An attempt to kill a large spider with a torch lighter went awry Sunday when the burning arachnid caused a Redding apartment fire that is forcing the residents to move out...read full story of awesomeness
This seems like a totally legit reaction.
I have pulled over at a used car lot and made a salesman kill a jumping spider in my car.
I also once made my 4 year old kill one on the carpet because she doesn't have arachnophobia (a circumstance for which I am extremely grateful).
I once nearly cracked the garage floor because I came up out of a weighted backsquat to see a large spider above me on the wall. I've never dropped weights that fast or that hard.
There was the time I made an elderly neighbor lady come over with her walker and kill one on the glass door.
I can only kill spiders with long range spray. If they are on the ground, and I wear my husband's shoes and scream while doing it I can step on them.
When I started this post, I planned to use pics of spiders, but couldn't bring myself to do it.
But at least I've never burned anything down.
Yet.
