Inky dinky spider went up the waterspout.
Down came the rain and washed the spider out.
Out came the sun and dried up all the rain
And the inky dinky spider went up the spout again.
@Yukoner* Interesting that you say, “Inky dinky spider.” I learned it as “Itsy bitsy spider”; but, when I was working in a book store, I was the only one who could find a children’s book on the computer, as the book version was “Eency weency spider.” Ah, the joys of folk lore!
I can only surmise that it’s a cross between the “brown recluse spider,” one of the more deadly spiders, and Kevin Costner, who has been in some form of seclusion since his drunk driving arrest.

Too bad the fat broad doesn’t dislike spiders like she dislikes snakes. The spiders wouldn’t stand a chance if she did.

might also have something to do with Costner’s tendency towards unnecessarily long movies.

Looks vaguely like a human form “drawn” in the web.
