I am so scared of spiders it is unbelievable. Well, I was at least. Before I moved out I lived in my parents basement for a year or two (after 16 years upstairs), and by then I just kind of got accustomed to dealing with them.

Right now I am neutral. Prior to that I was deathly afraid.

I was bitten by a black widow spider in my crib as a baby. At least, that's what my mom tells me.

Me and a couple of my traveling buddies encountered a gigantic spider in the bathroom of a beach hut we were staying in in Thailand. Hilarity ensued.

I used to spend the night at a buddy's house, and he'd show me the glue traps they had along the walls and there'd be like 10 Brown Recluse spiders stuck on them. Then he told me I was sleeping on the floor...

I get tons of wolf spiders in my truck during the summer, it's a total pain. And when I'd have to deal with them in the basement of my Fathers house back when I slept there. I'd wake up in the middle of the night with stuff crawling on me. Either a wolf spider or a cricket. One time I woke up with something crawling in my mouth, and a wolf spider had crawled into my mouth and I proceeded to bite it, that was really gross.
