GAAAAAAAAAAH. Spiders!

Mar 13, 2009 22:19

So I got bitten by a mildly venomous spider yesterday, according to my school clinic.

This is extremely unpleasant. I have a large welt at my hairline, and I'm feeling sick, dizzy, and achy.

And GAAAAAAAAAAAH. Spiders.

Just sayin'.

Any super powers yet? maverick_weirdo March 14 2009, 02:47:42 UTC

I hope the swelling goes down soon.

Super powers would almost make this worthwhile.

not the first time this has happened, if I remember correctly. This happened back at school once, as I recall.

This is the third time I have been bitten by this exact type of spider. The first was in high school, yes (though I'd forgotten about that one until you mentioned it). The second was a couple of years ago, in the waiting room of a car dealership.

Fortunately, fiddlebacks are only mildly poisonous.

I don't know what it is about you and invertebrates.

GAAAAAAAH!

Gah. Of all things.

(Respectfully not using my Spider-Man icon.)

Hellblazer instead. Great.

I was wondering if anyone was going to use a Spider-Man icon. thespooniest has already offered to build me web-shooters. :)

...

He can do that?

Just make sure you have good, strong arms before you go web-slinging, otherwise we're talking about serious dislocation.

the shooters are trivial. it's the high-tensile-strength, instant-hardening-in-air web that's difficult.
