Uh, not really. The last common ancestor between crabs and lobsters on the one hand, and anything we call bugs, like insects, spiders, and millipedes, on the other, certainly predates the great Cambrian explosion 550 million years ago. This means the evolutionary separation between crabs and spiders are nearly as great as that between spiders and humans.
Yeah, but saying they're great big bugs is much funnier.

Han Solo: Kid, I've flown from one side of this galaxy to the other, and I've seen a lot of strange stuff, but I've never seen *anything* to make me believe that there's one all-powerful Force controlling everything. 'Cause no mystical energy field controls *my* destiny. It's all a lot of simple tricks and nonsense.
