NBR: Worst Fear EVERRR Happened This Morning.

TrueBeliever925 · June 2013

So normally I find this fear irrational, especially because it's never happened before... but not anymore and I will be checking EVERY single toilet I sit on from now on.

This morning I woke up and went to sit on the toilet. I felt a tickling on my butt so I lifted my cheek up and wiped it. I thought it was a hair or something. Put it back down. Felt a tickling again. Lifted it again, said "Wtf?" and wiped it again, thinking maybe it was pee trickling or something weird. Put my cheek back down. IT HAPPENS AGAIN! So I instantly get up... IT WAS A FREAKING SPIDER!

We JUST redid our bathroom last weekend (new tile floor, new toilet, painting, etc.) and I have NO idea where this thing came from. I've never seen a spider like this before either. It was small and red, but with two longer front legs. Honestly, spiders are seriously the worst. We have a TONNNN of jumping spiders outside of our house and they will occasionally make it in and those things are awful!

I will be checking under ALL toilet seats from now on. I still have the heebie jeebies. *quiver*

OMG, that is awful!! I would be beyond freaked out.

NoooooOOOOOOOooooooo! This is terrible!! You'll have to go to the bathroom armed with hairspray from now on.

Is it crazy that I knew this was a spider story before even opening the post??

O...M...G.... Seriously, awful just awful!!!

Oh god, now I'll have to check every time too!

Ew!! No thank you!!! That would have freaked me out SO bad! We just recently moved into a house and I have seen a couple of big spiders in our bathtub so I refuse to take a bath haha..

I woke my husband up and he was like "NOOOOOO!!!! That's my worst fear too!" He emailed me and told me how he's been checking all day, even just when going pee.

I feel like I have creepy crawlies all over my butt now. So gross.

ditto! I saw a spiderweb in the bathroom at one point, and I was so afraid it was waiting for me in the toilet

I really feel for you guys! Whenever I flush spiders down the toilet, I imagine them living in the septic tank, growing big and strong, until their timely return and my inevitable demise.

My thoughts exactly.

I wish I had not read this thread this morning.

WHY did I open this thread? I am going to have nightmares about this.

I do this too.. with any insects. Ticks especially. I have to flush at least three times before I can sit down. :

Oh I was so worried you were going to say it was a snake in the toilet, but the spider is just as bad! Yuck!

amarissa85 · June 2013

Ugh!!! I hate those creepy crawly 8 legged things!!!

I've actually become accustomed to the lurking snakes in our grass and on our concrete stairs. At least I would notice a snake in the toilet versus not noticing a creepy crawly spider under the toilet seat. :

...and now I will be checking the toilet all day today

This. I wish I hadn't opened this thread.

yayamag · June 2013

No! Now I'm going to be terrified to use the restroom. I'm staying with my folks until I give birth and they too just remodeled their bathroom!

I was just thinking of this the other day and about a story of a woman who got bit by a spider at an Olive Garden and I think she either got extremely sick or passed away because it was a fatal bite.

Marvel1013 · June 2013

Oh no. There was a spider and a web high up in the corner of the bathroom and I was so terrified to go in there..Seriously though, after this post I might just pee in the yard or the kitchen sink... With my luck if I lifted the toilet seat something would jump out at me

TurtleMomma · June 2013

I know we don't really have any venomous spiders in western WA, But still. Yuck!

One time I was toweling off my hair and something felt odd, so I shook the towel a bit and a HUGE wolf spider dropped out and just stood on the floor staring at me. Not even my cat would touch that monster!

lydsyjane · June 2013

I was cringing while reading this because I thought you were going to say a tick was on you. We have those by the trainloads around here in Upper Michigan, and they attach to you and are SO hard to remove. But still, I would've freaked if it was a spider even!!! eeep!!
