I think the daddy long legs should be extinct just for having a dumass name.

Eventually we'd only be left with 9ft tall telepathic spiders with LAZER BEAMS for eyes (just look a myxmytois(sorry, awfull spelling)).

That award goes to a certain type of sea snake.
I think I heard the most poisonous animal on earth was the poison dart frog.

I'm pretty sure it's the Poison Dart Frog too...Originally Posted by SovietDoom
I watched a special on TV a while ago and I remember distinctly them saying that the blue ringed octopus is the most poisonous....
edit: excerpts from Wiki
"The blue-ringed octopus is the size of a golf ball, but its venom is powerful enough to kill 26 human adults in minutes. There is no known antidote."
"The blue-ringed octopus is currently the most toxic known sea creature in the world."
Most toxic sea creature, so there goes the water snake and the dart frog...I wonder what the most toxic land creature is then...
The dart frog is not a sea creature, its an amphibian.
Ok, looking up stuff, there is a LOT of misinformation on things.
From what I can gather, the deadliest poison on Earth is the posion of a type of poison dart frog, however, the animal is so small that it only carries enough to kill 10 people.
Thats the problem, when it says "its venom" it isn't necessarily saying its venom in a single dose, it might mean its total venom supply.

i hate daddy long legs there was one in my room when i waws sleeping and i also hate lil lil red bugs lol
Since we are on the subject of spiders...
Here's a spider that was in my backyard a few months ago...
I have posters all over my room, and if a daddy long legs gets in, all I hear is a funny fluttering tap through the whole night as it bounces off of them. They wind me up, and they don't even bother to ly out of the open window!
Thanatos: Where do you live to get spiders like *that*?
He he lets train Micro Naked fanatics to hunt down the spiders!
^Must be living in the Jungle or something.
Spiders, mites, ticks, harvestmen, and scorpions (I like whip scorpions personally) apparently...
The real question is who needs ten legs? Crabs, shrimp and lobsters would argue against that though... damn decapods.
I know you're referring to spiders but just to inform everyone, the name has three common uses that are based in the region they're used in, it differs area to area:
- A crane fly (Tipulidae) (in U.K. English), which is an insect. In Scotland it is also called a "Janny longlegs".
- A harvestman (Opiliones) (in American English), which is an arachnid.
- A Daddy long-legs spider (several Pholcidae, but most often Pholcus phalangioides), which is a true spider.
Call it its scientific name then, in the case of the spider: Pholcus phalangioides

The ones where I live have 6 legs, one of the legs is extremely long, and I see them use it to poke things or grab a leaf before climbing to another branch. I've also seen them carrying other bugs in their mouths sometimes.
They never bite, and they are fun to play with. They just run around. I catch them by the longest leg and pick them up...
Some people are disgusted by bugs and will never do that, but once you've been to some places you aren't as disgusted by most bugs.
ie visiting Vancouver Island after a rainy day;
Just for scale, those bugs are as long as 25 cm, or 9.8 inches.
They are banana slugs, which are yellow like bananas, and the size of small bananas. Sometimes the roads are yellow with hordes of them.
Once you've been with them daddy long legs aren't so gross anymore.
They've always been annoying, but disgusting? It's hard to be disgusted with a daddy long legs.
Now Red Violins and Black Widows, that I can understand.
i know what you mean, theyre called red spider mites and they all deserve to die.lil lil red bugs
@thantos, dont be posting those pictures of spiders you'll give me a ****ing fit

Anyone know about the cicada killers?
If you don't like wasps, hornets, bees, then you REALLY won't like these guys. They nest under ground and are extremely aggressive. It ain't cool. When one flies by all of the cicadas will stop making their noise. One time when I was ~ 10 years old, me and my brother were playing in our sand box and we kept hearing this humming noise. It sounded like it was coming from in the sand so we started digging. All of the sudden this cicada killer came flying out and buzzed around us, scaring the **** out of us. Good times.

Are they the same thing as sand bees? Because sand bees are completely harmless.
