I will call him bluey, and he will be my bluey

Here's bluey, I found him on my garage after my daily bike ride, he is an Australian huntsman spider and he's about the size of my hand.

Looks kinda like the wolf spiders we have in Florida.

I assume you have training wheels on the back of that bike?

Cool fanny pack.

We say "bum bag" but horses for courses.

You should be careful greenwall or you might just find bluey under your pillow one night.

In Australia, if you happen to come across any animal that isn't green, you're f*cked.

KILL IT WITH FIRE

In many English-speaking countries, "fanny" is not the same portion of anatomy as we think of in the USA, and is quite a rude term.

I have always known it to mean the female reproductive organ, but I was aware that its used for bottom in the US.

That makes this band's name even more hilarious!

Inevitable, that is not a fanny pack. Seat pack, maybe.

Snake: Spiders eat bugs and mostly stay out of the way. I'd rather have a spider lurking about than a swarm of flies.

Yeah we dont kill the big ones like this, generally they just get the broomstick chase outside if they happen to come in, they are handy at taking care of pests and they are completely harmless.

Yeah I often have a few huntsman spiders in my house, they kill all the annoying as fuck summer mozzies. As far as I know the huntsman is harmless to humans.

They eat roaches. They're kind of awesome.
