Just be warned that if you click the link there is a giant spider.

Damn, that must've hurt the spider's feelings.

Glad to see my initial thought of “this has to be Perth” was vindicated.

So... is Perth the Florida of Australia?

I’m disappointed in the lack of a “Giant” spider after clicking the link. Quite small for Australia.
CraftyCait
To be fair, the article intro never said giant.
mikeluyten
The warning/caption from @op said giant
areweprophets
I did indeed say giant. Any size spider freaks me out though soooo....
CraftyCait
Oh okay, yeah. Because the huntsman is up top there. It never did say what kind of spider he was yelling at. I'd yell at a huntsman too haha
mikeluyten
You would yell at little ol’ Spike!? That’s Franks little cousin you know, and everyone loves Frank round these parts.

Australia is probably the last place to live when you have extreme arachnophobia

Australia was probably the CAUSE of his extreme arachnophobia.

In Australia, fear of spiders is not irrational
mikeluyten
If you check the statistics of deaths from Aussies deadliest spiders in the last 50 or so years, it’s quite irrational to fear for your life
mikeluyten
Once you get bitten by a red back or two and realise it’s no biggie, it puts the fear into perspective
