Yep. Definitely not a white tail. I get them regularly and they're thinner through the torso and more cigar shaped.

It looks a bit funnel web/trapdoorish to me in the second picture.

I've seen dead trapdoors upside down and they look almost exactly like that, but they don't usually end up on buildings and they might not be the only spiders that look like that when they are upside down.

The trapdoors I have infesting my backyard are more of a dirt brown colour. This one lived in a funnel shaped web. We don't get funnel webs here so mouse or black house spider were my first thoughts.

Spiders especially Huntsmen freak me out a bit but I try not to kill them. Little ones like Daddy Long Legs all fine though.

My first house used to have heaps of tiny scorpions.

Nasty little bastards!

Wow, you'd think the people defending veganism would know the difference.

I don’t know why people are so touchy about it

If you walked into a room full of people and one of them was a vegan, how could you even know which one it is?

I’m purely talking from an AFL athlete POV.

And the answer is obviously the person with a T-shirt on with the following

Honestly I don’t care. People can do what they want. I’m literally just coming at it from what’s best for an AFL footballer. We want them to get the absolute best out of themselves and I don’t believe being a vegan is the way to go.

Depends on where "here" is.

Back when I was in primary school a kid brought in a spider in a jar for show and tell. It was big, ugly and you could see its' fangs,

One of the teachers was a photographer (he had top equipment for back in the day). He sent photos to Melbourne and Sydney museums and his pictures were identified as a variety of funnel web spider. That was in the south western district of Victoria.

Those bastards are more widespread than people believe.

Even the museums initially wrote back saying that the spider could not have been found that far south. That has since been found to be wrong.

 

[Samsquanch]

Only since I joined.

Here's a conspiracy theory. How many times do you hear the AFL media use the term "tough, old campaigner"? They know man!!! They know!!

You mean, like when they say Donald Trump is a ****ing stupid campaigner?

Yeah, my missus breeds them as well. She had our three year old patting them the other night.

Their farts should smell a bit different?

LOL.

He was a good campaigner in 2016. That is how he won.

AFL media. Tim Watson does it all the time. But I've heard them all (most) do it.

Im hoping to do my bit too today for them, cheap lobster

his lobster was lovely however the prawns he had were even better, got some flatty tails as well,

It'll be the one telling everyone that they're a vegan

Oh mate........ha. All good though!

How does breeding work? Pets or profit? (or both)

One of the award winners at the Edinburgh Fringe told a joke about being vegan which was something like: ‘I became a vegan and lost 7 kilos in the first year which I thought was great, later on I realised it was mostly personality’

I have the abalone ready for Christmas day. (like every year)

Free which was a bonus!

from my experience as a chef they would be the one telling everyone else in the room they are vegan and that eating meat is bad and everyone should be vegan

i like abbs but they are pretty stong flavour, used to eat a lot f them out on diving trips to the kent group.

 

[gokangas]

I'm a crayfish denier. Too much work for bugger all tasteless meat.

Yep not for everyone and certainly I love a bit but then no more.

Yeah right, nice! I can't dive but in Tassie heaps of spots for people to collect easily.

It's not tasteless if fresh. Quite sweet actually.

If not frozen right it becomes very watery though, yes.

But yes massive pain to eat if having to do yourself

 

[Tectonic]

Pretty sure Derrick Henry from the tennessee titans is vegan.

Isn’t that an old joke.....”just wait a minute and they’d tell you“

Mostly pets. Not really any profit from it tho there is a market. It would be huge if you could ship live animals overseas. But that would be pretty messed up.

But how does that work? You must have a 100 then if not selling them! ha
