If you think those little cuties are scary don't ever look up the Florida Banana Spiders.

Hey, we're not supposed to be getting new species; they're all supposed be dying out from Global Warming until it's nothing left but us and billions of hectares of aspargras and shitake mushrooms.

They look a lot like jumping spiders from other parts of the country. I've never seen one inside.

It would suck if they were about 50 pounds, two feet across, were proportionately fast and agile, and hunted in groups of five to ten.

Isn't it about time for a remake of The Incredible Shrinking Man?

After looking at the OP, I immediately thought why hasn't anyone made stuffed toys based on them. Giant ones, if it helps.

the government should ban all spiders from jumping.

while they're at it, they need to move the deer crossing sign, because those deer are really fucking annoying when they cross at that intersection.

Yeah? Move to a country without a government.

Where's that guy from Brussels?

What, what? Which country did you think I meant?

Since the government is taking away our firearms, they should at least legalize flame throwers so the American citizens can properly defend themselves from threats like spiders.

All spiders should die by fire.
