The Sad World Of The Misunderstood House Spider

If there’s one arthropod with an unfortunately bad rap in the human world, it’s the common house spider. Generally reclusive and non-threatening to people, spiders eat all the creatures that annoy humans (mosquitoes, flies, and roaches) while occupying the empty crevices of human shelter. And yet their very presence makes the average person go after these benevolent creatures with a fury. And so we present the sad world of the Misunderstood House Spider:

    This is why i let spiders out of the house

  • Gdfgdfgdf

    I’d rather have mosquitoes and any horrible disease they carry than one spider anywhere ever.

    • haters gon’ hate

      that’s women’s logic if I ever heard it

      • redjujube

        nope, women don’t have logic, just feelings

        • Allohalloh

          If that were true wouldn’t she be “feeling bad” for the spider in response to these images?

          • redjujube

            You’re implying women are always empathetic.  And you seem to want me to explain this woman’s feelings.  I can’t. Nobody can, not even women.  Look at what she said… she would rather have malaria and other diseases than have a spider, most of which are harmless, in her presence.  Typical irrational woman.

            Now I do admit I am an a$$hole but at least I’m rational. And if women would make at least some effort to be rational I would try to be less of an a$$hole.

          • Lordvarreus

            Sorry but thats not a womans state of mind, thats anyone who has any sort of mild to severe arachnaphobia. Which I as a man have *getting over it sorta still dont like em at all*, I dont mind spiders hell most of the small ones can go fuck themselves, their in a corner somewhere. Anything larger then a dime I squash…period. And if THE GIRL IM LIVING WITH has more fear of spiders then I do, and wants them dead.  Who am I gonna serve, Woman who I live with and like etc etc. Or spider I barely tolerate….. Im going with woman. Now the women hating spiders is a sterotype. I know a TON of women who say go meh, who the fuck cares vs men LIKE ME who go….Im gettin a shoe.

          • Pacsr0mana

            ^ that person, despite everything they said, is a woman

          • http://www.danaseilhan.com Dana Seilhan

            That person is getting laid.  That’s all that matters.

          • redjujube

            That’s an irrational statement.  She says she lives with a woman she likes, doesn’t mean she’s getting laid.  Even if she is getting laid, that’s not all that matters.  Overcoming woman-like irrational fears also matters.

          • http://www.facebook.com/wolc.lupin Wolc Lupin

            doesn’t matter. I get laid but my house spiders are my personal pets and no one can lay a paper on them

          • redjujube

            yep, a woman

          • Wandsnroses

            i thought we were talking about spiders, not irrational women and men who are assholes?

          • colabea

            fear of creepy crawly things is probably a beneficial trait. primitive humans who used to go around ignoring nearby critters probably were way more likely to be injured, disfigured or killed than those who kept their distance. no one wants to reproduce with a dude who’s covered in swollen spider bites or, you know, dead. so his fear is arguably just a product of natural selection. as a woman who’s cool with spiders, I think you, despite everything you might say, are stupid.

          • http://www.danaseilhan.com Dana Seilhan

            I’m perfectly rational.  I don’t date assholes.

          • redjujube

            I don’t want to date you so what’s yer point?  That you’re god’s gift to men?  Typical irrational woman. 

          • platty4891

            the point was that she’s a woman and she’s rational. you made an assertion – she gave an example to demonstrate that you’re wrong. the implied slight at you was just her being witty. it’s still sound logic. when you make generalizations based on what people have got in their pants they are nearly always a) stupid and b) IRRATIONAL. you missed her point or willfully ignored it. in fact, you used your “masculine” grasp of deductive reasoning to lead to an inference about her alleged conceit that actually has nothing to do with anything she said. there’s not even a little implication that she thinks she’s “god’s gift to men”.

            if you were trolling I wouldn’t waste time responding, but you sound like so many people I know that I wouldn’t be even a tiny bit shocked if you’re serious. so feel free to miss/gloss over/attempt to contradict me too. I wouldn’t want to dampen your smug sense of superiority.

          • reese

            holy moses that was beautiful. I quiver when I read things like that….You have a way with words. Unfortunately it was a complete waste and way over rejujus head. I’m sure you well aware of this though. Just had admire rant, nice work.

          • Sean Fournel Campbell

            You are a deity in disguise. Bravo, friend, bravo :’ D I shall call you Ogrenix,slayer of trolls and other fiendish brutes xDD

            Well-said + Well done~

          • redjujube

            She gave no such example.  She said she’s perfectly rational.  Rational people know they’re not perfectly rational.  She did not say the fact she doesn’t date assholes proves she is rational.  The two statements are just 2 disjoint statements.  The first proves she is not rational.  The second states a dating preference and that’s all.  There is no logic in what she said.

            Furthermore my statements are not based on what people have in their pants.  It’s all about what people have between their ears.  What women have between their ears is a brain that makes statements about how they feel rather than statements about facts and the relationships between facts that show cause-effect, for example. And my reasoning is not deductive, it’s inductive though I doubt you have any appreciation of the difference even a desire to know the difference.

            Finally, where did I say I am superior.  I merely contend that men are rational whereas women are not.  Women show superiority in some things but ration is not of of those things.  Men and women are therefore complementary but not equivalent. Both have strengths and weaknesses.

          • Pffft.

            If every woman you know is irrational and insane, dude, it’s time to MEET DIFFERENT WOMEN.

            I say this because you seem to live on an entirely different planet from me – on MY planet there are all kinds of calm, logical, rational chicks (and some dudes who are entirely too emotional, too).  

          • redjujube

            Those entirely too emotional dudes are actually women.  Anyway, I didn’t say women are insane because they’re irrational.  Besides, I like the way women are all emotional and irrational.  A man just has to push the right buttons, usually in a very irrational way,  and they’ll do ANYTHING for him.  Every man knows that, don’t they? I met a woman once who was a fair bit more rational than most women.  She was a terrible piece of ass and actually thought she didn’t have to do it if she didn’t want to.  She called that rational.  Sad.

