I'm deathly afraid of spiders and heights.

Uh.......

*Long pause*

Well hey there baby, how's it going? :pimp:

I'm not afraid of heights, I'm afraid of the ground.

I don't understand why people think being scared of spiders is unfounded.

because they're generally harmless and don't attack humans?

That's not true. They sneak into my room and hide in corners and wait for me ;_;

i'd rather have them in my house than these goddamn june bugs. at least spiders serve a purpose, these things just live to piss me off.

Yeah, like Black Windows and Brown Recluses.

I'm not an expert when it comes to all the spider species, I don't know which kinds are poisonous or not, so I don't care for any of them. Grandaddy Longlegs are cool though.

well, comparatively speaking even the most dangerous spiders do little damage. there's been what, 100 deaths in the past half century (and most from allergic reactions)? compared to literally thousands of deaths every year from scorpion stings.

Scorpions scare me too ;_;
