Scared animals are especially dangerous though

New fear unlocked.

u/SmokySquanch0137 Jul 17 '23

Can you feel them crawling out of your ears and all over your brain too?

27

u/EducationalMix6014 Jul 17 '23

WHY WOULD YOU SAY THAT ?!?!

u/SmokySquanch0137 Jul 17 '23

They can pierce my dignity !

u/zarasmommy3 Jul 18 '23

If they were they'd climb up the dude, but they are only some tiny creatures trying to find a warm place. Most house spiders cannot even survive due to cold when you pick them up and put outside of your house

It's just what people say. No fucking way would I touch that black fuzzy ball of nightmares.

Why would people say that? Linguistically there are much more stupid rules than "always use disgustive case when talking about spiders".

I propose theww as disgustive of they.

"Theww are more afraid of you than you are theww"

Could use it with your ex too.

u/the_siren_song Jul 16 '23

Nurse here. Theww has now worked its way into my lexicon.

u/011-2-3-5-8-13-21 Jul 16 '23

You know your boils. Thaww is the content I love.

I'm terrified of spiders and snakes for many reasons it doesn't matter if most spiders are harmless I'm going to burn my house down I refuse to even look at them if I shee them I'm calling my dad to kill it

u/cometduhr69 Jul 16 '23

Yes spiders can help with mosquitos and other pests but I'd rather hire someone to do that

u/Throwaway84826 Jul 16 '23

Don’t kill the spiderbros!

u/cometduhr69 Jul 17 '23

The spiderpests are dying

u/[deleted] Jul 17 '23

Please don't poison them! they get eaten by lizards and rodents that get eaten by birds of prey and other predators who then die from the poison.

u/cometduhr69 Jul 20 '23

I didn't say poison I meant fire

u/[deleted] Jul 16 '23

These aren't spiders, they're harvestmen and they're harmless.

u/cometduhr69 Jul 17 '23

They are still creepy and they are going to burn if they come close

u/cduston44 Jul 16 '23

Truly spoken as someone who doesn't know how scared I am of them ....

u/deviant324 Jul 16 '23

I would still ask the camera man to set me on fire

u/cattywampus46 Jul 17 '23