          • Guest

            I hope you burn in hell, you girlfriend-raping piece of shit. I’d put a bullet between your eyes if I knew where to find you.

          • redjujube

            My address is 2616- 11th Avenue SE, Calgary, Alberta, Canada.  I don’t want you to bleed on my carpet so I’m going to kill you in my front yard when you come, if my dog doesn’t kill you first.  Please fall onto the grass, not the concrete walk, I don’t want to waste water hosing the blood off. I’ve never raped a woman in my life.  The way you let your emotions carry you away to the point that you just make things up suggests to me you must be a woman.

          • Guest

            Ah, Canada. Figures.

          • brap

            I came from Calgary. I will come visit you because you made me lol. Only don’t shoot me, I just want to share lols.

            Gorram SE, though. There’s nothing down there :/

          • Domi

             Erm, I just LOVE how you assume that they’re women because they show too much emotion for your liking. And by “do it” you mean “have sex” then she’s absolutely right. >>; Forgive me for saying, you sound like a prat.

          • Guest

            wow, could you sound any more like a rapist? gender has NO impact on how emotional someone is. That’s just what society (and assholes like you) want us to believe. 

          • Guest

            Considering that I’m a woman with a Bachelor’s Degree in Logic, I beg to differ on the point of women having nothing between their ears. There are women all over the world making rational decisions and saving people’s lives every day. I mean, seriously, are you kidding me? You’ve never once seen a rational woman? No women doctors? Lawyers? Congress people? What do you do for a living with all of your logic? Sit around on the internet all day making a sexist ass of yourself? Because that just makes you look like an idiot.

            Also, the idea that rational thinking and emotion exist in dichotomy is completely off-base, but I don’t expect someone who can’t even comprehend the idea of a rational woman to possibly comprehend that statement. Maybe if you thought as rationally as my female self does you wouldn’t even been in this stupid conversation…

          • redjujube

            Who said women have nothing between their ears?  Not me.  BA in logic?  So what?  Anybody can memorize a bunch of textbooks and regurgitate it on an exam if they work hard enough. And if you attend lectures and don’t fall asleep you can learn exactly how the prof wants it regurgitated.  I know because I am a Ph.D in Logic and my students do it all the time and I did it when I was working on my BA..  A degree in logic doesn’t guarantee that the holder of the degree will act rationally.  It only means they passed a bunch of exams.

            As for professionals, I wouldn’t go to a woman doctor if my life depended on it.  I know how flawed a woman’s logic is. Lawyers?  Never needed one but if I do it won’t be a woman.  Socially I avoid them like the plague.  The one woman lawyer I do know of is that bonehead who prosecuted OJ Simpson’s case.  She took a bunch of made up, planted evidence fabricated by known black haters and attempted to show that the only logical conclusion one could come to was that OJ was quilty.  That woman doesn’t have an ounce of sense between her ears though she looks like she could be feisty in bed so she’s worth something, just not as a lawyer. Congress people?  Surely thou jest.  Those idiots are the least rational of all and thieves to boot.  The men amongst them are women.

            Finally, if I’m irrational for being in this conversation then I guess you are too because clearly you are in this conversation.  Yep, typical woman irrationality.

          • Levi-hunter

            ur a sad sad sad old man who thinks hes right due to the fact u have a perception of ur views being exact and refuse to accept the possibility of ur view not being correct. stay in ur own little world old man. and continue to think that u have the vast majority of women pegged. Continue to defend your own point and be ignorant and hard headed like all men (just kidding, if i thought that, i would be as dumb as you) :p doesn’t matter what u have in between ur legs. ^.^ u can be just as crazy, irrational, and or stupid as the next person.

          • Levi-hunter

            The fact u continue to defend just proves my point, the fact people are arguing to someone as deaf as you also proves my point. good day sir ^.^

          • redjujube

            No, the fact that you counter my rationality with irrationality proves MY point.  Furthermore, you seem to think calling me sir adds an air of confidence, graciousness or correctness to you poorly punctuated and misspelled drivel.  It does not.
             

          • lady

            you clearly have never been married :) womens logic can be as flawed as the day is long but you will still kiss our asses to get laid…or to get the atm card

          • redjujube

            What an irrational thing to say.  You can’t possibly know whether I am married or not yet you claim it is clear that I am not. The fact is I have been married to the same woman for 39 years. She worked and supported us for 2 years while I was in university but I have been the sole bread winner in our home for the past 37.  I have never had to kiss her ass to get laid.  Her appetite surpasses mine and almost always has. For the past 3 years she has been so insatiable that we have invited  other men to join us. Last week she wore out 3 of us and still wanted more.  I love the sight of another man’s cock thrusting in and out of her pussy, the way her succulent lips wrap around his meat, as she moans in ecstasy. Double penetration while she sucks on the third is her favorite.  I can’t tell you how gratifying and uncomplicated it is to be married to a woman who accepts the fact that she is a slut and takes full responsibility for it.  You should try it too. By the way, she wants to taste another woman. Would you be interested in joining us?

          • Aa

            Haha you’re the biggest hypocrite ever. You just called half the people here women with no way of knowing if they’re women or not. By your words that makes you irrational. AND DON’T YOU DARE PULL THE CARD “I ASSUMED THEY’RE WOMEN BASED ON WHAT THEY SAY” because everyone here assumes you’re a 20 year old fat virgin kid that everyone hates based on what you’re saying.

            Dood. Do you want me to solve your life mystery? The mystery to why you’re obsessed with men’s superior rational. See, when you’re walking down the street and you see a woman do something “irrational”, you’ll quickly say in your head “TYPICAL WOMAN BEING IRRATIONAL”, but when you see a man doing the same thing you would say “THAT MAN IS ACTING LIKE A WOMAN”. Do you see what you’re doing wrong there? You’re blaming women in both situations and completely ignoring the fact that men can also be irrational. You’re doing this ever so clearly IN EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOUR COMMENTS. An obvious obvious OBSESSION, nay SEVERE MAXIMUM SUPER SAIYAN OBSESSION.
            Not to forget that “rational” and “irrational” are matters of opinion. For example, a woman clearing all spiders and their webs in her home would tell you it’s the perfectly rational thing to do, and that a person that leaves spiders and their webs in every corner of their home is very irrational. This makes it very easy to just label anything that you see a woman do as “irrational”. The truth is the most irrational person I see on this page is you with your mindless thoughtless obsession with labeling women as irrational.

