  • Small ones? Fine. Small fast ones? Fine, but unnerving. Big ones? Don't think that I can't see you. Big slow ones? For the love of all things pizza, please stay the heck away. Big fast ones? WHY.

    • I love them unless they’re on my person or in extremely close and uncontrolled proximity. However that’s mainly because we have several dangerous species here and I don’t want to die before hitting age 100. [spoiler]Sorry, all out of salt.[/spoiler]

      Often times, people are scared of spiders (or anything, really) because of a negative experience earlier in life. A lot of fears are conditioned.

      • They used to not be too bad for me, up until I saw a massive cat spider. Now I avoid them like the plague.

      • Because your parent or parents taught you that they are. Most spiders will run into a box if you place it on the floor in front of them and you can just put them outside. No need to kill them.

        • Most people are scared of the eyes and fangs more than the legs. I don't have arachnophobia but there are certain types of spiders that will unnerve me due to their eyes.

        • They’re fast, silent, can come at you from all angles, and are some times very hard to see. Basically, they’re 8-legged ninjas. Who wouldn’t find them scary?

              • When I was a child, sometime in the month of October, my dad would have a creepy spider stuffed thing attack me or my sister, as a joke. I was between the ages of 4 and 7 throughout. When a big black hairy spider with long legs comes jumping out of the darkness onto your face, and you’re a 5 year old child, you’d be scared too.

              • Spiders are scary because your parents didn't get you a pet tarantula when you were little. This also applies to scorpions and snakes.

                • Myst3riousGam3r hit it pretty spot on. I personally just don’t like spiders on me or in my house. [spoiler]I like those itty bitty fuzzy spiders, though. I find them adorable, and even if you get bitten it only itches.[/spoiler]
