Well, I still think it would really suck if some crazy scientist genetically altered Daddy Long Legs "spiders" to have stronger fangs, cause then we would be royally screwed.

Fun Fact

For those of you who don't know, the Daddy Long Legs is far more deadly then a Brazilian Wandering Spider, it just has no capability of breaking human flesh with its weak little fangs. That certainly doesn't put me at ease when I'm hauling around firewood at campouts and hundreds of those little bastards start scurrying everywhere.

Nope, daddy long-legs are spiders and therefore arachnids. Scorpions are arachnids too.

That sounds like a Scorpion-itarian movement, like "Just remember, they may be small, but scorpions are arachnids too."

Actually, they are not spiders. This is because they only have one body segment, and spiders, as a general rule, have two. I have no clue what they actually are, but spiders they aint.

Yeh, they make like, really messy webs that have no real structure. They burn well though. When you see what people call "cobwebs" its usually daddy-long-legs webs.

Theyre really fuckin small. If you got close enough to see them the spider would crawl up the inside of your nose and plant eggs inside your head and then theyd all hatch and....*
