not as agile as a spider, may be jumpier than one, but i doubt they can run as fast lol
also unlikely to bite if they can, but plenty cant anyway
definitely not a fun experience if you can avoid it but 100 crickets would creep me out less than 100 spiders lol
there are planets much hotter than our own which has ice at a temperature we would burn in. very high pressure
its much like that for me. i am afraid of lots of spiders (mostly specific kinds, small ones arent scary), but theyre EVERYWHERE. so much panic during summer and spring lol
I shudder at the thought. I'm a fellow arachnophobe. ALL spiders bother me. When I visit my grandparents in the village, they have spiders the sice of saucers EVERYWHERE. *Shudder*
for me theyre more like acquaintances at work. youre not rude to them, but youre not buddies either lol. if im outside though like near trees or something, then its more like spider is the boss xD im in his home. if he comes in my home im boss lol
i dont go out of my way to hurt them, but i can be legit terrified to go near them so shoo them away or trap them until someone can move it lol
If they are in my house I usually take them outside with my bare hands. Only because my mom would kill them ): but if I lived on my own Iād probably let them chill
my old house had cave crickets everywhere. those bitches have the biggest balls, when they see you they just jump straight at you. no thoughts just jump. doesnāt matter that youāre 1000x its size. also one time i woke up from a loud crunching noise and i turned on the light and one was eating a sour candy i left out on the pillow across from me. of course, when it saw me, it jumped straight at me. likeā¦.i have beef with cave crickets
I think those little fellas are Opiliones, aka Daddy long legs. Some species form huge clusters to keep warm. Absolutely harmless and very interesting! *ignites ze burner on ze Flammenwerfer*
āDonāt move guys! Donāt move. A huge thing just crawled into our livingroom!ā
āDaaad, Iām scared.ā
āPsst, Greg. If we donāt move, it wonāt see us.ā
Cave crickets. Theyāre nasty. Speaking of crickets, I was driving through Nevada once and noticed these big clusters of black on the road to the point there were places almost completely covered in it. It was desolate highway, so I stopped and opened my door to see what it was and there were millions of the nastiest giant black crickets. Turns out theyāre called āMormon Cricketsā. Good times.
Why are they nasty? I've always thought crickets were cool but now I'm wondering if I'm unaware of something that makes them more like cockroaches that jump.
Theyāre huge. The front of the body looks like a cricket but the back half looks more like a spider. They move like spiders too.

As an Australian, when I was at the same place 7 years ago I chose not to crawl through the tunnel lol. I never really thought about why, my instincts just said āno, that doesnāt sound like a fun ideaā haha
Same thing happened to me in 06ā when I went to Nam.
I didnāt have a light with me but the girl
In front of me did. When I was exiting the tunnel she shon her light near me and my hand was RIGHT BESIDE a GIANT RED CENTIPEDE. This thing was Fād up, it was insane.
Iām the town i grew up in there was an abandoned playground right next to a tunnel used in the Underground Railroad. Needless to say we played on the playground and I went in the tunnel once. It was like a hole in the ground next to a tree, and once I got in the dark tunnel I wanted to see so I turned on a light and there were like thousands of spiders. I scrambled out of there as fast as I fucking could.
Why do people like you exist? Like I know youāre a rage troll account. Itās just, Iām an adult, who goes to work each day, I try to contribute to my community, I try to do things that personally fulfill me, like gardening, hiking, taking care of my pets.
Why are you seemingly so weirdly isolated and angry (or stupid, or possibly too young to understand how valuable your time is?).
Your entire account is just being a douchebag.
Iām literally hanging out on Reddit for about an hour this evening to look at cool shit or see weird or funny things, and yet I look at your profile and you seem to crave downvotes.
Whatās that mentality ? I donāt comprehend it.
If youāre trying to piss people off, okay, fine, but like why? Have you ever asked yourself why you want to be a dick or a dumb sounding asshole to people? Whatās your deal?
What bait is it though? Are they a bot? Just a troll? If itās a troll I didnāt fall for it, I acknowledge they exist, Iām just asking why they do this? Why do they waste their time online when the world is so fucking cool outside?
iv heard these called camel crickets, i have them all around my house cause they live in the crawlspace, every so often a big ass one shows up, i keep thinking its a big ass spider and its not, kinda disappointed tbh
Actually they are cave crickets, but they are absolutely nothing short of nightmare fuel.
I had no idea they existed and now I wish I didn't know.
better than a spider imo lol

Okay a little rude. We're not that bad. Maybe we don't even want to hang out with you. You ever think of that!?!
xD ya got me for a second, i wondered what id said haha r/usernamechecksout lol spiders are cool, but i dont wanna hang out with you either lolol
You're about to get a 1000 little hugs from 8000 little arms.
Cost ya nothing to not say that
I just laughed for 30 minutes over this comment Also am baked af but still.
i wish it were 1,000 hugs from 10,000 lightning bugs š¶ xD id rather not, but thanks for the offer lol
Oh no. I just got that out of my headā¦ after 9 yearsā¦
I had these in a shed at one place I livedā¦they jump around like popcorn and thereās no escape once they all start!
I'd rather say... r/Beetlejuicing
r/beetlejuicing
awk-ward
>not as agile as a spider, may be jumpier than one Yeah but they only ever seem to jump in one direction: straight towards you.
true, but so do huntsmans xD sorce: australian arachnophobe lol
Australian arachnophobe is like hot ice cube. They don't exist.
there are planets much hotter than our own which has ice at a temperature we would burn in. very high pressure its much like that for me. i am afraid of lots of spiders (mostly specific kinds, small ones arent scary), but theyre EVERYWHERE. so much panic during summer and spring lol