          • redjujube

            Haha on you.  You just told me I’m a hypocrite for assuming some people here are women based on what they say then you assume I’m a 20 year old fat virgin kid based on what I’ve said.  ROFLMAO!! BTW, most of the people I’ve assumed are women actually stated they are women.

            Other reasons you must be a woman…

            1) I’m not obsessed with anything.  I hardly ever give the female penchant for irrationality a thought except when I post here.  To assume I’m obsessed is irrational so I am convinced you are a woman.

            2) I don’t judge anybody when I’m walking down the street because I can never know the reason(s) for why they do what they do.  It’s different in this forum.  Here people have explained their reason(s) for saying what they say and when their reasons are irrational then I rightfully assume they’re women.

            3) Ration is not a matter of opinion. Never has been and never will be but I don’t expect a woman to understand that.  It’s OK because I’m sure your womanly qualities make you attractive anyway.

          • Aa

            Umm I didn’t call you a hypocrite because you “assumed” (definition: Suppose to be the case, without proof) people are women, but you were flat out stating that they are women. my “assuming others are women” quote was simply me trying to predict your upcoming excuse. also when i said everyone here assumes you’re a 20 year old fat virgin kid, i was simply giving you an example of how such assumption could be wrong if what you said in your previous comment was true where you described yourself as a 60 year old or something. so ROFLMAO FAIL. and no most of the people you DECLARED as women DID NOT DECLARE THEMSELVES AS WOMEN. if you just scroll down a bit you’d see..

            Maybe I did misdiagnose you when I said you were obsessed, but that depends on your definition of obsessed. It’s hard to imagine that you only look down on women here and that you don’t immediately label any woman you see on the street as irrational.

            Anyway let me point you to your biggest flaw again. “Here people have explained their reason(s) for saying what they say and
            when their reasons are irrational then I rightfully assume they’re
            women.” NO YOU DIDN’T JUST SAY I RIGHTFULLY ASSUME THEY’RE WOMEN. OH NO YOU DIDN’T. OH NOOOO (forgetting the fact that you can’t “rightfully assume” anything ever). According to what you said a new test to determine wheteher a person is a woman or a man is to judge them based on their actions (irrational or not). SO GUESS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU DO THAT. When a man acts irrational….. let me give you a second to try to think about this……………………………………………… WHEN A MAN ACTS IRRATIONAL YOU DECLARE HIM A WOMAN, THUS FEEDING YOUR IDEA THAT MEN DO NOT ACT IRRATIONAL. Wait… you really need to get this into your head… you see a man doing something irrational… you disregard it… soooo… IN THE END MEN ARE FREE OF ANY IRRATIONALITY… THIS IS WHAT YOU’RE DOING WRONG… PLEASE.. FOCUS… Ok… so it’s true that women are proven to be more irrational, but it’s not NEARLY as big of a difference between men and women as you’re imagining. 

            Also, you are right. Ration is not a matter of opinion. CAUSE RATION IS AN AMOUNT OF FOOD YOU’RE GIVEN. What you mean is rational/rationality. AND YES IT IS A MATTER OF OPINION. DON’T JUST DECLARE IT NOT A MATTER OF OPINION AND NOT EXPLAIN YOURSELF. CAUSE THAT GIVES YOU OH SO MUCH CREDIBILITY. YOU DON’T EXPECT ME TO UNDERSTAND WHAT? YOU EXPLAINED NOTHING.
            irrationality : ” It is more specifically described as an action or opinion given through
            inadequate reasoning, emotional distress, or cognitive deficiency”.
            Here the key thing to note is that who is it up to to decide what “adequate reasoning” is needed to be rational, how “emotinally undistressed” you have to be (you’re experiencing some emotion or another at all times), or how “intelligent” you have to be.

          • redjujube

            You’re pathetic. You said something and now you try and claim you didn’t say it.  FAIL FAIL FAIL

            The rest of your rant is just a lot of yelling.  I can’t be bothered arguing with a 6 year old.

            If men are naturally gifted with infallible logic, why in the world would you go through all the trouble to get a Ph.D in it?

          • redjujube

            Naturally gifted with infallible logic… I didn’t say that.  I obtained a Ph.D in logic because that is the qualification required to teach the subject at a university level.

          • Calicoma

            Yes, I’m sure Angela Merkel would love to know that she’s irrationally leading Europe’s largest economy.  I’m sure she got elected Chancellor based on the absence of anything between her ears.  Margaret Thatcher, too , was probably a closet airhead, right?  Along with the female presidents of Ireland, Liberia (Wait, didn’t she just walk off with a Nobel Prize for emptyheadedness this year?), Argentina, etc. etc.  Meanwhile the male-dominated Financial & Corporate sectors have really done a sterling job of demonstrating their level-headed ability to handle large issues in a rational, logical way.  Say, mortgage derivatives and the banking system, just to pick a couple of high points from the last few years.  And by the way, I am a reformed arachnophobe.  Used to kill them all on sight, but now I only go after the transparent greens.   They ARE biters.  The rest of them – especially the tiny little wolf spiders like in the captioned pics – I leave to their own devices.  Especially when they’re outside, in their very own habitat.

            “Typical irrational woman”? Way to stereotype half the human race. Phobias are never rational, regardless of whether someone is male or female. Personally, I leave spiders alone or carry them outside. I’m more willing than most men I know to catch spiders and insects (even huge wasps) and take them outside.

