I concur. I'm pretty sure I would go around trying to find something to kill it with, i.e. some sort of toxic spray, a hammer, something..... Something eerie about seeing four legs pertruding from a clock or any object for that matter. Odd and sintilating at the same time.
i'd just punch the clock. really really hard.

Nah, if it was just a crappy novelty clock that I could get for five bucks, I would get a big freaking hammer and smash that thing to tiny bits. I don't care if I put a whole in the wall. I'll just buy another clock to cover it up.

I freaking hate big spiders.

I've held tarantulas and all that. I like them. They're fuzzy. I hate the slimy black spiders that are all fast and shit.

LOL, they're not even harmful. I've had plenty of them in our house (4 or 5 about that size) and we just capture them in a container and throw them back outside where they belong.

The red backs, funnel web and white tailed spiders (all which are relatively small) are the ones to be wary of. Size means nothing in terms of danger.

I have a really really bad fear of most insects, mostly Spiders and Fly's. I don't mind if they are small and doing crap all, but anything else and I'm running.

They, however are huntsman spiders. I am arachnophobic but I can tolerate them as long as it stays on the ceiling. They aren't aggressive and they eat the aggressive ones.
its funny what they do for us and how ready we are to kill them.

It is a primordial instinct to fear things like spiders, snakes, sharks, etc. Things like that could kill you, or at least certain kinds would, so it is best to fear anything that looks similar. Some people can get over that fear and things like that don't bother them, but most people are afraid of things like that. Yes spiders do really good things for people, however some spiders can kill you, and I am sure it wouldn't be too pleasant if that huntsman spider bit you, even if they aren't poisonous, it would hurt like hell.

So it is best to just be afraid and stay away from anything that looks like a spider, from a survival point of view.

Yes but size means everything in terms of pain.

I honestly don't know how people can be scared of snakes. They just sit there, unless you bother them. Very seldom do snakes ever attack someone just because. Spiders however, are known to just bite you for the hell of it, or they hide in shoes and stuff. I know snakes can hide in the same way, but it's more rare.

Plus snakes are just badass.

Because you can easily walk through the woods and step on one unknowingly, then it would attach you because you bothered it.

Exactly. I've almost stepped on a few rattlers(mojave rattlers too) where I live, and let me tell you, it will make your heart pound having a close encounter with something that can end your life. Not to mention the tens of thousands of dollars in hospital bills you can rack up.

The Mojave rattler

https://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f218/Volatile_Squirrel/mojave_rattlesnake_sml.jpg

Some Mojave rattlesnakes are greenish, but can be colored greenish gray, olive-green, or occasionally brownish or yellowish.

This rattlesnake has a very potent venom which is considered ten times more toxic than other North American rattlesnakes, a fact that makes the Mojave rattlesnake one of the most dangerous poisonous snakes in the United States. Their venom works as a neurotoxin and is called Mojave toxin. Strangely, the bite of a Mojave Rattlesnake is usually not as painful as other rattlesnake bites.
