I'd rather a cockroach than a spider honestly.....at least cockroaches aren't aggressive or sting you. They're just gross lol but not really scary. The ones that fly are scary though, mostly because they're unpredictable.
We have these scary jumping spiders here, scared the sh*t out of me when I first saw one
I was attacked by a hornet a week ago or so when walking home. It just dived on me unprovoked, probably confused by the rapidly cooling weather and was anxious or something. I had to run inside to a stairway to get rid of it.
This is a normal occurrence in spring and autumn.
Oh, and this summer I had a hornet inside, and when I couldn't get rid of it trough the balcony door, I tried to kill it. I blasted it with yesterday's paper and downed the SOB. But I couldn't find the body anywhere. I searched for it but couldn't find it. It took several hours and the hornet had taken refuge in my clothes closet, and suddenly assaulted me and stung me in the neck with its last strength. But it could barely fly, so it was an easy job for the newspaper to finish him/her off. What a resilient one that was.

Revenge of the hornet.
Forget Zika. I think the next issue here will be the Africanized killer bees.

We have those too, also we have the massive wolf spiders and these humongous spiders that make giant webs. Have one right outside my frontdoor just chilling in its web. Not really scared of spiders anymore; nor am I a scared of any insects, they just irk me out sometimes. As for wasps you will never catch me messing with one. I have seen some ginormous ones.

The Africanized killer bee has a sting no more venomous or painful than a regular European honey bee, but due to its aggressiveness they are easily set off and rather than a few bees chasing you it's the entire hive. Seen a show where a lot of people in Miami would have killer bees nesting inside there homes and they would be stuck in a room or something waiting for help.

I openly encourage spiders, especially in the back garden, so I don't knock down any big webs I see as hopefully lots of mosquitoes will get trapped in them & end up as spider food
Temple is in North Philadelphia, which is enough information for anyone familiar with it. It's a total ghetto. I never had any interest in the school. Didn't even bother visiting when I was a senior in high school, just because I knew I'd never go there. It will always suffer from being in such a horrible location.

Same, had a bunch of little spiders make webs on my tomato plants, the webs were small and the spiders didn't seem to hurt the tomatoes so I left them be to catch gnats and mosquitos.

That was one of the schools I considered attending, I recall being bombarded with mail from them.
