No. I hate spiders. My reaction would probably be a liberal use of flamethrowers, then fall back to a nearby ridge and shell the area with napalm and thermite rounds.

There might be several thousand spider webs in my yard any given morning, but one thing for sure is they are social to the extent of carefully avoiding each other.

I don’t enjoy having a spider crawl on me, but mosquitoes are downright dangerous. Therefore, unless I identify a particular spider as being a member of one of the two venomous North American species (i.e. the Brown recluse or Black Widow), I escort spiders outside instead of killing them when I encounter them in my home.
Spiders are creepy (and, to my eye, unattractive), but they perform a useful function: killing mosquitoes. Mosquitoes kill far more people every year than do spiders. Anything that eats mosquitoes is on my team.

“...There are times you can literally hear the screech of millions of

Obviously, this is the work of Conan The Spider.

Is anybody sure this isn’t the work of *one* spider? We are talking about Texas...

I have had a lot more spiders and big webs on my ranch than usual.
Could it be that the wet weather has increased the spider population or......
Their Mothership has landed and they are in the process of building an infrastructure that will allow them to take over da Vorld?
