# the common house spiders here in the U.S.

# well
there's a variety in Britain, tiny ones that are full of energy and never stop running about, those lankey fuckers that run and stop when you look at them and try to push over whatever you catch them in, rather big ones that make quite a thud when they jump onto something and so on

# The common house spider in Australia
Is the one that was used in Arachnophobia. I think they shipped them in from New Zealand.

# the "common house spider in Australia"
wouldn't happen to be one of these, would it?



Between those and funnelwebs, I don't know if I will ever be able to visit Australia. EVER.

# That's the fella (a Huntsman for anyone interested).
If it's any consolation, no one has died from a funnel web bite in over 20 years.

# oh god
that IS the "common house spider" in Australia?

And I thought I was making a joke.

And funnelwebs may not have killed anyone in years, but they're still fucking ugly.

not.going.to.australia.EVER
