SO I was walking to my front door last night coming back from tennis. I walk through the arch in front of my door and my face goes through a spider web. I didnt worry because this happens often, but then I feel something on my head. I throw all my **** on the ground and brush off my head. .... Then I see it..... This spider, I swear to god, was the size of a watermelon. So I freaked out and kicked it, but not like a regular kick, I kicked this spider farther than freakin Jason Elam would of. So, my question is, what kinds of spiders live in Texas that are HUGE? I have never seen a spider that big in my life.
Banana spider is the only one I can think of, any yellow on it anywhere? I remember running into a web when I was a kid and literally bouncing off
Wolf Spiders get pretty big? What did it look like? Was it furry? Brown? Light? Dark? mmmm making me shrudder.
Depends on the size, coloring if it had hair at all. Orb Weavers, a cousin to the spider family, can grow pretty large as well.
The only ones im familar with in texas are the Wolf, brown lucose (spell?), Daddy Long legs, garden/banana, and those f*cking jumping spiders. Ive seen many different types of the Orb Weavers, but I didn't know thats what they were called. I also didn't know they came in various sizes. Bottom Line: I hate spiders. Kill them all!
Ugh... that's horrible. A similar thing happened to me when I was a kid, except it was in a forest. It was a rain spider. "I kicked this spider farther than freakin Jason Elam would of." The 'of' in this sentence should be a 'have'.
It probably was one of those big orange spiders you see all over the place - I'm not sure if they infest Houston as much as they do here, but those bastards get all over the place, building massive webs that stretch across right where you walk and building them overnight, so an unsuspecting person might walk right into one and start shaking uncontrollably because you happen to be deathly afraid of spiders, and you just know that eight-legged monstrousity is somewhere, probably laying its eggs in your torso, so that its young can eat your innards and kill you. I don't like spiders.
Ya know, fade...if'n you wuzn't so picky 'bout grammar, than you could of gotten used to not washin you're hands after you use the bathroom.
even though spiders are very good - I still hate them... If I see one I try to let it go but if it is in my house or acting crazy then it gets the size 13 stomp.
Spiders scare the crap out of me, unless there are cute girls around, at which point I become the manly spider killer. I hate them with the white hot intesity of a thousand suns. Please kill all spiders on sight, I don't care how many freakin' flies they eat. DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE. And I'm pretty sure it's brown recluse. Don't let those f***ers bite you, they have been known to kill the young, elderly, and infirm.
Anybody ever eat roasted tarantula? I saw some South American (?) Indians eating the stuff... rather disturbing, but then they probably think Big Macs are nasty, too, I suppose. Anyway, spiders are creepy indeed, but nothing scares the hell out of me more than wasps or cockroaches flying at you from all angles...
After a long cruise on my dads sail boat up at Livingston I realized that for 3 hours my foot was about 6 inches from a black widow!! I used an entire can of raid on it and ended up picking up its remains and keeping them in a box. that was like 2 months ago and i still havnt gone back on the boat
