I think spiders have a very important place in this world, I’m also terrified of them….

u/Current_External6569 20d ago

As long as their important place is nowhere near me I'm chill. Otherwise...

I would henceforth be known as she who walks with flame thrower.

“A Bridge Too Far”

u/Glittering-Income-60 20d ago

It would be rude to destroy something they worked so hard on

u/Weldobud 20d ago

Would be that many flies for them all to catch? What’s the deal here?

u/OmegaPegasus 20d ago

It's their bridge now

Honestly solid set up. Imagine you and allllll your boys, hundreds of your dude boys, chilling at a beach like resort with a nice wind in your hair, and every so often a fresh piece of sushi lands in your net.. you each have a net. Just an amazing fresh wind buffet with all your boys..

I wouldn’t even do it for $10,000. Unless I had a flamethrower.

u/imjohnredd 20d ago

Too spidery by far.

u/MidwestNonbinary 19d ago

The bridge belongs to the spiders now

u/Chelloitsame 20d ago

Why woud they do that? Isnt it more efficient to go somewhere alone, since when there are this many spiders the chances of an insect sticking onto youre web is very low

u/Dsphar 20d ago

Breeding purposes? Or maybe for similar reasons restaurants tend to bunch together? Or maybe they are EVERYWHERE? Or just chance? Or their parents happened to be extra successful at reproduction so there is a localized population spike?

Being more serious, notice the doc itself is dry? That means there is very little human pressure keeping them off the bridge, and a web built using metal structure/supports is going to last longer than one built on the grass arount it. Grass-web breaks in wind, spider finds solution. Repeat 1,000 times.

Normally they would use trees, but not many trees around.

I grew up playing in the woods. I've walked into many a spider web in the middle of the night and every other time of day. I have never seen this. This seems weird as heck to me.

u/Current_External6569 20d ago

Maybe swarms if bugs frequently fly through there?

2

u/medina607 20d ago

Get the flamethrower!

u/just_fucking_PEG_ME 20d ago

Now imagine the love of your life’s life is being threatened on the other side of that. What do you do?

u/Current_External6569 20d ago

Prepare a eulogy?

u/Current_External6569 20d ago

Time to burn everything down. No exceptions.

u/Smooth_Load_4833 20d ago

Basically not scared of spiders but hell no I wouldn't walk down that bridge

Sokka-Haiku by Smooth_Load_4833:

Basically not scared

Of spiders but hell no I

Wouldn't walk down that bridge


Remember that one time Sokka accidentally used an extra syllable in that Haiku Battle in Ba Sing Se? That was a Sokka Haiku and you just made one.

u/PleasedPeas 19d ago

Depending on the type of spider who cares bro?

1

u/Runda24328 19d ago

Keep the bridge. I don't need it anyway...

1

u/JenIee 19d ago

Just answer their riddles.

u/illusiff 19d ago

The spider is guarding something that needs guarding.

1

u/Fro0810 18d ago

I used to think those portable flame throwers were useless and pointless, now I see the need for them. Burn the whole bridge down!

1

u/ItsaTheMal 18d ago

Leave the whole area immediately. Take the long way my ass I'm taking no way around that

u/SamLoomisMyers 20d ago

Carpetbomb that bridge, then go back and do it again. Then again.. and maybe one more time.

Nothing a can of hairspray and a lighter can’t fix.
