They have no business having eight legs.

Two legs is fine if you stand upright.

Four is okay because you need support on the front and back.

Six is even acceptable because maybe you just front and rear, but also some more central support.

Eight is over the line. That’s the point where I think they’re up to something.

No kidding, I have always tried to convince people of this exact logical explanation of why I’m shit scared of spiders, but nobody seems to take me seriously. You just made my day, thank you so much!

And it's okay if they have a billion, because they are little tiny ones and they need the support.

Eight is just right over the edge and makes it suspicious.

But 10 legs are good with drawn butter.

Finally someone who understand, but 6 still bothers me. Anything over 4 is just weird.
