Surreptishus Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 Spiders aren't insects. I wouldnt mind trying an arthropod or any food considered weird by the west. Most taste is acquired anyway so i think that a perosn could trian themsleves to like anything. Those tarantulas must be quite big for there to be an appreciable amount of meat in the legs.

Darth_Schmarth Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 There was this newspaper story a while ago about a Norwegian fellow who ate a spider at a party. It had fallen off his shoulder and died, so he made a bet with someone whether he dared eating it. Well he did and threw up; he said it didn't taste much at all but those hairs the spider has on its back are poisonous, so he couldn't swallow it. Pretty gross story if you ask me; barbaric Norwegians... ^Asinus asinorum in saecula saeculorum

After that they patted it down to dust off any remaining fur. The tarantulas were normal size - they're palm sized. I watched with morbid interest how easily they twisted off the back from the silently screaming tarantulas. Spreading beauty with my katana.
Surreptishus Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 Do they feel pain? Better to kill em yourself that way you lessen the risk of pathogens. btw i think you can call it the abdomen.
Atreides Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 I thought about that but I didn't want to get mixed up with other parts like the thorax etc. Spreading beauty with my katana.
Commissar Posted January 2, 2006 Author Posted January 2, 2006 Meh. And here I was thinking you were a tough-ass veteran... The ****-blocking side effect must be somewhat of a nuisance, though. I'll give you that. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Oh-ho-ho. Anybody would be a little weirded out by waking up covered with spiderwebs. I didn't freak out, though, and I'm not the one who's scared of them now. Go back to thinking I'm tough-ass! Please! Or I'll cry! And I'm no longer mad about the ****-blocking side effect. That's why God made kitchen tables.
Commissar Posted January 2, 2006 Author Posted January 2, 2006 It appears that you seem you have an Iraqi Camel Spider living under you bed: And given that they move at 10mph, you'll see him come an go before you can bat an eyelash. So no need to worry, for you won't see a thing. Oh, and in the likely event that the mischevious fellow chomps and bites, simply wait for the cyst of the bite lump to rupture, pack it in with gauze & antibiotics (for it's too large to stitch you see), and wait for 4-6 weeks. When all's said and done, you'll be the proud owner of your very own penny sized scar! No, no my friend - there's no need to thank me...just thank the brave men and women of the US Army deployed in Iraq. "Camel Spiders - things that make you go 'noooo'!" <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'm...familiar with them, yes. Don't think they spin webs, though.
Surreptishus Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 They don't, in fact they aren't technically spiders.
thepixiesrock Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 They aren't even really real, just a myth that was made up by some guy trying to get his wifes mind off of the fact that he was cheating on her.

Surreptishus Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 cheating on her... with the dead hooker in the garage... it all makes sense now!! Commie you sly dog! you sly devilishly perverted dog!
Gabrielle Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 I'll stick with eating animal flesh and avoid bugs.
Surreptishus Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 (edited) bugs are animals, and so, by the way, am I. Edited January 2, 2006 by Surreptishus
LadyCrimson Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 I had a thought...maybe there were some spider egg sacs near the bed and they hatched, releasing hundreds of itty bitty spiders that crawled all over the bed for a couple days. “Things are as they are.

Surreptishus Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 but why did they only get him and not his wife?
Surreptishus Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 I guess thats why the mommy spider laid the eggs in his sinuses. Mystary solved! ...but now we must find out the identity of the daddy spider!!
LadyCrimson Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 That's like asking why ants take one path when there's so many other clear paths to choose from. Perhaps it was just the shortest way to where they were going, or something. Or maybe they didnt like the way his wife smelled, or the way her side of the bed's blankets were rumpled. “Things are as they are.

Lucius Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 That ritual sounds familiar, eh Gabs? DENMARK! It appears that I have not yet found a sig to replace the one about me not being banned... interesting.
Surreptishus Posted January 2, 2006 Posted January 2, 2006 Thats harsh, if the lady spider didnt like it she coulda just not called the man spider.
