Trigger warning: Not for arachnophobes.

For the last four consecutive evenings, I have been summoned to do
battle with one of these big guys. Leg span 3.25 inches (8.25 cm). Now,
you may think that he is a common Giant House Spider. But I have it on
good authority that he and his comrades in terror were radioactively
mutated to giant size in a top secret North Korean nuclear facility, and
their venom laced with the horrific mind-control element
Kimjongunium-117. They were then smuggled into the south and sent to the
U.S. in a Hyundai shipping container. All this being a nefarious plot to
turn us into mindless zombie commie followers of the chubby-cheeked
dictator.
After doing my photographer's duty, I was required to do my husbandly
duty: I whacked him. In "The Sopranos" sense.
