Thread: Roly poly.

  1. #1

    Default Roly poly.

    There is a spider that when chased by a Gecko, it has a heart attack. Then it can't run from the Gecko properly, so it tries to make its escape by rolling. I've heard that's not very effective. So remember, if a gecko ever chases you, an you're so scared you have a heart attack an you can't run, don't try an roll away. Unless I don't like you, in which case, ignore that advice, an roll for your life.

    I have a few questions for you: Do you think this spiders heart is especially weak, an that is why it has this trouble ? Do you think It's very fragile an scares easily, but it has a regular spider heart? Or do you think it just can't cope with stressful situations? Do you think possibly it somehow forces itself to have a heart attack as a method of suicide, because it would prefer that to getting crunched by the Gecko? Also, is there anything you find so scary, that you think if you ever encountered it, you'd have a heart attack?

    Gecko says: "You're pathetic spider". spider says: "Gaaaah!!! this could turn nasty!! I best be on meeee waaaay!!!!!!!!"

    If I ever saw some type of towering insect, I'd run away shrieking like my pants were on fire.

    I think this settles the debate once and for all that geckos are better than spiders.

    Because you think it's offensive to spiders, or you just plain hate it anyway?

    Perhaps if you pretend the spider is dancing, an the Gecko is singing a song, you might not find them so scary?

    I just thought it would seem less menacing if it was dancing, an therefore less scary.

    That poor spider. I'd murder the gecko if I saw one chasing a cute little spider.

    This thread saddens me to bits. ;__;

    You only know one. Moshy doesn't exist.

    When you stop to learn the rest of the story you'll see that the spider really deserved it. You see, the gecko was a happy gecko, strolling about, eating his bugs, and generally having a good time. One day he was hungry so he decided to go for a stroll in his favorite field and munch on some flies. As he padded through the pond and then leaped about the logs he was so happy knowing what a delicous snack was about to come his way. When he finally got to the field all was not well. Something terrible had happened. Something dark, tragic, and sinister. All the flies were gone. "What could have happened to them?" you might ask yourself. You already know what happened to them. The spider ate them! That sinister spider moved in on the field, spinning web after web, until all the flies were his to suck the juices out of. Don't think the spider planned it all by himself though. This sinister spider was a part of the bug mafia, smuggling drugs and eating flies everywhere. He had a heart attack because he was on cocaine while the gecko was chasing him. That's all I have to say about that!
