Spiders.

I have a terrible spider phobia, and have to wear something on my feet at all times or else I go crazy thinking about what could bite my toes while I'm not watching. Especially with grass. I haven't stepped on grass with bare feet or even sandals since I was a child.

Just check your shoes, most spiders hide in the day time to avoid predators, so they go in small places like shoes, and other cramped places, its only at night when your sleeping wen do they travel about.

Yeah, I know that, but socks work quite well as a buffer between skin and bugs. Still, I often use gloves to examine my shoes before I put them on.

About that gif, I saw a spider that looked exactly like that the other day in a university bathroom. He was stuck in a sink, and I turned on the faucet to drown him. Put a dab of soap in there too so that he couldn't walk on the water using surface tension.

I remember once I was getting changed, and I thought I saw a glipse of a tiny black shape coming from the ceiling. I couldn't find it, so I began to wonder where it went.

Ever had a spider stealithly landing on your head? It's not nice.

I don't know why I'm afraid of spiders, when I was a kid I used to be the most cruel person on the world to them, along with bugs.

For the record, not afraid of spiders. I respect them, because Fact Core says 85% of spiders carry deadly venom, but they don't scare me or anything.

Now roaches; that's different. Can't even see pictures of them.

Hey remember those plastic spider rings that you would buy with your tickets from the arcade? Aww yea… (they were pretty much all I could afford)

I'll find some Cockroach pictures for you later.

You're guaranteed one less lurker if you do…I'll look at the title of this thread and REMEMBER.

Lurker to this thread or lurker to anything related to me?

To the thread, really…I mean, it's not like you're a picture of a roach. Now if you were, that'd be different.

You have a cool eye.

Wheatley wrote:

Yes. It is cool.

In relation to the topic of the thread, I have one as opposed to eight. Overkill--if you ask me. Who needs 8 eyes? Who needs 2?

But, with that one eye, how is your depth-perception doing?

Wheatley wrote:

Fantastic, actually. Thanks for asking. I only bumped into three bits of space debris out of seven today.

So, how have you been lately, Wheatley?

Good! Good…nothing out of the ordinary. Still in space, waiting for rescue. Looking for a new computer. The one I'm using is…pretty old. Yeah. A dying breed.

I'm glad you're good! But I didn't think you had to use a computer to access the internet. I thought you just sorta used yourself to go on the net.

So, anyway, how's Space Core?

Ehh ermm…actually, you're half-right. I can hack my way into just about any sort of network, given the proper motivation, but the computer acts as a sort of conduit. It's a bit technical, but I can assure you a newer model would be easier to work with. This one still has the black screen with the green letters on it. And dial-up…somehow…

Space Core? Hard to say. He goes from being really excited about space to homesickness. Right now I haven't seen him about. He's chasing after a cat stuck in a pastry defecating rainbows.

I don't understand why he would want to chase such a creature. But just tell him to be careful, since I've heard that thing is headed straight towards an evil being called "TACNAYN".

Here in Ireland, all our spiders are friendly so they just help keep flies and other hygine threaten things at bay, so they are very welcome in my house!

But obviously I would't be so loving if I lived in one of your angry countries that have angry spiders.

(Just to make sure nobody misses out, the friendly and angry parts are jokes.)
