      How about pseudoscorpions? One landed on my arm a few weeks ago (probably fell out of the AC ducts) and it was charmingly silly proportioned for a tiny little thing waving pincers.

        Pseudoscorpions are absolute little goofs, I agree. I’m not sure if that offsets how weird and creepy they are. It’s like I’m giggling and profoundly worried I’m seeing an alien at the same time.

      I just wanted to say thank you for the spoiler. I have arachnophobia though regular spiders only kind of weird me out unless they are like coming at me. But anything even remotely more than that and I wouldn’t be able to handle it. I choose to live my life believing scorpions are fake for example. Anyways, thanks for hiding the scary picture on the internet when you didn’t have to.

        I do have to. Doing otherwise robs you of a chance to someday gradually expose yourself to and appreciate these creatures. Or it at least needlessly ruins someone’s mood.