          • redjujube

            Some stereotypes are very true, like it or not.  If you take harmless spiders outside then you’re a woman because taking them out isn’t rational.  They’re your friends and help protect you from nasty insects.  The reason you’re more willing than men to catch and remove spiders is because men just leave them alone (if they’re not poisonous) which is the rational thing to do.  Huge wasps are a different story.  They have nasty bites so it’s rational to catch them and take them outdoors.  I kill them and give them to my dog, he loves them.

          • moi

            I’m a woman :D and pretty damn rational if I do so say so myself. Still, I’ll mostly agree with your sweeping generalization.

        • Shinosaurous

          Has you ever been into an honors class or seen people accepting awards for how smart they are? There are usually more girls/women in those groups. So if women have no logic and aren’t smart, I’d hate to see a mans brain.

          • redjujube

            Any woman can go to school, read a book and spew back what she read on an exam.  That doesn’t make her rational.  It just proves she can read, memorize and recite what she read.  There may be more women doing that because us men are out earning a living and supporting the women in school.  And you don’t get awards for being smart.  You get awards for achieving which doesn’t always correlate with IQ or smarts.  Now here’s something for you to think about… How many women have received Nobel prizes in fields of research? Since you’re talking about awards.

            Oh, and it’s have not has and man’s not mans.  If you cannot discipline your mind enough to learn proper spelling and grammar then how do you expect to be taken seriously as someone who can reason.  That takes discipline but your writing demonstrates you haven’t any.

          • Dicer

            In the event that it’s actually appropriate to comment on other people’s grammar and spelling, I might say that you yourself might consider learning where to appropriately place question marks, commas, colons, and whatever other punctuation marks you’ve tacitly screwed over in your noble desire to correct Shinosaurous’ clearly abhorrent syntax. At least it would lend a modicum of strength to your words, since clearly we know that someone who can’t necessarily speak or write English with perfect grammar and spelling cannot possibly be an intelligent, rational being with perfectly reasonable ideas. Sophistry, I thought, was not the object–in fact, I gathered that you yourself indicated that the object was, in fact, rationality–a trait which you are displaying little to none of, although, if I may twist a previous statement of yours slightly, irrational people rarely realise how irrational they really are.

          • Penis

            Women cant drive, should stay in the kitchen, please the man, and not say shit about our house spiders… House spiders have more rights then women do in my opinion

          • :P

            I bet you get laid ALL THE TIME.

          • redjujube

            If he has a woman who likes to cook a lot, please her man and be pleased by him, leaves the driving to him and leaves his spiders alone he probably does get laid all the time.  I do.  Another thing thing about spiders is the fact they don’t need 15 pairs of shoes.  That’s rational!  8 feet yet no need for shoes.  Damn,  even I am not that rational.

          • Levi-hunter

            ur simply assuming off of stereotypes that society has made. how irrational. >.< u a woman to? or maybe ur just a man who is irrational as all people can be. look at jersey shore. men and women can and will be on an equal playing field. ur probably from the 50s were u think women should stay in the kitchen or something. and that's understandable. nurture over nature. u have a belief, and regardless of how much information is throw at you, u will continue to defend your point, doesn't matter if ur wrong. u need to feel right, because its what u believe in? i think its more of u being a sad sad man who cant accept the way things are. live life to the fullest. and continue to troll good sir. someday u will die with ur beliefs, take them to your grave, and deal with ur stupidity.

          • redjujube

            You must be a woman, you think Jersey Shore is reality or even reflects reality.  ROFLMAO!!!  Look, some stereotypes are true whether you like it or not. And you will argue your beliefs too whether you are right or wrong and you can’t accept the fact that women are irrational. When I die I’ll be done with this life and not have to deal with anything from it. Thinking I’ll have to deal with anything after death simply isn’t rational.  I’m sure you’re a woman now.

            Well I’m a woman and I think that its both sad AND irrational for people to be arguing over which gender is more rational. Yes it is true that many women are emotional. On the reverse, many men have huge egos. Does this make either gender more irrational? Nope. I all depends on the PERSON. I’ve seen women completely irrational and I’ve seen men completely irrational and it all has to do with hormones. So please stop arguing and start acting like RATIONAL adults. 

            As for redjujube, you should just go back to 1950 because that’s obviously where you belong. No man paid for my BScN and Doctor of Medicine degrees, I worked 20 hours/week and went to school to do that for myself. I’m proud of what I have accomplished in my life and do consider myself to be a rational person. Do I have moments of irrationality? Of course, but everybody does. So please put your pompous opinions where they belong- in your wife’s vagina, as you’ve made it perfectly clear that she loves living with a male chauvinist.

            So a degree doesn’t qualify as proof of intelligence, but an IQ test does? Do you have any knowledge about anything you’re talking about? http://fairtest.org/racism-eugenics-and-testing-again

            I’m curious as to what exactly your definition of “rational” is, because I’m not sure that you really understand that “rational” does not mean masculine and “emotional” does not mean feminine. You seem to think that women are mentally and physically incapable of any kind of rational thought, when many women on this forum have provided you with many rational arguments to debate your rather irrational and utterly untrue statements about the human race. I’m not really sure how you can make the argument that a woman reading a book and “[spewing] back what she read on an exam” is any different from a man doing that, or are you implying that when women read they don’t retain the information and understand it the same way that men do? I’m a female college graduate and I saw my fair share of both men and women pulling that stunt, and none of them gained anything from it. However, I’m able to sit down and use terms like “hegemonic gender roles” and know exactly what I’m talking about, and I’m just taking a break from homework at 2am, trying to enjoy some StumbleUpon, not taking an exam. I have had many women teachers who have taught me very rational fields of study, like Linguistics, and I’ve had male teachers teach me abstract and emotional classes, such as poetry writing.

