Man, now I'm all picturing a big spiders exoskeleton being squished by a pair of cheap flip-flops. It's such a gross sound. I don't even want to imagine the mess.

It's a cleaner kill than you think. Plus, I at least (somewhat) ask forgiveness as I make my kill. Plus, the legs of the spiders usually keep the corpse easy to clean up when they curl up.

Plus, with the kind of attack I make, you hear the smack of the shoe more than the actual break of an exoskeleton like a king crab. It also kinda helps that I stun them before I make the kill (even a miss would somewhat count as a hit, provided it K.O.s the spider first).

@Jackrabbit:
I don't like when I come across a sleeping spider. Sometimes they're deceivingly huge. Little body on the floor; a curious gust of wind in their direction (blowing at them to wake them up), and watching them unfold open like a transformer. Considering the sizes we get, all I need is the Transformers unfolding noise. First the size of an Oreo cookie while asleep, upon waking up, the size of a hand.

EDIT:
Now that I think about it, I've noticed quite a few creatures you wouldn't expect actually sleep on their backs sometimes (even one of my cats does the same thing).

I had this spider PRETEND TO BE DEAD. It was all curled up in the 'legs curved inwards' dead pose they assume and as I was looking at it I spilled some water on it and it flipped out. I didn't know spiders played dead but now I'll never trust them again.

Man, now I'm reminded of the movie Arachnophobia.

Such a good movie, but I'm sure it's ruined many people's lives (including mine).

Can we please stop this talk about spiders, it doesn't make me happy at all.
*shudder*

Why... they're so nice. See, that one over there is smiling at you:

Jumping spiders are pretty much the best.  I guess that video is doubly relevant, considering what day it is.

Eehhhhhh...
Ew! Ew!
I know I'm being a complete pansy but I freak out if I see a spider that's even the size of a dime, and I can't get within 30 feet of one bigger than a quarter without feeling like I need to sit in the shower for half an hour so they can't get me.
I'm not coming back to this thread for a while just to be safe.

Good job guys now we can spread rumors about Taco Dan behind his back!

[Jakkarra]

The ending is pretty clever.

I'm not looking!

When I was up north, the girl across the hall from my room was lying down to read a book.
Then a dock spider crawled out from the front of her shirt and onto her neck.

I think the cabin across the lake heard her scream.


Makes you wonder how long that spider was under her shirt.

After another vomiting fit, I managed to drink some water and fall asleep.
I had a dream that flying jellyfish had been introduced to the world.
Also, all the cool stuff humans get in the Halo series.
After being stung by a horde of small, but practically invisible jellies, I became Jellyman.
The super awesome assassin that is totally not based on Batman.
I used weapons coated with poison made from deadly jellyfish stingers and by the time you saw me, it was too late.

I just read that Saint Valentine is the patron of not only love, but of beekeepers.  This made me think of Eddie Izzard.  Therefore, all is well.

It's bawentine's day!

Squirm in front of your girlfriend day.
