I consider myself an arachnophobiac in recovery. I didn't have any trace of arachnophobia until a played Dark Messiah Of Might And Magick. Search for it on youtube if you got the balls. I don't think i were ever scared of the real ones though unless they were huge and creeping up my leg or something. It's the pictures i've been scared of. After a while i forced myself to look at them and today i'm simply a bit unnerved by the most uncanny ones.
Thanks for the pics people

Not especially. Probably because I live VERY far away from our friend, the Funnel Web. That thread was terrifying.
Spiders don't necessarily scare me or anything I just hate having them in my room especially considering the area I live in is prone to Brown Recluse (plural?) spiders and I don't want to spend a few nights in the hospital with a huge purple bruise on my back. I've already had multiple spider bites and they hurt quite a bit.
Every once in awhile I get a large spider living in the crack in my wall. Not that it bothers me but i give them a good thwack whenever they're out and vulnerable.

My mother is seriously arachnophobic to the point of panic attacks and fainting. Because of that my brother and I always had to rush over and kill them, so I think the idea of constantly killing them before my mother saw them really threw out any kind of fear we might have had of them. That's not to say I would enjoy one crawling on me though.
Yuck, I know that feeling. A few weeks ago I rolled over in bed and opened my eyes to see one of those fuckers crawling towards my face. SO pissed, because you can never get back to sleep after something like that. You always feel like something is crawling on you.Frankydee said:
I kill them. Also, I kill moths and crane flies. It just freak me the fu** out to get them in my face.Cuniculus said:

OT; not scared of spiders but some of the larger ones can make me jump, had to look after a tarantula at my work experience and once when I was feeding it, it jumped at the food and that made my heart jump if nothing else.
On a spider related theme, In out common room a bunch of girls (who were scared of spiders) were all on their chairs since one had scurried in. I walked all over macho and brave, picked up the little guy, let him run over my fingers and went to throw him out the window. The window was closed so I essentially just hit my hands into glass. Lost all cool points there and then and had to sheepily toss him out the next window
I like spiders unless they startle me, then they get squished and then, I feel bad. Spiders are pretty and nice to have around the garden. My favorite are jumping spiders they have adorable faces and, I love watching them stalk their prey.