            So I must, again, beg the question of what you consider to be rational. You seem to mention at the bottom of your statement that it involves discipline, and if you think that women aren’t disciplined, then you obviously aren’t aware of the fact that there are currently more women applying for colleges in the United States than men. Colleges accept the same number of men as they do women, meaning that it’s actually easier for men to be admitted into college with less discipline than women. Also, women have to discipline themselves to be able to exist in a world that still houses many sexists assholes, such as yourself, and in a society that already favors men. Go pick up a book. Count how often women are referred to in the passive voice. Compare that to men. Do the same for the active voice. You’ll find that in writing, the passive voice is much more common when a woman is performing the action than when a man is. Sexism is so embedded in our culture that it’s actually inherent and unnoticed in our actual language. That trend is even common in the works of prominent feminist authors, such as Kate Chopin. Our culture is so sexist that it doesn’t even realize its own sexism. Women have to overcome that and work harder than men and be smarter than men every single day, and are still subjected to the criticisms of men like yourselves, who have it much easier. Funny that we’re still paid less.

            As for the issue of grammar, this is an internet post, not a college classroom. If criticizing other people’s grammar is really what you’re resorting to for your argument then you are less rational than you think. Grammar has nothing to do with being rational, especially over the internet.

            According to the OED:
            Rational: 
            Having the faculty of reasoning; endowed with reason. Esp. in rational being, rational creature, rational soul, etc.

          • redjujube

            Where did I say an IQ test can prove/disprove intelligence or measure intelligence? I didn’t.  Then you ask “Do you have any knowledge about anything you’re talking about?” to which I must respond… you don’t have a clue what I said. You put words in my mouth that I’ve never spoken .  Another woman carried away by her emotions to the point of irrationality. That’s why women earn less. They just can’t keep up with men.

            I’m not a sexist pig. I haven’t been killed and eaten by black widows for 2 reasons: 1) there are none around here and 2) I am smarter than a spider

          • Guest

            I severely doubt that second part. :)

            OK, I’m a sexist pig but that doesn’t change the fact that women are irrational.
             

          • brap

            Not to nit pick, but that’s the incorrect use of ‘begs the question’.
            Don’t feel bad, a lot of people do it.

            The correct place to put ‘begs the question’ is when someone answers your question in such a way that rephrases their original statement and doesn’t clarify anything.
            E.g.
            A: He’s mad.
            B: Why?
            A: Because he’s pissed off.
            B: That begs the question.
            (In this instance, person C isn’t mad because they’re mad, person A has just failed to explain to person B why person C was upset.)

          Really? I’m a woman and I definitely don’t think like that. I would rather have the spider than the disease. Spiders are easy. Scoop them up on a piece of paper and put them outside. End of problem. Disease? Not so easy.

          • redjujube

            Yep, you’re a woman all right. Putting them outside is not logical unless of course they’re the poisonous kind. The logical thing to do with harmless spiders is leave them in your house where they help protect you. As I said earlier, woman CAN read logic, memorize it and regurgitate it.  Keep reading, you almost have it memorized.

    • Lev Lafayette

      I suspect you’ve never lived in a place where where people die of mosquito-borne encephalitis, where three quarters of the population have caught malaria or have caught dengue fever yourself.

      And of course by saying this, yes I have.

      Personally I go out of my way to cultivate a nice collection of cellar spiders. Absolutely harmless to humans and pets, not nearly as scary to visitors and they keep the bugs away. A win for all concerned.

  • HerpDerp

    I love my house spiders. I make sure they stay alive and reproduce. I’d rather have some spiders than those horrid house centipedes.

    • HerpinDerp

      Jokes on you, house centipedes eat spiders.

      • TheBlackOne

        Centipedes are badass bugs they’ll eat anything.

        • Stane37

          And are more likely to be venomous than spiders. 

          • http://www.facebook.com/jonrichfield Jon Richfield

            Wellll… actually, roughly equally likely. Nearly all spiders are venomous, including all those you are likely to find in your house. However, that does not mean that they (spiders or house centipedes) realistically are risks in the house. There still is a lot of hype about violinbacks and sac spiders, but even if all the hype were true they would not generally be a major factor in one’s health and beauty hazards.

            What got me to reply here is that the house centipede (which does not normally occur where I live)  is a shockingly beautiful creature when it walks, with the patterns of leg movements running down its body like the wings of a trireme — and yet certain people call them horrid???? Sheeesh!

    But the spider isn’t doing it for you. And when the bugs are gone, some spiders have been known to seek any blood available. Ever wake up with an itchy pair of dots on your leg? Ef a spider. Don’t want bugs? Don’t leave your door open when lights are on, and don’t leave food out on the counter for them.

    • http://www.danaseilhan.com Dana Seilhan

    • Balls

      What? Thats the biggest pile of shit I’ve read yet. If you are scared of a little jumping spider then you are a pussy of such magnitude that light cannot escape your mass. Trust me I’m from northern australia and we have spiders that are bigger than your handspan in our house, have I ever been bitten, no. Get a grip. Spiders are awesome little friendly guys. Pick one up ( a house/jumping spider ) I guarantee it will not bite you.

      • Myrrh

        Well… actually, when I was a teenager, I DID pick up a house/jumping spider to move it to a safer location and it most assuredly bit me. Then I put it back down again. It didn’t actually do any damage – the bite felt about like being pricked by a needle. There are so many types of spiders, and even if some do damage, these jumping spiders do not. Jumping spiders do no lay eggs in people, or seek out blood, or bite except in self-defense.

        I really like spiders, and never kill them. They are fascinating, beneficial creatures. The hatred (not to mention sexism) on this thread is disgusting and ignorant.

          • quicksand_buddy
          • Olivia

            Spiders don’t lay eggs in people.  They build egg sacs that need specific temperature, humidity, and protected environments–which is not what you find in warm, moist human muscle.  There are flies that do lay eggs in live and rotting flesh, but saying that you hate spiders because of what flies do is like saying you hate puppies because birds poop on your car.  They’re completely different animals.

          • quicksand_buddy

            Dude, you’re missing the point. I’m an arachnophobe. I don’t have to explain my desire to set fire to every 8-legged freak I find. 

          • Lolth

            No – all arachnophobia means is that you CAN’T explain your desire to set fire to every spider you find. Just because it’s irrational and you can’t help it doesn’t mean it’s okay.

