  • Heh, my fears, huh?
    My friend just recently asked a similar question.

    Well, I have slight arachnophobia. It depends, though. If it's a small house spider, I'm fine. If it's a daddy long leg, NOPE.

    Also a bit of claustrophobia... I locked myself in my closet once to see how long I can "survive" in there... I survived, like, five minutes. I kinda got freaked out.

    There's more. Like other normal fears. My mom says I can't seperate fantasy from reality. Hint, hint.

      • I have heard that they get their venom from eating white tail spiders!

      • A spider once bit the ball of my thumb while I was camping. An area about an inch across was completely numb for nearly a year. I was surprised because I didn't think spiders could do that here in the UK.

      • Yeah this isn't actually true, it's an urban legend people chuck around without checking the facts.

        Way to contribute to spreading a silly myth, OP :P

        • yeah their extremely poisonous but can only bite you through extremely thin skin like in between figures or toes. however they don't have enough venom in their bodies to kill you but you will most likely lose the hand

          • Oh my! But, the thing about me is that I'm not afraid of tarantulas... I find them cute and adorable! I've heard that they're not poisonous.

            • All tarantulas in the wild are venomous. But you're highly unlikely to die from a bite. A bite is more akin to being stung by a wasp.

              Also, don't believe that rubbish about Daddy Longlegs being poisonous.
