EEeeeeeeeek!

Australia is known around the world for its large and deadly creepy crawlies, but even locals have been shocked by the size of the giant venomous spiders that have invaded an Outback town in Queensland.

Scores of eastern tarantulas, which are known as "bird-eating spiders" and can grow larger than the palm of a man's hand, have begun crawling out from gardens and venturing into public spaces in Bowen, a coastal town about 700 miles northwest of Brisbane.

I think God hates Australia. What more proof do you need than all the huge-ass spiders?:cry:

I've always been amused that the second most poisonous snake in the world resides in Australia and is called the common brown snake.

I actually don't have a problem with spiders, I would keep the bigger ones as pets when I was a kid.

That's not too bad. I remember I saw a spider bigger than my head. Almost like those head hopper in the movie Aliens. The web was across two trees and the I see every single thread clearly. That was rather scary. No one do anything to it because it is in a national park.magicalclick
Whats next?

Well not quite as the poisonous variety of the "Daddy Long Legs" spiders are unable to penetrate the flesh of a human so the only way their poison could hurt you is if you were to milk a bunch of them and inject it into your body. The Brown Recluse on the other hand....

No. they are dark elves in the picture,the creature with tentacles coming off its face is a mindflayer. D&D pretty much, I think the picture itself is probably forgotten realms. Mix it with Lord Daemon and Xaos's humor and instant win for a D&D geek like me.
