# ^^this
I want to like spiders, I really do. But I don't. In my house they are the size of dinner plates and use transporters to move around.

# House spiders like that are all harmless. They don't even bite when you pick them up.
They can move at a fair lick if they want to though, but (and this is the important part) THEY CAN'T FUCKING HURT YOU!

# You shouldn't be, because
they actually keep out the UK's only possibly deadly spider (the false widow).

# That one I am not scared off...
It's not about what they can actually do, it is a phobia based entirely on what they look like....

# Yeah, I know how it works.
I get it a bit too to be honest, big ones can make me jump. Then I feel extremely foolish and get interested in them instead. There's a house spider that's lived under my shower for years, it's got an enormous web, I call it Shelob.

# Yeah, there is a giant one at the bottom of my out side steps that lives in a hole in the roof...
I give it a wide bearth, but it can stay there in peace as far as I am concerned, it's not in my flat, and if I don't fuck with it, it will stay out side quite happy

# Oh they make me jump if I see one scuttle around without knowing what it is.

# The one whose bite they described as "painful" and hasn't killed anyone?

# Seems like there's some genetic divergence going on
like the ones on the other side of the Atlantic are dangerous and the ones in Europe aren't.
