Look at what you guys did, I logged onto this thread, and a big spider just came crawling along my floor. I threw Stan Cohen's 'States of Denial' at it and its dead. I wanted to say "deny this, fucker" but I held back as its not 1989.
I was going to say, "SAVE her," but that was before I finished reading your post. I can almost guarantee that you have murdered a pregnant female who has spent her last days creating the contents of an eggsack to be divined in her own image, which was developed directly from her own bodily resources, one other annoying insect at a time. She was in preparation for extending her delicate genes into the next generation of insect devouring spiderkind.
I would reven welg upon you a world without spiders, even though you have just haplessly murdered the most promising of the species
If you experience insect problems in the coming year, remember this day. Hope that your curse is shortlived.
