I don’t mind spiders, most of them are good guys and they take care of the other pests. This is the season for orb weavers in these parts.

These days they’re bigass big, and they often choose the wrong spots for their orbs, like right across the path to the front door. Walking through a spider web doesn’t bother me much, but the reactions of orb weaver spiders creep me right out. When you tear their web, they drop.

They drop, and they land on whatever happens to be directly below them, like YOUR BACK. And once the spider drops, we know that the little bastard climbs back up to hide in your hair, and we’re forced to do the OMGGTFO Dance.

Spiders don’t want to eat us, even if they’ve got a span of 6 feet or so (like that one above). So here’s to 6-foot-diameter spiders, just to creep you out on
