THE TRAINWRECK. Brought to you by thcfarrmer…..

These guys are cool to have around. Crab spiders. They aren't web spinners, they're hunter killers. They're also territorial. If I find one on a plant I stop the Captain Jack until it's gone.

I've had these for years

Goldenrod Crab Spider. Love these crustaceans

95% of them are stuck together mating. They stay "locked" ass to ass for 3-5 days at a time.
They swarm twice per year. Nasty lil bastards fer sure.

How do they go to work like that? They must be retired.

 

[grayoldnproud]

Never heard that, thanks that’s good!

 

[grayoldnproud]

Same exact bug, shitloads of em in the spring coinciding with the arrival of crane flies. Sometimes I find 5 or 6 of them all stuck together pulling a fuck train on each other

They’re Marchflies but we call em fuck bugs in the south and don’t dare wait for them to dry on your vehicle after driving through a swarm. You’ll need a jack hammer and sos pads to get em off.

Florida also has these gems. I call them "ninja spiders" bc that's what you turn into when you walk into their webs. The little fkrs seem to disappear when you walk into'em, thereby making you wonder if the little bastard is still on you for the rest of the day or night..... they are not aggressive but can bite humans if pressed.

edit: Oh; and they are mostly wherever there's trees and bushes and in the woods. Their favorite spot to build webs is across trails and paths and generally wherever you want to walk ; this is why you carry a "spidy stick" in the woods down there. As you walk through the brush or woods; you twirl it in front of you like a magic wand to clear the way.

Suddenly I fully understand how Stephen King dreamed up an arachnid that cross dresses as a creepy clown. Tell me I'm not the only one who sees... "IT"

Yup, but Texas and Arkansas' aren't as colorful! I have an old CB Whip antenna mounted to my 4 wheeler so it hits the webs before my face.

The whole back story on how I wound up with an internet name like "Ninja" has absolutely nothing at all to do with the crazy martial arts moves I try and make after walking face first through an orb spider web. Just saying.

Hope my bush spider comes back this year.

you know you order out to much when they answer, hello (my name)
and they say they have no delivery driver today but the owner will deliver your food.

Whenever I visit the dispensary, all the customers and bud tenders stop what they're doing and yell, "Ninja!"
