    Dancing Chocobo Bugs

    NOPE tier:
    Spiders
    Moths
    Daddy Long Legs
    Mosquito Hawks

    I can tolerate if they're far away tier:
    Almost everything else

    I'll scoop up them up with my bare hands and they can crawl all over my arms and I don't give a crap because this is what happened anyway when I worked at a pet store tier:
    Crickets

    In this thread we discuss insects, arachnids, and other assorted creepy-crawlies and your thoughts and experiences with them. P.S. I told you not to play with spiders!

    I like insects and arachnids. They're cool with me. I have these tiny brown scorpions that live around the woulds where I stay. They're good people.

    You have no idea how relieved I am that I am not where you are.

    I will eat them all, especially if covered with chocolate.

    I cannot stand any arachnids or insects. None whatsoever. In our last apartment we had tons of spiders and centipedes. One was HUGE and was in our bathtub when I was about to shower. I screamed my head off and took a picture to send to our landlord so that they would spray for bugs. (fine, it may not look huge in the picture, but it was big in person to me!)

    There are too many bugs around and it's pissing me off. Pay smurfing rent at least.

    Spiders aren't insects!

    And almost no insects freak me out. In fact, I love spiders because they eat flies, and flies are ten thousand times more annoying than spiders are.

    Pfft, other countries. Just be glad the majority of your insects aren't trying to kill you.

    As long as they don't land on me unannounced then I don't really mind most insects.

    There was a spider dangling from the fridge today when I got milk for my cereal.

    NOPE.

    I don't care what you say...they're all trying to kill me. I know it. They're waiting for me to fall asleep or catch me off guard and touch me with their nasty feet and crawl in my ears or up my nose or in my mouth while I'm sleeping.

    Once they crawl in there they plan to lay eggs on your frontal lobe, so when the younglings hatch they can eat their way out through your eyes.


    Sleep well.

    smurf you for posting that video because my curiosity demanded I look, despite knowing full well what I'd find. I didn't even finish it. I got about as far as seeing the spider on the ceiling (after slowly scrolling my screen to ease myself into seeing the spider in case the video were too traumatizing) and closed the tab. Now I'll be looking over my shoulder, watching the floor and checking ceilings when I enter rooms for the rest of the day.

    Anything with fewer than 8 legs and I'm fine. I'm actually not even that afraid of scorpions, and centipedes and millipedes just weird me out a bit more than anything. The way they move is just so strange. Small spiders, say half the size of a dime or less don't really bug me too much. I'll gladly squish them with my bare hand if nothing else is around. But smurf spiders in general. I don't care if they do feed on other annoying insects, or if they're less dangerous then their scorpion brethren, they're generally big, ugly, and look pretty mean. And walking into a spiders web is a horrible feeling.
