there's a spider in my basket of clothes and he's disappeared.
and I'm too scared to pick it up in case he launches himself onto my arm to attack me. What do I do? I can't spray my clothes with bug killer cos then I'll have to wash them again....

edit:
I FOUND HIM. He was hiding on the wood skirting board by the cupboard so I couldn't see him. BUT I GOT HIM. And now I can rest assured he won't crawl into my mouth while I'm asleep.

Your spiders are different to our spiders.
British spiders know who the boss is.

admittedly, this is a very large daddy long legs,
but I'm still more then a bit terrified of him because I hate the way they feel when they try to run up my arm.

Daddy Long Legs are okay.
They are dead easy to catch in your hands, then you can throw them out of the window without hurting them.
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Mon 28 Mar 2011, 22:48, Reply)

they'll only attack you if you rudely interrupt them
so approach the basket, clear your throat, then introduce yourself and tell it a few interesting things about your day so far.

Two sticks
one to poke the clothes, and one to bash the first stick if he runs up it.

No. Somewhat unsurprisingly, I've yet to father any kids.
I did fancy the idea for a while, then I started to spend a bit of time with my sisters kids, and lovely though they are, being able to hand them back is a wonderful.

Has uni life settled down now and is it better than when it started?

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Mon 28 Mar 2011, 23:18, Reply)

if by settle down you mean is it quieter? well yes but only between monday and wednesday, and then friday night.
but people are realising that work needs to be done, which is good.
and it's better in that people are talking to each other, which is nice. I've spoken to two different people and it's not even 9:30. *prouds*

dump your clothes out on the floor and step all over them
You'll probably kill it. Eventually.

Here's a gross story for you, had a bff when I was a kid and her family was dirty and they had roaches and any other jungle bug you could think of and I slept over one night and found a crushed bug in my ear the next morning.
