Topic title is very important. You must enter description as well. Editing to fit the forum rules. Last caution note.
Actually, it's fangs are long enough to bite us [I watch Mythbusters. ^^;;], and it's venom is not as poisonous as the black widow. They proved it by using this method to measure the venom of both the spiders (I forget what it's called) and the black widow's venom was way more poisonous than the daddy long legs. And to test the fang length, they had one of the guys have some of them on his arm until it bit him. It did. o_o

I missed the episode. I would love to see if. Who had the spider crawl on them.
A daddy Long legs is a spider for the person who said he should say wat they are
im guessing here that 'Daddy Long Legs' it's a spider? Noo ><! i would never eat one, not even if they pay me 20k dollars, im kind of aracnofobiac, but the information you share is very cool, i thinked that the black widows was the only spider that could killed us... (how ignorant sorry >,>)

My friend was bit by one and now shes mentally retarted from the poison. Thank god she didnt die tho. Thats y if a spider bites you go to a hospital even tho you eat spiders when you sleep.
The daddy long legs spider can't kill us. ^^;; And the word is arachnophobia. ^^; But on Mythbusters, shadowdemon, it was Adam who had to wait for the spider to bite him. He was freaking out, it was kind of funny. XD

The daddy long legs bit him, and I didn't see any paramedics, though I do imagine they had something ready in case that happened. They HAD done the poison venom measuring thing first though, and it found it not lethal to humans.
That trap feedbacker, garbi, summed up pretty well my thoughts after reading this thread... and Forbez, you are absolutely right. I'm sure tons of people have eaten spiders, either accidentally, or on a dare of something, and I have yet to read about a death from swallowing a daddy long legs.
As for the spiders (and I'm thinking of the cellar daddy long legs - cause that's the only ones that I've ever referred to as a daddy long legs before now) I never got near them before now, and I don't really plan to in the future. Spiders, whether or not they have or don't have venom that can hurt us are just plain gross.
But I did learn some interesting things from reading through all these posts, so I'm happy about that.
I remember reading somewhere that the average human beings swallows five to six spiders each year during their sleep. The spiders just crawl right in. (I hope I don't sleep with my mouth wide open. lol) Some people don't even consider daddy long legs as spiders because they don't look like your typical spider. Most spiders have fur on their legs, and you can see all of the eyes on its head. It really creeps me out. If I see a spider, I tend to steer clear of it or squish it. Where daddy long legs are so thin, they're almost hard to see. I don't recall, but are daddy long legs' legs set up like water bugs' legs where the knees bend the opposite way a human knee bends?

I always though that myth was wrong, I mean it just didn't make sense. Why would an animal like the Daddy long Legs be the most poisonous creature, yet it can't do anything. Absolutely no sense. Kids play with Daddy Long Legs, ripping off the legs and decapitating them. Some child was bound to eat one, I've never read in the newspaper "Child die from dangerous Daddy Long Legs".
Well basically I know this guy and I'm kinda friends with him but not that much like we
aren't the best of friends, but we get along OK. He's been going out with a girl since
christmas and they have recently been going through a rough patch, through lots of encouragement
from the outside it has been ended. Now I am pretty interested in the girl, and I reckon she kind
of is me as well. There's no real doubt that we won't hook up. It's pretty obvious.
Herein lies my question. How long should I have to wait. We did joke about her "having an affa....
The Scarlet Letter is most definitely a novel to remember. This novel brings so much to the table,
there is a little bit of mystery, deceit, evil, and so much more. The Scarlet Letter is full of
symbols, themes and motifs. To fully comprehend the novel, an individual must read it more than
once. Nathaniel Hawthorne uses very vivid imagery, yet the story unfolds quite slowly. One should
have much patience while reading this classic, though in the end one will get rewarded. The Scarlet
Letter has feeling, strength and love. What more can one ask for? There are no action sc....

F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby is much like an onion. On the surface there is the hard outer
layer, but to really understand it, one has to dig into the fresh insides. On the surface of The
Great Gatsby Fitzgerald portrays a romantic love between a man and a woman, but inside the real
meaning is much deeper. Fitzgerald depicts the 1920’s as a time of decay social and moral values,
evidence of this is the greed and the pursuit of pleasure. Jay Gatsby’s constant parties epitomized
the corruption of the American Dream as the desire for money and worldly pleasures ov....
In All Quiet on the Western Front, Erich Maria Remarque progressively shows the brutality of war
through the eyes of soldiers claiming their innocence. Remarque describes the war as a beastly
adversary to these soldiers; furthermore he depicts the killing of enemy soldiers as a game for the
Germans. Throughout the duration of the book, Paul Baumer, the main character, is portrayed as a
once innocent adult that becomes emotionally desensitized by the war. The goal of All Quiet on the
Western Front is to show how unromantic war truly is. War novels are known for emphasizin....

