I've had enough. Those damned spiders have gone one step too far this time.
It all started very recently. I began seeing large garden spiders, the body about the size of a human thumbnail. Didn't bother me at first.
But soon, more and more began to appear. I didn't know why this was, and still don't today, but it was going to cause a nice slice of annoyance for me. I started seeing big, unsightly webs all over the place, with the unsightly beasts hanging right in the centre. I didn't want to, dare I say, touch the spiders (I don't have arachnophobia btw, I just hate the filthy creatures) and so I often resorted to ducking under webs when I came across them. I rose to the challenge eventually, and worked out a system of removing webs without harming the spider at all. But it was not enough. It got to the point where eventually every time I left the house to go to work in the morning, I had to brush past at least 3 of their annoying webs, and again when I came home. I spoke to others I know, they tell me they had the same problem. I was on the brink of having had enough, until one day I came home and discovered that my own TV, yes that's right, had a huge, disgusting web hanging right off of it.
And now, I feel locked in a The Ant and the Aardvark-esque struggle of man vs. spider. There shall only be one winner...
