Spiders, cockroaches and other creepy crawlies scare the British more than the threat of a terrorist attack, suggests an opinion poll released on Monday by a Hollywood studio. The poll of 1000 adults, conducted at 65 locations around the nation put insects at the top of Britain's most feared list followed by the spectre of a terrorist strike. Snakes came third in the fright stakes followed by heights and death. Others in the list were visit to the dentist, needles and injections, public speaking & debt.

euch - the scientific analysis 
They don't really bother me, but that said I'd rather not have a spider waiting for me above my bed. |

If theres a spider on my bedroom ceiling (i think they congregate there, the little blighters) i have to cup-->paper-->window it before i can go to bed.
EDIT: Hey is the correct term on the ceiling or under the ceiling??

Anything with that amount of legs is just wrong.

I think spiders are kinda cute! I quite like them, and don't understand what's so scary about them (apart from the poisonous ones, of course!)