          • quicksand_buddy

            Good Lord, what is the problem with you people? Just leave me and my spider hate alone. The more you argue with me the more I snicker at you for making such a big deal out of nothing.

          • quicksand_buddy

            The point is that I will never not hate spiders and will resort to ridiculous hyperbole to justify it. So, yeah, people are missing my point.

          • Snuzzle

            Well, that’s fine and all, but this is about post about why you shouldn’t hate spiders. That’s like going to an article about how yummy cupcakes are and posting “I HATE CUPCAKES. I once choked on a cupcake and died, so I hate them. Dude, why are you all trying to defend cupcakes, just leave me alone and let me hate them!”

          • quicksand_buddy

            Except that nobody hates cupcakes because cupcakes are awesome whereas arachnophobia is very widespread. If this was a Spider Lovers Anonymous post, then you’d have more of a point

            But seriously, listen to your arguments. This entire thread is a series of logical fallacies, including ad hominems. By definition, you can’t explain arachnophobia. It is irrational. It makes no sense. Stop trying. It is only hurting your position. Accept that there is no logical or rational way to justify it and move on.

            Do you have anything to support this claim, beyond your own unreviewed observations? If you can find a scientific research article concluding that women are biologically less rational than men, I’ll consider that you could be right. If this is based on either what you’ve been taught by others or by your own experiences with women, I’m sorry you had to  put up with it, but please do not make general claims based on limited data. After, generalizing is one of the least rational things that humans do.

            Fact: Spiders CAN lay eggs in people.  A brown recluse spider planted an egg sac in my fiance’s knee in a cut he had. When the cut started to swell and get really sore he went to the doctor.  They had to cut open the sore and flush out the sac.  He now has MRSA because of the spider bite.

            Also you can’t get MRSA from a spider bite, so getchurshitstraightboiiiiiiii

          • Just sayin’.

            He may not have gotten MRSA from the spider bite directly, but any open wound, even a paper cut, can contract MRSA. It’s a very contagious, sneaky bacteria…. :)

          • DreamsofParadise

            MRSA can resemble a spider bite, but that’s not necessarily what caused it.

            Well hate to break this to you but I know of one instance that a spider has laid eggs under a humans skin. I witnessed a girl in one of my classes in high school with really bad acne have baby spiders clime out of what seemed to be a zit. Still makes me cringe to this day. She switched schools after that. I felt really bad for her. I am not a big fan of spiders but i don’t kill them in my house I run away.

          • Jonrichfield

            Hi guy! Ten out of ten for imagination! Go and write horror scripts for the TV; they need guys like you. The main arthropods that lay eggs are flies of kinds that spider eat. I hope they can spare one for you. I am an arachnophobe myself, but I don’t let that spoil my appreciation of them; I happen just to have photographed a couple of really cute beauties.

          • Jonrichfield

          • Morgana13

            Indeed… I’d be far more worried about, say, a botfly than a spider. Of course, humans have a fear of things being literally under their skin, so we jump on stories about them. I’m still trying to figure out how a spider could build an egg-sac in your face without you noticing, though.

            While I agree that the excessive use of profanity in that post makes it unpleasant to read, s/he does have a point. Personally, I find it a little scary that there are so many likes on a post encouraging suicide, even if it is directed at someone who appears to be a prick.

            not so, japan has half the poplulation of the u.s. and it’s the size of california, and only half of japan is populated, and they are doing alot better then we are as far as their economy

          • hmmm

            I don’t know, brown recluse bites are pretty nasty and usually require the care of a physician. Are you sure you were bitten by them? What region do you live in?

        • BunnyOle

          seriously though, they DO eat the bugs that give us diseases and stuff, so instead of killing them – do what I do, catch them in a jar or something and put them outside…of all bugs they’re pretty intelligent, I mean I kill plenty of kinds of bugs, but spiders give me a ‘look’ and I just can’t kill things that can give me ‘looks’ praying mantis are like that too.

          I have been bitten by brown recluses before, causing pitted scars; and one time I found a small tarantula that must have been living under my end table in the corner for 6 months, but I just left it there – it never left and boy did it eat bugs.

      Maybe you should talk to your spiders like my friend does. Every spring she has a speech with them. It goes like this: “Hello, spiders. I know you’re here. I just wanted to let you know that I have arachnophobia, but as long as I don’t see you I won’t kill you. Stay hidden, don’t scare me in the shower, and I we can be peaceful roommates. Now lets have a great year!”

      • quicksand_buddy

        That’s what I had to do during my semester in Japan. The spiders were huge and everywhere and nothing could really be done about it, so I had to live with them on a don’t-hurt-me-and-I-won’t-hurt-you pact.

    So true, I’ve never killed spiders or centipedes(I generally kill flies on sight and mosquitoes on mere “jedi sense” btw) and barring isolated occasions of gross laziness I’ve never had more than a few fruit fly incursions into my apartment and have rarely seen more than one house fly at a time. Plus, they’re kinda cute if you spend a minute or two thinking about them and the selfish act of paranoid aggression we seem to so love to commit against creatures that have in fact evolved in parallel to us.

    The spider is not an arthropod (6 legs), its an arachnid (8 legs)!

      Arthropods include insects AND spiders. Just sayin….

    • Alysia

      Arachnids are arthropods. Arachnida is only a class out of the larger Subphylum Chelicerata and the larger still Phylum Arthropoda, which includes insects (though they’re in different subphyla and classes). The Phylum isn’t characterized by just number of legs. :]

We have these gigantic ground spiders that scuttle across the room every five seconds, I’ve stepped on several BY ACCIDENT there’s so many of them, and they’re as big as mice. They also have a habit of crawling into beds, shoes, and trying to run across the ceiling and then falling on your head because they’re too freaking gigantic. They can go hunt some friggin birds outside, I’m not taking this shit in my house.

