As long as I don’t ever wake up with a spider in my mouth, works for me! Wait… would that mean I’m not ACTUALLY a vegetarian?

This is false of course but I shall enlighten you on this fact,
did you know we consume many many insects with dried foods can food sweets also most foods consumed!
Insects are a very large intake of our diet. spiders need not wait for us to be sleep for it to be digested - believe that! they, like the insects are digested but not while sleeping only unpronounced to many of us!

It’s an urban legend that people swallow 8 spiders in their lifetime. Totally untrue. Thank god, of course.

…when I lived in Africa, a neighbor of mine (a Norwegian) had an infected and swollen big toe. There was a spiders’ egg-hatching nest under his nail, producing a lot of not-so-cute spider babies…

Don’t read this if you’re easily squicked.

There was a story in the news a while back…this kid kept hearing rice krispies popping in one ear, and he couldn’t hear anything else out of that ear…so his mom took him to the doctor, where they looked in, and saw something blocking his ear canal. So they flushed our his ear, and found two spiders, each about the size of a pencil eraser IN his ear. One was alive, and it took a second flushing to get it out. The kid got to keep them, and took them into show and tell at school the next day.

“The itsy-bitsy spider
crawled up the ear canal…”

Yeah. The ‘rice krispies’sound was caused by the spiders walking on his eardrum.
