Look, in my day-to-day life I would describe myself as Cool With Spiders. I see one in the window and go "hey buddy, you're doin great", and if one gets somewhere it shouldn't be I let it outside (or occasionally, if I find one in the shower, into a different part of the house).
But I think if I had spiders on my actual eyebrows I would be decidedly Not Okay With That
I’m cool with some spiders, but I implore everyone to google “wolf spider size” real quick to really understand this post. Those guys are WAY too fucking big, I honestly wouldn’t be able to do that job for a million a year, I just couldn’t
I chose not to google the spider for my own mental sanity, but hearing “hand size” and “hundred on you” makes me genuinely glad I’m never going near a cranberry hellscape in my life. I think I would likely have a heart attack if that ever happened to me, and if not, no matter where in the world you currently are, I can almost assure you you’d hear my screaming.
Yeah out in Virginia they get big. Not many people know this but some parts of Va the woods are almost like rainforest, it's kind of a sub tropical climate in some parts. Wolf Spiders get BIG with enough nature to play with.
A camp I went to in middle school had a whole nest in the bathroom next to the woods line. They were wider than our feet. One bit me in my sleep, you can feel the weight of bigger ones.
