I hate spiders. I know they eat other bugs and all but some around my house are large enough to carry one off. No thanks!

The biggest I've come across in the UK had a 2" long body...not big by comparison with many another country but a monster in my opinion, especially in the UK

Good stuff.
I once pulled a black Labrador Retriever out of a half-filled pool, while my partner kept the other pet, a barking Rottweiler at bay. The dog would've eventually tired, and then drowned. Despite being good swimmers, this one had no way out of the in-ground pool unless someone pulled him out. I had to lie on the ground (in my uniform), reach down and grab the dog under it's front paws (armpits on a human). I'm surprised it didn't bite my face off in the process.
Instead of citing the owners, I gave them a warning and never had to return.

I generally feel good about people because generally they are good. However, the news prefers to hand you the bad people who make you generally not like people as a whole.