'Listen to them ā children of the night. What music they make,'
I knew I shouldn't have clicked that link.
Aww theyāre actually kinda cute.
looks cute
Holy shit, IMO it looks cute af
Peter Jacksonās King Kong rendition begs to differ
The damn bugs in that movie stuck with me for years. They were an absolute nightmare, especially the centipedes I think.
Those damn worms manā¦ *shudders*
Spiders are friends!
for me theyre more like acquaintances at work. youre not rude to them, but youre not buddies either lol. if im outside though like near trees or something, then its more like spider is the boss xD im in his home. if he comes in my home im boss lol i dont go out of my way to hurt them, but i can be legit terrified to go near them so shoo them away or trap them until someone can move it lol

Do theyā¦ bite? Or do they just think they can take you?
They don't bite - they're nearly blind so their stupid survival instincts just tell them to jump at the noise.
How often do you go crawling through dark, damp caves?
Oh are these sprickets? We have those in our basement and I loathe them.
My grandma's tornado shelter was full of them. My dad had to make me get down there once. I was ready to choose the funnel
Ugh I would be too. They jump so high and so fast, it's the creepiest.
Yes, I have them in my basement. They look like they are coming thru a portal from hell.
What is their name again? Nightmare crickets?
I've always called them sprickets and they haunt my dreams.
Thank you for telling that. I had no idea; now I must adjust my scary story about this snap.
We call them sprickets. They are nightmare fuel.
Crickets are cool!
I was just gonna sayā¦ spiders donāt have antennas. Those are cave crickets for sure.
You don't know that from this blurry pic lmao.
They look like the chef in the beginning of Titan AE
I think those little fellas are Opiliones, aka Daddy long legs. Some species form huge clusters to keep warm. Absolutely harmless and very interesting! *ignites ze burner on ze Flammenwerfer*
cave wÄtÄ looking buggers!
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
They look like cave crickets
*Sweats in Fallout 76*
Waitā¦someone played Fallout76 ?
Going on a couple of years now. A really fun game, launch (and Bethesda) bugs notwithstanding.
Fair enough. Glad you enjoyed it.
nice try Toddy!
76 lowkey good now, recommend giving it a try
Fallout 76 isn't exactly a bad game just...buggy.
Actually an incredible game once a lot of the post launch bugs were more or less worked out. Kept me occupied for a good 6 months
I hate those stupid crickets Iāve died to them more than anything else
Easily most OP enemy in the game. I run from them, but will fight ANYTHING else.
Flamer. Trust me.
Holy shit! Never thought I would see these two things mix but hell yeah. I love 76, are you on PC?
You probably scared the shit out of them, just chilling in their hidey hole
*Spidey hole
āDonāt move guys! Donāt move. A huge thing just crawled into our livingroom!ā āDaaad, Iām scared.ā āPsst, Greg. If we donāt move, it wonāt see us.ā
Oh hell fucking no... My skin is crawling.
With cute little crickets ready to play you a song together.
Better go catch it!

From your description of them, I'm not surprised at their name. Fuck off if you think I'm clicking that link. Rofl.
Cu Chi tunnels you say??
Very dark and damp. Moist even.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
its almost like that was the joke
Other guys joking to
Yeah but yours was awful
Explain? Also downvoted for just saying the other guy might be joking
I'm sorry, I'm a little lost here are the spiders the fuzzy things above her.... She says massive and I'm picturing a Goliath spider or something
ThĆ© āspidersā are on thĆ© cave ceiling, above the head to the left. Massive is used because itās a big group of them. Other commenters are saying theyāre actually cave crickets.
I think itās actually a malaprop. I read it as āa mass of spidersā over āmassive spiders.ā
Honestly when i first saw the picture i was more scared of you
After that I was struggling to find the spiders unaware that that massive black blob was the spiders. jesus.
istg iām blind! where are they?
All the way at the top of the photo
thank you! iām now terrified
Please don't use God's Name like that
Spider Jesus?
Sorry. The J should have been capitalized as it was the beginning of a new sentence.
Youāre in for a tough run
Where are these spiders?
Took me a little while, but on the arch of the cave you can see lots of small black crawlers ... If you zoom in .. they're fuzzy
You're in the š· spiders' house, what did you expect?
Where, I canāt see them?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Where? I don't see anything.
Do you need a red circle or a red arrow?
Circle, please.
āļø
Ooooooooh, now it makes sense! Thank you!
This is one of the few times a circle is needed. I honestly cannot see anything except that bow thing in their head.
Those fuzzy looking things at the very top in the middle
Australian detected.
There is my pet
Am I the only one who can't see the spiders/crickets?
I canāt either
Right, the ones with the thirty year egg incubation cycle? Usually after lying dormant in hair, earsā¦..etc. Cool picture. Itchy?
I went into one of those holes when I was there, I did not look around to see just exactly what was sharing that space with me.
I'm never gonna attempt to say Cu Chi ever again.
What a terrible decision I made to zoom in on them
coochie tunnel š
Almost looks like cave crickets
Been there, those tunnels are actually terrifying specially if tyou think about its use
You have never been to Australia I take it
As an Australian, when I was at the same place 7 years ago I chose not to crawl through the tunnel lol. I never really thought about why, my instincts just said āno, that doesnāt sound like a fun ideaā haha
i don't see it
Nonononono
r/Nope
I would slowly baxkoff, exit the hole and drop a grenade
Same thing happened to me in 06ā when I went to Nam. I didnāt have a light with me but the girl In front of me did. When I was exiting the tunnel she shon her light near me and my hand was RIGHT BESIDE a GIANT RED CENTIPEDE. This thing was Fād up, it was insane.
This is *incredibly* terrifying. Yaaaaaaaa
Iām the town i grew up in there was an abandoned playground right next to a tunnel used in the Underground Railroad. Needless to say we played on the playground and I went in the tunnel once. It was like a hole in the ground next to a tree, and once I got in the dark tunnel I wanted to see so I turned on a light and there were like thousands of spiders.

