    Like this one:

    TIMU by trying to play my dad’s didgeridoo.

    TL;DR - thought I could play didgeridoo, inhaled a mouthful of spiders.

    So my dad has had this didgeridoo in the house since he visited his sister in Australia 10+ years ago. My parents wanted to go out for a walk but I decided I’d eaten too much cheese. While they were out the internet went down so I was sort of wandering around looking for something to do when I spotted the didg. I thought to myself in all these years I’ve never actually tried to play it (it’s more of a decoration and I barely take it in when I see it) and maybe it’s time. I pick it up and put it to my lips. I felt like I knew what I was doing and that it was similar to playing a trumpet and wanted to play a long, loud note.

    I take a sharp inhale and immediately feel something hit the back of my throat. I splutter really hard and a small white globular thing comes flying out and hits the floor. At first I thought it was saliva and ignored it as I had a weird sensation in my throat and mouth. It felt like tingling to start with but grew into more of a tickle on the inside of my cheeks and a bit on my gums. I glance down at the white stuff on the floor and see several baby spiders crawling out of it and in all directions.

    The second I clock what’s happened I feel something tickling my top lip and slap my mouth with my hand. I have a squished spider on my lip and instantly go into panic mode. I run into the bathroom and spit repeatedly into the sink to see crushed spider bodies and some severed legs, some of which are still attached to parts of the body and are trying to drag themselves away from the plug hole. I urge several times and then frantically swill my mouth out with water. I don’t think my mouth will ever feel normal again.

    This is something that I picture happening to @CanesGalactica or @Versicolour cuz they love spiders. :lol:

    Aww... poor spider(s). :(

    Yeah. We would never eat the spiders. It does make me wonder how many got inhaled into the lungs :open_mouth:

    If they get inhaled into the lungs, I no longer have sympathy for them.

    I'm trying to imagine how odd that must feel, having eight tiny legs scratching at your insides as they go down.

    Pretty sure your body would destroy the egg sac, so no worries. They aren't the most robust things on the planet.

    it's the legs hanging out of the mouth :o

    That spider is probably roasted (that's how you get all the hair off of em'), so at least it's crunchy like a potato chip? Not sure if that helps any.

    Cuterebra larva are disgustingly fantastic...I wonder now how do they make the breathing hole? Do they eat their way to the skin surface?

    Let's continue with the spider examples I guess, for now....

    TIFU by not checking the oven for spiders

    TL;DR - Spiders are dumb and live in ovens.

    Decided to make pizza last night. Did the usual thing - preheated the oven, got the pizza ready and popped it in. When the timer went off, my girlfriend went to get it but bent down to check if it was done. I hear her scream bloody murder and my initial thought was "Oh *kitten*, did one of the cats get into the oven?????"

    NOPE. Apparently, even though we use our oven fairly often, a sizable spider had decided to build a web at the top, by the burner. It was obviously dead, but spider webs are surprisingly resilient. Plus, it's body had burned off and detached from its legs, which were still dangling from the top of the oven.

    Even though I was pretty sure no spider bits got into our pizza (maybe some web...), she refused to eat the pizza, which is fair enough. Ordered some Indian food instead. Moral of the story? Look in your oven before you put something in!
