    Another reason for me not to want to hold Ts.

    Though, I have to admit, some of them are quite ( I want to say "pretty" though I'm not sure that's the word..).....interesting.;)

    ....Interesting...fascinating....strangely attractive....magnetically creepy? LOL I think I know how you feel. I have worked hard to get over a serious fear of spiders of all sorts. T's and spiders still give me the willies, but I'm not afraid of them anymore...and anytime I'm at an expo or something, I find myself lingering over the T's...drawn to them in spite of myself.

    I do the same at pet stores/friend's w/ Ts houses...I have to check them out, but always with an apprehensve grimace.

    That's the giant vinegaroon.. it died shortly after I got it. I'm guessing it had something wrong with it.. it was WC. It ate and everything..

    Ohmygosh....I googled...and am scarred for life! :O The vinegaroon was bad enough...but I found a whole page of huge exotic, totally tricked-out bugs that I didn't even know existed. I swear I don't wanna go to sleep tonight! :spid0r: :bolt:

    This one?

    ~shivers~

    But yet again, just like the T's at the expo, I can't stop looking at it. Maybe there's hope for curing the creepies...although it doesn't feel like it.

    EDIT: :hijackd: ! Sorry!!

    Yeah, that's the page. I would consider getting a scorpion as I think they're pretty neat, and they don't creep me out like Ts do, but after seeing whipscorpions I think I've changed my mind.
