The poor thing crawled around on my desk and I killed it with a drumstick. Now I feel tremendously sorry. I don't even know why I killed it.
um drumstick leg... yummy yummy dark meat? oof. Yay for killing spiders! The little ones don't bug me but hte big ones are gross. Plus, spider bites really really suck. While I appreciate that they kill and eat mosquitoes, it's winter and they can die for all I care
Yeah, I knew what kind of drum stick you were talking about. It was meant to be a joke...I've got turkey day on the brain still.
Well what about the poor trees that gave their existance for the desk and the drumstick Let me guess, metal desk .... I'm no expert on arachnids, as you can probably tell by the spelling of that word, but I don't think they live an excessively long time anyway, and your killing it likely only adverted a more painful death by a predator. This however, does not give you a valid reason to laugh or giggle. You'll have to watch TBS for that
that sucks dude. you should master the cup/piece of paper catch and release technique. it takes some practice but it's worth it.
I have to agree here. I prefer to move them outside and give them a chance at life. My vegetarian roommate would kill them without hesitation and still rag on me for using one of her forks to eat a piece of meat. Once I pointed out her hypocracy, she now comes to me to dispose of the poor arachnid. So, out to the yard it goes. BTW, this is Brian (monosphere) I forgot to log out.
I'm deathly afraid of spiders, and here on the coast there is an unbelievable variety of them. But I always let then live as long as they are not actually attacking me and trying to kill me with terror.
