There were two in my bedroom, both against the wall that my bed is against. I killed one, I think, and I'm waiting for the other one to show up so I can kill it. I'm freaking out about going to sleep now because I'm afraid it (or they, if I didn't kill the other one) will bite me. I don't even know if they're poisonous.
I would worry more about snakes than spiders.
Did you know?
In a period of your lifetime, you will eat approximately 25 spiders while sleeping?
Did you know that there's probably a spider on you right now?
You're going to die in your sleep.
Fizzay, look at the patterns that run down the bodies of the spider. Then look up the patterns! *gasp*

If you see anything violin shaped, get the fuck away from it. :P
Did you know that that spider eaten while sleeping thing was a test to see how well false information would spread on the internet?

There used to be this massive (relatively speaking, this is England after all and not the Amazon) house spider living under our bath and one time I was hoovering I moved one of the bath rug things and WHAM it was under there. It was dark, so I was like 'ZOMG, is that a pair of socks or the biggest spider I've ever seen' and then it started moving at me and I was like ZOMG!!

If spiders are scared of us, why is it that they always move towards us?
Yeah, there was this spider on the floor at work that turned and challenged me when I stepped near it...

Most of the time, a spider on the floor will run from a footstep nearby... This one turned around and tried to stare me down!

I let him go as a matter of warrior's honor...lol
I've had little spiders rear up at my fingers if I'm trying to get them into a glass to suffocate release them back into the wild, which always kinda creeps me out.
THROW A BOMB IN YOUR ROOM (one of those like insect killing spray bombs, or a grenade) ITALWAYS WORKS
I've seen them. They wear gas masks. I recommend Napalm instead.
I saw a video with a guy who lives with 50,000 spiders in his house. He literally find them and puts them there. It's disgusting. When his family is eating they're crawling all over the food and crap.

I think we should clear out Canada and put all the spiders in the world there than nuke it.
Hah! I had to go looking for that video, and I believe this is what you're talking about:

I don't think I'd ever visit that guy...

That action would not only majorly piss off the Canadians, but destroy our ecosystem as well. Less spiders means more bugs like flies and mosquitos. That's why I'm always nice to spiders. ;)

I do know how useful spiders are to the ecosystem, but I hate them nonetheless.

Whenever you hate them, think about how much you hate mosquitos and fruitflies and stuff. Then think about how without spiders there would be nothing stopping them from mass-producing and being everywhere (except frosts).
