Eek!

A couple of minutes ago:
Edda is sitting on armchair reading thesis stuff. Suddenly sees movement right on the edge of her perception. Turns head. EEEEEEEK! Big (and I really mean big, like 7cm diameter) monster-spider crawling toward Michi's shoes. Edda screams like a baby (well okay, I didn't do that, but it was close). Michi gets up, spider freezes. Michi gropes for something to catch monster with (he doesn't like spiders any more than I do but still he rescues them every time. I would just squish them), finds something and wants to put it over spider. Spider with spider-sense realizes what's going on and begins to scramble away. EEEK! But my hero :) manages to catch it and throws it out. God, I HATE spiders!

Good thing I was reading thesis stuff on armchair. Had I been sitting at my computer the thing would have been able to sneak up on us from behind. *shudder* I wonder how long it'll take before I can get myself to walk around the flat barefooted again...

Just add spiders to the list of to-be-geneticly- manipulated-exploding bugs from a few days ago. And people were worried that this gene-manipulating thing might be misused. Hah! I hate spiders.

Have you seen “eight legged freaks” already?

Very good idea. Maybe we should think about this whole exploding thing some more though. Might get a little messy after a while. So what if we manipulate their genes in such a way that they run away whenever they’re too close to humans?

Eh.. Another idea could be implosion, because i think they actually already DO run away when they’re too close to humans.

The ones I meet never do that. They always match their movement to mine. I think they do that to freak me out some more.

How about vaporizing?
