rofl. Then why do the fuckers bite you for no reason. Like when you are sleeping. (the non-deadly ones I mean).

That's true Ahnk... my bad.

And if your embarassingly afraid Hyfe, you are probably an arachnaphobic, it all depends though on your reaction physically and mentally.

They are terrified by sudden movement.

Tape yourself when you sleep. You move around a fuckload. Spiders get bucked off, crushed, and frightened to death when you roll, kick, and squirm.

Oh, and there are African trapdoor spiders that are in the 5 pound range, Hyfester. They hunt big game, like hyenas and resting cheetahs.

I dont know what it could have been, but I saw a picture of a friend of mine in Iraq holding up a spider and no joke it was the size of a bulldog easily.

I think that is what they call the Photoshop spider. Fatal to the gullible.

The camel spider. That thing is a fake, but there are large spiders just like that in desert environments. They're just

1) Trapdoor spiders, so they live beneath the earth, and when they pop out
2) They're so badass people cower in fear or
3) Pee their pants, freeze up, and die

Hence why people post fake pictures of them online. To make themselves more badass for having caught one.

I saw a pic like that the other day

I saw a picture of one the size of a cat in Newsweek or something and the caption said they were real. Believe it said they're in Iraq.

Ya, but this picture was sent to me from my friend currently fighting in Iraq via mail... how did he photoshop it?

edit: he's in it and hes the one holding the thing.

Maybe he's throwing it *at* the camera? And it just happens to look huge, because it's flailing toward the lense in line with his just thrown it arms?

...it could be!
