously jacking off and crying out that their dicks are on fire

>>750687482God I wish.I have an ant problem and I could really use an army of spiders.
>>750673226Please anyone sauceee
>>750687360Some scorpions are capable of parthenogensis, though I haven't seen any reports of emperor scorpions doing so. It's not impossible, but it's also possible you didn't have an emperor scorpion. The pet trade is infamous about misidentification, and local names can differ regionally.
I kill any spiders I see in my house, no exceptions. It's not that they aren't welcome, so much that they are genetic dead ends. A good spider is one that is never seen, so if I see one, that means that they have fundamentally failed in their existence as a sneaky ambush predator.

>>750683464I used to see mantises outside my apartment all the time in Kanagawa. Occassionally we'd get something cool like a rhinoceros beetle but mostly we'd get those fucking cicadas throughout the summer, they're really annoying and deafeningly noisey. And on one occasion I found a Japanese huntsmen on the wall of the staircase. Nowhere near as big as their Australian cousins but not something you want near you at any rate.
>>750686325>sharksSharks account for very few human deaths and only four or so species out of thousands are reliably liable to attack humans in the first place.
>>750690665
>>750690337I walked into that but the spider did startle me because I didn't notice it until someone mentioned to move my arm because it was on a fence post I was leaning on.
>>750668290I think this place is full of performative liars and/or pussies. The shape of a snake is not creepy. A snake in the wild is not frightening unless it is a venemous one you encounter on accident.The shape of a spider is slightly creepy due to their unnatural movement and general “gangliness” with a few exceptions, but also not something to be scared of unless you are a woman. I own a snake and regularly handle spiders that wander into my house unless they are too fast to hold (some species of ground dwellers or grass spiders) or might have mild toxicity (yellow sac, brown recluse)
>>750690893Athropod morphology is weird and uncanny from a vertibrate perspective. That said most people aren't as creeped out by crabs or lobsters.
>>750690893To be clear some spiders would freak me out if I saw them, like huntsman spiders even though they are harmless, but performatively saying “kill it with fire” for jumping spiders is very gay
>>750690953Eh some people don’t like to look at the details of those crustaceans close up even though they would happily eat them

Postan mantis in your spider thread.
>>750690893>t also not something to be scared of unless you are a woman.In my country all the spiders I've seen were really small web producing ones. I am a bit ashamed that I might actually act like a scared woman if I ever got startled by a big one like the ones posted itt.
>>750686325ok, but bees are cute and fuzzy unlike 99% of bugs and insectsman, I fucking hate some of them disgust meit's not even being scared, they just trigger some visceral emotion in me
>>750691774Bees are actually such good boys they like being pet. They'll start dancing and licking you.

>>750664282They never learned to throw a knife. They spray spiders because it's easy, but then become fearful as the spider dashes away and they have no idea where it will next show up. Either capture a spider in a plastic container, or learn to throw a knife (assuming you have easily repaired internal plaster walls). Spiders are basically just conditioned fear of the unknown, and gamers often tend to be faggots who are afraid of anything they can't control (such as conversations with women). Just knife or catch the fucking thing instead of spraying it and finding its corpse in your bed later. Punch it or step on it. The only reason anyone has arachnophobia is because they are avoiding conflict with their pussy little Mortein spray and then fearing the spider ambushing them (which will never happen). I sound insane but huntsmans are fucking quick and plastic containers aren't always an option. Braining a huntsman with the hilt of a knife is actually more reliable than containers even if you aren't practiced with knife throwing distances yet.But, if you keep your boots outside and you live in Australia absolutely blast your boots with Mortein. I'm not saying you shouldn't kill spiders in advance, I'm just explaining why faggots are afraid of them.
>>750678273PLAY A RECORD
>>750666129okay, I live in a northern country so spiders this size don't exist around here.How do southerners deal with literal monsters like this? a simple fly swatter aint cutting it and I don't think a boot is going to quite be enough.How do you dispatch of bullshit this big?On top of that, how do you fucking clean the mess? a small spider like the ones i usually deal with go splat and there's a bit of guts and its just awful, but something like that... I dread what I would see after crushing something this big.
>>750692321I just hit them with my flip flops.The bigger ones my dad would pour querosene or ethyl then set them on fire. That prevents urticating hairs from doing anything.
>>750692367The text is in Portuguese so the lives in Brazil like me.Spiders huge like that are most likely the local offshoot of tarantulas. Not only are they harmless when it comes to poison, they are also somewhat docile. Their sting hurts a lot.The easiest way to dispatch them is simply open your door/window and gently set them free using a broom or a housecleaning shovel.They're even sluggish, they won't activate their turbo autist mode unless you really fuck with them.t. grew up traveling to my granma's old farm so had to deal with critters regularly without resorting to murdering everything
>>750673226name?
there are no monstrous or poisonous spiders in my country so when I see one in my house I get a piece of paper, allow it to climb on it and take it outside to the garden where there are plenty of these little annoying flies
>>750670650This.The absolute most dangerous spiders when it comes to living a daily life are the giga small ones who can get inside your clothing and shoes and bite you as a defense mechanism after being squished.I just shake stuff before wearing them and even them I don't remember the last time there was a spider in them.
>>750692321throwing knifes? that's your big idea?Okay, if this was you finding one such spider innawoods with no one around that could potentially get hurt or call the cops because Karen McKnickersinaknot is having her usual tantrum for the 40th time that month, that's no awful advice.but in an appartment building or a household? you're clearly incappable of processing second order and third order effects that comes from chucking knives around.but to you point, I think you might be on to something.A thrown object is potentially a good idea.Weighted sandbags with ball bearings would probably be a good and ideal projectile.its a soft, blunt object that, with enough mass and kinetic energy behing, could blow a spider that size right the fuck out. humans literally conquered and won the evolutionary arms race through learning how to throw stuff. it makes complete sense.
>>750664282Arachnophobia is a primordial fear. No different from the fear of the dark. It has been proven time and again that spiders illicit fear responses in babies and children to a far higher degree than other test items/animals.The fear of the dark can be beaten out of you through modern conveniences. Your ancestors were terrified of it, even with flame torches and such. Travelling at night was considered suicide.
>>750692367Catch them in a bucket and throw them into the neighbor's yard duh>>750692321>kill spiders with throwing knivesThe fuck is wrong with you? just throw a shoe nigga
Since its spookyween imagine running into this at night
>>750692759The only animals that aren't naturally afraid of spiders are animals that can prey upon spiders.
>>750670464>>750670530wasps are easily one-shot by their instinctual fear of Dragonflies.literally put up dragonfly-shaped objects that are bigger than your local variety of wasps and enjoy never having to deal with their bullshit ever again.SwarmTheory actually made a video on this subject matter, thus where I take the info on that.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rCUogZuR_7I
>>750692813been there, done that when i was kid in boy scouts. horrifying experience.happened innawoods at night. never again holy fuck.

