Awful taste but great execution.

Here you go:

It's not busy enough, but exists

Here in Australia I wouldn't be surprised if a bird would swoop in to take it away along with whatever body part it was attached to.

[-] scytale@lemm.ee 26 points 1 month ago

Other than someone freaking out and smacking your head reflexively, one other concern is they might smack it hard enough to rip it out of your ear.

[-] livus@kbin.social 18 points 1 month ago

Really weirded out by how many people in here are talking about hitting it, like that's a normal or okay response to a big spider on someone.

  • If it's a non fatal blow that's the best way to get a spider to bite that person.

  • If it's a fatal blow then now the person has spider guts smeared all over them.

It's just.... there's nothing good about doing that. Either flick it off or use a piece of paper to remove it.

Most people aren't talking about how they're going to calmly consider the situation and then hit the person. They're referring to the fact that by the time they notice, said individual is going to be too close for a spider that size to get anything other than a fight or flight reaction.

Buuut yes, don't go slapping things on people or something, guys. It does tend to cause more issues. If you absolutely have to hit, do more of a swat away rather than a slap into.

[-] livus@kbin.social 1 points 1 month ago

That explanation makes more sense!

I feel like people who have an uncontrollable fight or flight urge to make physical contact with potentially venomous creatures are probably slowly taking themselves out of the gene pool though.

or stab the pin into the head skin behind the ear...

[-] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 18 points 1 month ago

So how many times will he get smacked upside his head?

[-] NegativeInf@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

Every time I saw myself in the mirror I would probably give myself a concussion.

[-] Henry@lemmy.zip 17 points 1 month ago

He will get many slaps during the day….

[-] ericatty@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 month ago

I was thinking that! When I was a kid I had a mole on my neck that looked similar in size and color to a tick. At least once a year someone would try to "catch it"

Luckily more often it was serious looks and warning there was a tick on me.

In fairness, I was in the woods a lot and had to check for ticks on the regular.

But yeah, my grandma for sure would have whacked me upside the head if she saw that spider earring.

[-] irish_link@lemmy.world 13 points 1 month ago

I hate you and the 8 legged spider you rode in on. I am going to have unreasonable nightmares tonight.

Take my upvote.

[-] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 13 points 1 month ago

Do they make these for my Prince Albert?

[-] Noodle07@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Now we know where the maggots come from

Defendant: Your Honor, I was doing him a favor.

Judge: With a baseball bat?

Defendant: I was doing us all a favor.

Judge: Case dismissed!

[-] thefrankring@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

Does it attract other spiders?

[-] Regrettable_incident@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Spider fuck party in your ear drum!

[-] livus@kbin.social 6 points 1 month ago

The legs would tickle like crazy.

[-] pruwybn@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 1 month ago

Fuuuuuuck that

[-] OrnateLuna@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 month ago

Love the idea, where can I get one?

[-] Emmie@lemm.ee 4 points 1 month ago

Smack it and save the poor guy

[-] MrJameGumb@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

My immediate thought was that someone is definitely going to scream and smack him on the side of the head the first time he wears that out somewhere lol

[-] Pacmanlives@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

These would be great for Halloween!!!

[-] Draegur@lemm.ee 3 points 1 month ago

[-] vivavideri@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

I am SOBER and this gave me the W-I-L-L-I-E-S fuck

[-] NegativeLookBehind@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Good way to get the shit smacked out of you

[-] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

That’s like those Snapchat or TikTok filters that have a spider crawl across the user’s face. Too realistic to be enjoyed for most.

[-] SplashJackson@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago

i hope for sure you find it endearing

a lot of y'all might really be a-fearing

cause a spider's molesting my ear

[-] Obi@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 month ago
