i would have to guess that you have been shot in the neck. it seems only natural for me to assume that with you Americans

i saw my cousin get shot in the ass about two years ago by his brother (my older cousin) with an air rifle after he had just been the biggest smartass all day. It was hilarious!

None of the above

It was a few years ago and i hadnt realised it was a male one (only the male are deadly). I was fighting with my father and was in a very bad bood to begin with and just was waiting for an opportunity to do something naughty.

i really dont like it when he kills the spiders in our house i much prefer he put them outside (unless of course they have the ability to paralyze then kill you in a matter of seconds)

Well i walked past just as he was about to squash him, and begged him to put it outside instead. he refused and so just as he went to whack it, i grabbed it and stuck it in my mouth before he could explain what it was.

i walked outside and let it fall from my mouth onto the path in the garden (kind of spat it out but it kept hanging onto the side of my lips with its legs). dad was in hysterics and was sure it had bitten me. he captured it in a jar and rushed me to the medical centre. but it hadnt bitten me, and i was fine. the spider was identified as the male sydney funnell web and the doctor kept the spider.

lucky!!

actually, it was #1. I used to be on the inflation crew that would inflate (not blow up) the Macy's Thanksgiving day parade balloons. This used to be done the night before Thanksgiving on two closed off streets by the museum. The weather is almost always freezing, so they have heated busses, but they also open a floor of the museum so people can go in and warm up and sleep.

A friend of mine has a better story than mine. One year it was not too cold, so he slept under a three story Snoopy balloon in the middle of 77th street.

Holy. Shit.

I have a great newfound respect for you, SunSparkz. How old were you?