>top aussie pranks
>>750692959>what time is it?>time to be scared!
I have a confession, bros. 10-15 years ago I had this little simple picture frame with some Japanese or Chinese word for "peace" on it. A little spider was on the edge of it. I took a picture of it, but ended up killing him.I've regretted ever since. Gotta find that photo some time.
>>750685074>does LITERALLY nothing>will never love you or acknowledge you because it's brain literally isn't wired to do that no matter how many copers who want it to just be a scaly dog will say>mostly owned by freaks who get off live feeding themEhh
>>750693157But enough about women.
>>750693157You’re right above the love part, they can become more tolerant but will never love you like a mammal. Getting off on feeding them is just some weird projection though. Can you even imagine the possibility of people who likes animals and don’t have weird sex stuff attached to that or have you just been raped by the internet
>>750692790I just like knife throwing okay, but yeah you and >>750692712 are right. A beanbag or any other wide blunt instrument is a better idea (less fun though).
>Be afraid of spiders to a debilitating degree (like pictures of them in a book would fuck me up) >Get really into monster girls>Specifically spider girls really interested me for some reason>Get really into learning spiders for a bit>Learn to appreciate spiders and become less afraid of themThank you spider women!

>>750689485Great, now someone is going to make that, provided it doesn't already exist.
>>750680494>>750680524Theg don't make webs for food but then make little hammocks to go and sleep in. I have three of them and they all do this.
>>750666129very cute, would breedthe girl is nice too I guess
>>750666303she's.. kinda hot, look at her eyelashes, all feminine and stuff haha
>>750690294It doesn't even fuckin look like you speak English m8. Jesus christ
>>750692925I think I would've been paralyzed by fear.
>>750679929>it's ogre... billions must crawl
>>750664282I started playing huntsman and I want to fuck the spiders.
>>750664282In my original universe spiders had 8 legs instead of 10
>>750679929he looks like he would say>welcome, I will proceed to consume you now
>>750664282I flail around like retard whenever I feel something tickle because I think it's a spider. Yet, I also happily chase after vipers to try and pick them up. My granddad will just grab spiders and lob them outside, yet has a freak out over the mere idea of snakes existing.
>>750692790>just throw a shoe niggaSo a spider can catch an wear it? No way
>>750670349I don't want either in my house, how about that?
>>750694675So it's better to give him a knife instead?
>>750675085it's in the name retard, they eat goliaths
>>750694578The spider movement in that game freaks me out, so good job, devs.
>>750690313Wasn't a black widow, but some kind of spider touched the base of my dick once (probably a hobo spider)>laying in bed fapping using a sock that had been stuffed towards the back of my sock drawer>look down as I'm about to cum>there's a fucking spider on the base of my dick, head and front legs resting on my cock>can't even muster a scream, just let out a low pitiful moaning "Noooo" at the idea that a spider might just bite my dick and flail my hand at it, swiping it off and accidentally slapping my dick in the process>roll out of bed, falling painfully to the ground in the process while brushing myself all over>later while reflecting on it think that it was most likely a female spider>hit by the realization that if it was that it was the first time a female had ever touched my dick>the first female who touched my dick wasn't even human and I had panicked and swatted her away while wailing pitifully
>>750694719Well, yeah. Spiders have 8 legs, but no hands. They can't hold a knife, but they can wear as many as 4 pairs of shoes.
>>750686974he's... he's just like me
