Eeeeeeeekk! An entire office building in Chur, Switzerland, was evacuated in July 2012 because of a plastic spider. A soccer ball swept out to sea by the Japanese tsunami in March 2011 was found more than a year later- over 3000 miles away in Alaska- and returned to its owner, 16-year-old Misaki Murakami. The 65th annual Louisiana Peach Festival in Ruston, Louisiana, features in the world's largest baked peach cobbler- weighing 2251 pounds!

My mother once called for an evacuation of our house when she saw the huge plastic spider I had lost under a table. When I reached down and picked it up she nearly fainted…sorry mom :(

Good spider prank, but I probably would have died of a combination stroke/heart attack/aneurism.
And I want some of that cobbler! With vanilla ice cream!

With Halloween coming up there will be 18,000,000 plastic spiders sold and only 3,509 plastic vomit replicants sold…There seems to be a inordinate bias here,,

The spider appeared to be larger than the woman’s arm was long. Impossible. Mainly because of the arthropod spiracular breathing system, no spider (or insect) can be that large. In the Carboniferous Period, when the atmospheric oxygen level was higher, there were very big insects, but not now. (Except for certain beetles, but after all, they are the King of Insects.)-Good peach cobbler, though. But I thought Georgia was the Peach State. Still, Louisiana can make the worlds biggest pecan praline !!