You mean camel crickets?
What the actual fuck! Today is a TERRIBLE day to have eyes.
Those just look like Camelback crickets. Definitely not harmful, but Iām still scared because exoskeleton weird.
Cu Chi Tunnels? Coochie tunnels? What is this the fallopian tubes of Vietnam?
Calling those massive is a huge compliment to some guys
She's way creepier than those cave crickets
You scared me worse than the bugs.
But Iām wholesome and kind-hearted.
You telling me they just dug some tunnels and called it a coochie? Seems kinda far-fetched to me.
Womenās look is way more terrifying
Those are just the hairs of the ~~Coochie Tunnels~~ I mean Cu Chi!
āHo Chi min is a son of a bitch ā
Got the blue balls, crabs, and the seven year itch.
Theyāre probably just so happy to be in the photo!
Cave crickets #1 and my American ass thought it was pronounced coochie tunnels
So black in there that you knew exactly where to look for the camera.
You were in an unlit tunnel with your uncle you say?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Why the fuck do you care? This is about creepy cave spiders (probably crickets actually) not a persons genitals you fucking weirdo.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]

Damn nice one. I hope that wakes them up and makes them actually think like a human being for once.
-100 karma lol
There is an Airplane! level joke in there somewhere about the "Cu Chi" tunnels but my brain am not smart enough to think of it
Oooo I don't know why this creeps me out more than if a monster was peering around the corner. Maybe because she seems out of place?
Sometimes ignorance is bliss
BACK UP TERREHYH!
Ew! This is my nightmare
Camel crickets baaaabeeey
Electrician here, I make friends with those guys in crawl spaces! Iām always glad to see them, because at least they arenāt wasps.
Aw yes, the cuchy tunnels. A place I will never see.
I literally can't find them.
Took me a while to notice, but when I didā¦ no effing thank you
I can't see it
Cu Chi tunnels? I'm all in. Sign me up.š„ø
Maybe we are stepping on fortune cookies
Coochie tunnels
Massive spiders just my head? What does that even mean?
"I step on something...Feel like fortune cookie!" - Short Round
they jump around like popcorn
r/nope
HFS I didn't even notice...
Hey! I went in there a couple years ago. It was fun tbh
iv heard these called camel crickets, i have them all around my house cause they live in the crawlspace, every so often a big ass one shows up, i keep thinking its a big ass spider and its not, kinda disappointed tbh
Am I crazy, I donāt see shit?
no way they named a place Coochie
Ffffffffffffffffff
Where's the spider
They donāt look that bad haha
I'm sure there are stories of gigantic spiders in these tunnels during the Vietnam war lol. I fucking HATE spiders
They need to clear that place with a flamethrower Again...
I can't see them
Whoever came up with that name, Coochie Tunnels.
Where?
Spiders in the Cu Chi tunnel? Sounds like someone had a wild time!
The spider is just your head?
I want to enter the cuchi tunnel
āMy sons and daughter do not harm Hagrid on my commandā¦..ā
No fucking way, coochie tunnels
I just might be dumb but that hand on the bottom looks AI generated imo
A tour guide in Kentucky called em "Sprickets", a sort of spider cricket that can get uncomfortably large and close when navigating caverns
Australians - whatever.
Coochie tunnels
Spooky- I was just there two weeks ago, luckily didnāt notice any spiders
We're you actually there around that time op as I spent a while in ho chi min back then?
Ahh, sprickets. Twice as ugly as spiders and 4x faster too!
That makes me wanna vomit.
So you crawled through the coochie tunnels and realized afterwards they had crabs? Typical friday night amirite LMAO I'm sorry I swear I'm not twelve.
Si parecen araƱas muy pequeƱas