Case 1. I believe that to many people today have just given up on school and education. For
instance many people i know just don't try. They are perfectly capable of doing well, but they
have decided not to work. A lot of these people have given up i would say around 4-6th grade and if
it isn't dealt with quickly it becomes habit and then everything gets harder as teachers start
to label these kids and then they just get shunned from proper education. In the USA now it is very
hard to get a good job without an education at least through high school. These p....

Well, I've been doing some research about this, and some sources said that a man can only live
up to 3 days without water, very few said about 5, and one said that a man can live for a whole week
without water, then lose conscience, and live in that condition for another week while his heart and
lungs still work. What do you think? Title and Description changed. Please choose Title and

I created a tutorial the other day on how to create a private WoW server for educational purposes
and so far the link still says the same thing as when I made it which leads me to believe that the
mods have not looked at it yet. I was wondering how long it took them normally to look through
tutorials and accept them or deny them. Also if it is denied I was wondering if there is any
notice, like do they pm you or email you saying it was denied or are you just left hanging wondering
if it was denied or what you did wrong with the tutorial or how to fix it to make it so it....
I've checked a few other requests that were approved and they usually took about 3 or 4 hours.
I'd just like to know when the admins usually come on, how long it usually takes, and if
they're on leave or something. It's been about 18 hours since I posted my request. (I saw
jlhaslip's private message, but that was yesterday at 10:10 PM. I guess I'll just have to
wait and see...)....

Does anybody know of a website or application that allows you to place FREE long distance calls from
your computer to an actual phone? I remember there used to be a company called dialpad that allowed
you to do this. I don't know if they are still around though. I think they started charging for
the service. All the companies I've found require you to pay. There's gotta be a free one
somewhere. Anybody know of one?....

I would like to share my greatest love story ever. I met my girlfriend on the internet 6 years ago,
that was 30th of August 2002. Most people in my city are indulged in this so called, IRC chats
(since YM wasn't so famous back then). Me and my friends own a channel in a certain IRC server
and that's where our lives are everyday, every free time. One morning (after a whole night of
partying) before going to sleep and still sober, I visited our channel to have a bit of chat. My
ex-girlfriend was there, we greeted each other " mahal, kumusta na? (Love, how are you....
Hey folks. I've been spending some time on planning and preparation for a fairly lengthy story,
and I've now started a first draft I just thought I could share part of the beginning with you
all. Just a couple of things to note before you begin reading this: The story will be a mixture of
western and eastern story motifs. It's primarily a medieval fantasy setting and takes place in a
world where a great empire known as the Anglen Empire has taken over the kingdom of Chin. As you can
guess from their names, the two nations are loosely based on the English and....
I've been going out with this guy for about 2 years now, and for the past 1 or 2 months he was
acting a bit weird. A couple days ago he told me he didn't want to be in a relationship, he
wanted to be single, beacause he's been in serious relationships for a quite a while, so he just
wanted to have some time to himself. Well, with the help of a friend of mine and his, I found out
he's going out with this other girl, and he's been thinking about a serious relationship
with her for a while...and I don't know if he actually waited untill I was out of ....
My girlfriend, D, is moving. She's going to be moving to a small town around two hours away, and
we'll be meeting up on the weekends. This is going to be rough on our relationship, I can
already tell, but I know we can get through this. I'm seeking advice and some tips on how to
keep long distance relationships good. We both have school during the weekdays. What can I do to
keep the relationship good? I can see how seeing each other once a week can cause a lot of stress
and tension in our relationship, but there have to be good ways to prevent it? We'll b....

title, it was messing up the board. ....
Where to beginn.... me and my ex boyfriend, Chris, started out being best friends for about 2
years. off and on he liked me but i didnt try to mess around with him because my other girlfriends
like him as well. maybe a year later i couldnt help myself but to be interested in him and sooner or
later we were going out. (dont worry my friends didnt like him then) So the beginning of the
relationship it was good, we always promised we would be best friends and talked about how stupid it
was that people wouldnt even talk to eachother after couples break up. everything was f....

comletely useless... The world's largest known prime number is actually 7,816,230 digits long,
