I was on my way through to the kitchen when the glint off of something outside flashed across my vision. It was seriously intense, almost left a spot in my eyes, like staring into a bright light kind of thing.. I peered past the living room to see a sliver of light shining in from the porch. I had a hunch that it was something spider-related. Considering they've been plotting my demise all summer, I wouldn't put it past them to be up to silly tricks like the old "Blind 'em and make 'em trip up" maneuver.
This required more investigation, so I immediately grabbed my camera. I was only curious, you know just had to check it out so I can say that I did. The camera was just there for chronicling my potential death. Snap a few shots off before something emerged off camera, screamed like a banshee and blocked out all light from the lens. It's a good thing I did.. I got a few shots of it's "home", and then out of nowhere (because spiders come from nowhere. They're unnatural evil things. We all know this!) it leaped out onto it's web.
Look. At. The. Size. Of. That. Thing.
I call this the guardian of the patio because I have a feeling it could capture neighborhood pets with ease. And not even for food either, just as sport.. Not to mention it's webbing alone could probably trip up any would-be burglars and/or scare the fuck out of them by having the spider APPEAR OUT OF FUCKING NOWHERE and attack their face. As spiders are apt to do..
But you know.. do you honestly think that this thing has any intention of stopping something from coming into my home? Absolutely not.. This creatures intent was to keep me inside. Luckily this spider doesn't know about my "secret' entrance known as the apartment front door. But let's keep that between you and me, eh?

No, no webs are poisonous, it's the spider which is poisonous. :P
You're probably thinking of the Sydney Funnel Web spider (which also weaves funnel webs) which are poisonous at a level dangerous to humans, but since an anti-venom was developed in... 1981 I think, no fatalities has been recorded.

Spiders are agents of Satan. Or possibly Cthulu. That's pretty much the long and short of it *nods* Especially those god-forsaken evil hideous possibly teleporting skin-crawlingly disgusting monstrosities that go by the innocuous name of "house spiders." Those things are my eternal mortal enemies and all that I come across meet horrible, crushing deaths by whatever's handy.
But yes. Spiders = evil. Except for jumping spiders. They're too cute to be evil. Maybe... chaotic neutral? Something like that...

Good god...I think my scream of terror would be louder than yours. That thing would scare the daylights out me if I had caught sight of it like you did. I've come across one that was the size of a freaking half dollar once, big fat black bodied spider...that had made its web outside my window. I opened my shade up one morning and had the giant beast looking right back at me going "Sup?" I woke the household up with my yell...
Being as terrified of them as I am, and having many nightmares involving them, I took the advice of a friend one time to look up what it might mean to have spiders in your dream. Its been a while, but I believe that the theories on dreams with spiders in them were about good fortune and good omens....
I want to know what it means when your porch and back yard are covered in giant webs with spiders the size of large frisbee's (and larger!) haunting said webs...all with the apparent intent of killing you.

"Objects in dreams may appears larger/closer than they are." ;)
Not exactly the same as a rear view mirror, but still.
Perhaps it is how your fear of them make them seem to you unconsciously?
I could tell you how spiders are predators and humans aren't on their menu (unlike parasites, like mosquitos) but it probably won't help.
As someone who was afraid of spiders before I can only recommend this: study them.
You fear what you don't know and at least for me, I discovered I was incredibly ignorant about spiders.
When I learned more about them they became something known and not scary at all.
Unless they drop onto me unannounced, but I get that reaction from insects, cats, dogs and people too. ;)
At least spiders aren't heavy enough to knock your breath out... *mutters about crazy cats jumping onto his stomach* :P

"Looks poisonous"?! Are you serious?
First of all, almost all spiders are venomous. However, only a few have a venom that is dangerous to humans.
Tarantulas for example often have very painful bites but are not lethal unless you're allergic, like with wasps. You might want/need to go to the hospital to get muscle relaxants though.
The black widow on the other hand has a venom that is dangerous to humans on a lethal level though far from every bite leads to death.
Brown recluse (south-east US), redback spider (Australia) and the sydney funnel web spider (also Australia) are others that definitely should warrant a visit to the hospital.
You can't really see if a spider is dangerous to humans unless you learn which species are dangerous, since pretty much all of them "look poisonous".

if the spider looks like a grass spider and i can reconise it as grass spider and it snot in any o fthe rooms it lives. if it look like the violin spider or brown recluse it dies. you took my poisonus spider remark to litterly. yea i know all spdiers has venom. Yet when one says poisonus spider it means the lethal kind.
That's just a little funnel web spider. These guys like to build webs across paths so they can get all in your face.
