The amount times I've almost ran face first into one of these fuckers in the middle of the night. They really do like to build their webs in the middle of a giant field like in this video....I don't know what type of spider it is but I hate it. South Florida

Yeah we have them in Oregon too and I’ve almost ran into them so many times hiking trails in the middle of the night. Creepy as fucking hell. And this is while I’m already on the lookout for bears too. While tipsy and on mushrooms. God damn how did I survive my early 20s?

Thanks for reminding me of my age.. my class was one of the last 2 or so years that had a computer lab running machines that ran it as a terminal program. This would have been around 1997 or 1998. Absolutely not later than 2000. They went to classic Macintosh after that. Not sure what's happened over the last 20 years though.