      Spiders very very very rarely bite people, especially when sleeping. Most bites are actually from a variety of insects, not spiders (I’m an entomologist and very keen on spiders).

      • Wordsmyth

        So, please tell us, can/do spiders lay eggs in human living skin. I ask, because several posts asserted to this, while others called them delusional or (at the very least) wildly imaginative. My sister has had spiders burst from a boil on her leg. We (my other sister, myself, my father and my mother) all saw it… it was horrific. I’m not delusional or wildly imaginative either, but I’d like an etymologist to please tell other that this IS indeed possible, and we aren’t all crazy :D

        P.S. you would think after such an experience I would somewhat wary of spiders, but I think they are pretty cool creatures and kind of defend them when friends and family try to kill them… I’ve made a deal with my wife, that she’s allowed to kill any spiders in our house, but not the ones outside… though I would prefer she simply leave them alone and let them get on with their lives, ya know?

    I have a bat box on my property to keep the bugs away. I also have a cat that is very aggressive with insects.. Sorry buggies, the creatures I keep around take care of you for me. I have very attractive blood to mosquitoes, so I really have to watch out for them. I can get bit several times within a minute or two, even when I have bug spray on while other people near me are completely ignored. The bats have helped a lot. Plus, the bats don’t really bother anyone, they reduce the insect population and we have no threat from them. They’re a bit noisy sometimes, but that’s about as far as it goes. They leave us alone and we leave them alone. Spiders don’t really bother me so much though, I am normally a catch and release person, no matter what the creature.

  • Rouyakan

    I remember reading somewhere that killing a spider actually ATTRACTS MORE SPIDERS. They come to check out the blood/smell/potential food. So next time you’re squealing and chucking your shoes around, remember that you’re probably just gonna have more in there soon anyway.

    I DO agree with exterminating the venomous ones if they come into your living quarters. Found a Black Widow in my garage and I did kill it. Why? Because a) I really didn’t want it to create baby Black Widows and have to deal with them and b) because I didn’t want to get accidentally bit. They can live outside, not in my house. Wolf spiders can chill around, they eat all the other bugs and pretty much keep out of sight.

    Yes they are misunderstood… you’re fucking like 1,000 times the size of the thing, stop being disgraces to the human race. This isn’t even a fucking house spider, it’s a jumping spider. Spiders know when they are on a living organisms… fuck they can even tell if a living or non-living organism is touching their webs. If they’re on you, they’ve accepted being on you as non-threatening. Most of the time you’re bit it’s because you don’t know about it being on you and you lean on it, or jar it in some manner that threatens its life.

    Ok well how about this: would you rather have ants in your food, termites in your walls, mosquitos (which in my opinion serve no purpose but to annoy and spread disease) and flies in the air, or have 2 – 3 small spiders in your house? Spiders don’t take care of roaches do they? I’m not really sure on that.

  • Onesoldierserving

    So much entertainment in the comments!  @quicksand_buddy:disqus , I am not an arachnophobe, but live with one and I can understand your sentiment.  Everyone else, I love the quasi-serious, yet humorous self-righteous banter.  Just sayin.

    I try not to kill them. I just put them outside. I still feel like an asshole after reading this though.

  • Styna

    reading over the comments was much more interesting than the actual subject of this page.

    I don’t mind spiders, though.

  • chris

    I love spiders. I dunno why everyone thinks they’re creepy. They keep the other bugs out of the house, so I leave’em be unless they put up a web somewhere obvious (in which case the little buggers usually get the hint and relocate). No mosquitos, no wasps (which i really do haaaaate. Creepy little demon spawn bastards). I’m no hippy, but at least a spider earns its keep, so they’re allowed to live if i find one. :P

    This makes me sad, but I still don’t like spiders…

  • Max

    Okay I’ll admit that spiders are slightly misunderstood creatures. I had two living by my front door and back door, killing insects that bothered me and they kept to themselve’s just fine. But when spiders just chill in my huse and make webs and I walk into them, someone’s gotta go. And then there was the time I opened up my sliding glass door for the first time in a year, and spider the size of the face of my watch flew in “sprinting” toward me. Now that was an agressize mutha f**** and he had to die. So I used my lighter and hair spray. Try to bite me when I’m trying to get fresh air and see if you don’t die. In better words, there are good spiders and bad spiders. There needs to be mass exintiction of the bad ones… NOW. Like this one in the picture… bad spiders need one headshot with a 12 gauge. That is all.

    I don’t kill spiders.  I do put them outside though… I just recently found out they eat cockroaches.  But they do kill mosquitoes, and those are my hated enemies!  They love me.  I tell my spider friends to go kill the mosquitoes.  We have a happy relationship.  No hippisms here.  Not when you live in a country where cockroaches are as big as american fifty cent pieces and the mosquitoes cause swelling bad enough for people to ask if you’ve been hit by someone.  So, go spiders go!  My house is available!!! :)

  • Morgana13

    I still can’t leave them in the house… mostly because they bite when I scare them and I don’t like being bitten. Besides, they die from random stuff in the house anyway. Like drowning because you didn’t know they were in the shower with you. I just try to take them outside…

  • Aalexgoesboom

    Spiders are my number one fear but now im started to feel about about hating them so much :(

    After reading the comments on this thread I want the past ten minutes of my life back you horrible horrible troglodytes.

    And I want spiders to hatch out of the skin of every_single_spammer of the world. Right before they burst into flames from my concentrated hate of both spam and arachnids.

    LOVE THESE!! Spiders are important parts of nature, but are sadly misunderstood. What a great way to get folks to rethink their phobias or hatred of these little guys…

  • Cucumbijuana

    I never even knew that spiders kill all of those other pests for us. From now on, I’m going to be friends with the spiders! I need to shout this to the whole world, let me get my shoes on. OW! Crap I got bit by a spider in my shoe! Oh my god it’s a Brown Recluse! AHHHHH MY TOE’S SKIN IS BEING EATEN AWAY!! FUCK SPIDERS! FUCK THOSE EIGHT LEGGED FREAKS!

