YES!!! And I even remember the exact moment my arachnophobia was born. I was like four years old and I found a spider the size of a dime on my bed. I screamed and ran for my parents and when they came to kill it it was gone...
Didn't sleep in my bed for a week.
I'm getting better about it, though. I killed a teensy one in my bathroom the other week, and flushed another teensy one down the shower drain when I found it in my tub. I've found so many spiders in my bathroom that it's automatic for me to scan the crack between the wall and ceiling for them when I go in there. And I've been trapped in my bathroom because of a spider over the door before.

Really? I forget that people are afraid of spiders. I find them fascinating - actually spiders and insects. They make great macro studies.
Insects, yes. Scorpions, yes. Spiders, FUCK NO!!!! Especially if they're black.
Ewww, I'm creeping myself out.

Thank you.

Spider monkeys are okay

Quote:This is probably another candidate for hiding. I just found him fascinating. Imagine going around with these things on your head:
Is it a spider? Or just a bug of some kind?
