I hate spiders.

I was reading an article about spiders today, and saw many disturbing images (some of which I've included here for your enjoyment).


Not only do I hate spiders in person, but just looking at spiders on the internet creeps me out. I get physically uncomfortable when I see them, especially if they're moving. I don't know what it is, but they freak me the hell out. The way they move. The way they look, with their creepy little eyes. Their skinny, jointed legs with no feet. Their fangs. Their bulbous abdomens. Their webs. Etc., etc., etc. I know they can't really hurt me (most of them), but that's of little consolation to me. The heebiejeebies overcome my brain's logic.

Other insects don't bother me. It's just the arachnids. I'm cool with everything else too. Snakes, alligators, lizards, lions, bears, pterodactyls, dragons...they don't bother me in the least. It's just these little f-ing eight legged bastards that bother me. Damn you, spiders. Damn you all, for making me recoil and cringe like a homeless person being offered a job application.
