Let me guess, he and the cat killed off the varmint that wuz eatin' his squash.

I don't know, Impress,...is he protecting his squash or his pussy?

If it's the pussy he needs a bigger gun.

Yuk!

Impress's pic ... When Vegetarians Go Postal.

So I'm half paying attention to my computer, and hal to the TV. And there's a commercial or a toilet cleaning product. (Umm.. lysol? I forget which one.) Anyway. The commercial helpfully informs me that bleach doesn't clean toilet stains. It simply turns them white. But it's OK, because this product has "stain-revealing dye."

Stain. Revealing. Dye.

You put dye on something. It changes the color. It .... stains.... it.

Maybe it's just me.

The dye makes the poop molecules visible.

Not a true WTF in the intended WTF spirit, but I'm wondering WTF kind of spider is in my house. Anyone here knowledgeable about such things? WTF kind of spider is this anyway?

It's a big scary one. Squish it.

A little more information might be helpful. How big? Where was it? Did it have a web?

Looks at first blush to be from the tarantula family but I need more information. Does it have two big eyes on top of several smaller ones? If it has two big ones, it is likely that it is a wolf spider, tarantulas don't have them.

definitely not a wolf spider
I agree with your initial assessment of a tarantula of some type.

My first thought - Get it OUT NOW or KILL IT

Spiders are good stuff. I am always fighting my wife and kids over killing them or not.

A large can of Raid works wonderfully well when thrown overhanded across a room directly at the spider and then screaming like a school girl for hubby to come finish the job! :eek:

Aeresol hairspray is also effective, when coupled with a lighter.
