when i went to australia (mountainous area in melbourne and we got alot of spiders(big)) in 1998 with my dad and i lived with my grandparents my grandad told me about trap door spiders (i have arachnophobia btw) and he said that they live under the toilet seat and when u go to have a poo they would bite ur ass and u would die (it wasnt the thought of death that scared me just spiders on ur ass/being biten lol), everyday for the next year i lived in australia i constently checked under the toilet seat, and sometimes id be scared to check incase they jumped on me or something, ive outgrown that now, im still very scared of spiders though