    Ok that didn’t happen, but it goes to show. Spiders take territories, they’re not friends with you and they eat pests because they’re its prey. If you fuck with a spider, it’ll attack. That’s why we gotta reclaim our territory. So again, fuck spiders. This is MY house!

  • Emvirginia

    Seeing, I love spiders. They are amazing, and have use in the world. Only problem is the Hobo Spider. I nearly had a heart attack when I picked up a discarded piece of paper in the garage, the thing nearly charged me! Otherwise, mad love for spiders that can’t kill humans in a single bite.

  • http://twitter.com/natnie Natalie

    I live in Australia. The spiders I get most often in my house can cause necrotising wounds if they bite you.
    Forgive me if I kill them always, forever.

  • Sympathy

    So this time I was taking a shower.. And this spider was all trapped in the tub trying to get out and stay dry. Naturally, I kicked some water on him and he swished away. But he caught himself on the drain and held on. I ignored him for a minute or two.. He still was there, clinging for life. I felt bad for the bro, he deserved to live after 2 minutes of water smashing down on him. As I reached down to pick him up out of the drain, his arms gave out and he was swept away.. I will save every spider in the shower I can.

  • Haplo_10

    unless they are black widows or brown recluses i pretty much welcome spiders in my home… either that or I take them back outside.

    i completely understand their place in the home but some spiders really should be let go like…the black widow, and any such poisonous spiders that like chasing you around your bed when you wake up to just go pee. lol but many other harmless spiders that stay away from you should stay in the home. little babies may not be the best if the babies are poisonous. i once took a shower with a million baby daddy long legs. i wasn’t afraid it was annoying though.

    Guessing I’m the only person here who actually DOESN’T kill a spider on sight…they’re one of the few bugs that I know have a significant purpose in this world. They kill all the bugs that both annoy and are harmful to us humans. Keep on doing your thing little house spider. c:

      dude, spiders are gross.  They carry bacteria, you eat on average 9 a year in your sleep, and I just flat out don’t want any creatures in MY house that I PAYED for.  Has nothing to do with eating bugs.

  • Yv

    I like spiders.

    I just wish I could communicate with them and say, “Don’t bite me, stay out of my tub and bed, and we’ll be okay.”

    I was bitten by a spider that crawled into my bed one night when I got up to go to the restroom. So that’s where that comes from.

    I have always taken (or at least tried) to take the spiders I find in my home outside (though I admit to accidentally squishing a few of the delicate ones) I think they are really cool… also I have never been bit by a spider in all my years of playing in the woods and doing laundry in my moms spider filled basement. I think it’s because they know that I am not going to squash them ;)

    soo.. trap them and bring them outside if you don’t want them in the house (understandable).. don’t kill them. they don’t mean harm. 

  • Godfrey

    I kinda feel sorry for the spider now… hahaha! Not that I kill them but throwing them out the house now doesn’t seem as humane as I originally thought :P

    I do not like spiders in my house for the sole reason that they go in my bed and bite me in my sleep, if they did not do that I would not mind them being around but I do not like to squish them either, I just put them outside instead (or try to).

    thesee are funni… i have to say i feel bad for the spiders… its not their fault they are nasty but i also confess i killed one today….  o.O

    In scotland they are harmless, I think there are a few that bite but I’ve never seen them in any home. I don’t mind them at all. They look weird but I love that. And yes they are on our side! Sadly my mum and sister don’t agree and I’ve killed many of them :(

  • Joyce

    I like spiders

  • Jpdeanna

    If I see one I will kill it, I used to set them outside until I learned that a house spider will not survive outside and I would be killing it slowly in a cruel way. I do this also because if I see it, my cats will see it, and they will not kill it quickly, they will torture the poor little thing. If they stay out of sight in corners etc. they can live, I don’t have problem with them. We do need population control though, one Momma can have a hundred babies! They are usually fine if they stay up off of the floors etc.

  • dont hate

    how can you not feel remorse for the poor little things…look at them with their big eyes and little “arms” that make them look like they’re begging you…and they’re all fuzzy..

    spiders have all the same attributes as cats except they have more legs and more eyes.  and you don’t have to pay for the spiders.  why you all hatin’ on ‘em? 

    I’m not being sarcastic.  Just to be clear.

    I’ve been bitten by a spiders ants, stung by scorpions, bees. and eaten alive by mosquitoes. I didn’t die. In fact I’m fairly certain that I’ve been damaged worse by dog bites and cat scratches.The thing is Things with more than one set of eyes and 2 pairs of legs give me the Willies. seriously, Spiders are the most alien looking creature s on earth as far as humans are concerned, and people hate things that are different. It’s in our genes to want to kill them. is it right? no. it’s just the way we are.

    Had a friend spider. Actually it was kinda like a street person that just suddenly appeared out of nowhere knocking on my car window looking for spare change. Not really a friend spider. But it was good at hanging out.
    Showed up one morning in the bathroom behind my shaver stand. The nightlight was right there and was attracting no-see-ums. Friend-spider was doing ok picking them off.
    He didnt bother me and never budged even while I brushed my teeth and shaved. Really need to Google how well they can see, wonder if he was paying attention. I would greet him in the morning and then say “see you later” when I left for my commute. He was still there in the evening just hanging out in the same exact spot from ten hours earlier.
    This went on for a few days but then he caught a big — no, BIG — housefly. Now he was like a street person that had set up a chaise chair on the sidewalk – couldn’t be ignored.
    My wife always uses the master bathroom and only comes into my bathroom to tidy things up. No way was she going to not see the dangling housefly and my friend would then DEFINITELY be a floating castaway spinning in a whirlpool. Nope, she wouldn’t even ask me if this guy was my friend.

    Spiders have always given me the jeebies but I respect them for what they do for us so I don’t kill them, I just eject them from my room when they occasionaly pop in. We have a big enough house for them to find somewhere else to spin their web. These are cute. I’m pretty sure if I had already decided not to kill spiders then this would have changed my mind about them. :)
