Was Bitten by a Spider

[Adam West]

I think I would have it checked out just to be safe.

It didn't bite you but laid it's eggs in your head. A few weeks from now the whelps will burst open with hundreds of litle spiders pouring out of it. Ok, maybe it's an old wise tale but something to think about

Actually, I read a story a few months ago about a lady that went on vacation to this third world country,(some vacation destination), and a few weeks later the family had her committed cuz she was going nuts saying she heard things all the time. They did a brain scan on her and lo and behold, they saw a bunch of little things movin around. Seems something had bitten her and laid eggs under the skin on the back of her head, and they had hatched and were moving around, and only she could "hear" it. That is pretty nasty. Time to call the Orkin Man.

Did the spider look anything like this?

Then you'll probably start looking like this soon:

After that, you're pretty much screwed.

That guy picture's hilarious

I used to freak out over big Huntsmen spiders here in Oz when I was a kid (I think they are the same as a brown recluse?), they often have a width of 10-12 cms (4 inches) across, brown, hairy and move fast.

Now when I find one scurrying up the inside of my car windscreen I squash it with the bottom of my fist.

I think I've been bitten a couple of times, it's a red itchy spot like a big mozzie bite, but goes away after a few days.

Sowth, it's stories of the funnel web spider that keep me from wanting to visit the glorious land of Oz. Terrifying. Then again, in Texas we have brown recluses, black widows, and 4 venomous snakes, so who am I to judge???
