      If they are invisible what is to be afraid of now? Ain’t the only reason we’re afraid of them cause they look horrible?

        Well, enjoy the tickling sensation on your face when you’re in bed. You can’t see what it is so you should be fine.

          You know “the average person eats 8 spiders per year in their sleep” urban legend? It’s sort of true, most people don’t eat any but there’s one guy named Rick in Columbus who eats thousands so the numbers are skewed.

            Apparently that was a social experiment to see how many people would believe it.

            Which is kinda fucked cause it messed me up when I was too young to understand that adults don’t always know what they’re talking about. For years, I would go to bed with the top sheet wrapped over my mouth so spiders couldn’t get in. For some asshole’s social experiment.
