    But that doesn’t make sense. Yes, the dose makes the poison. But by that standard everything is poisounus, even freaking water.

    You are stretching the word beyond it’s meaning. You could easily eat an entire bowl of common spiders around your house with no ill effects. Not sure what happens if you eat a bowl of Atrax robustus, but apperently no one was yet stupid enough to try it, so we don’t know.

    So stop spreading shit that isn’t true. Please.

      Water isn’t poisonous. It’s a colloquialism. Drinking large quantities of water WILL kill you, because it will (again, a colloquialism) “wash out your electrolytes, thus introducing electrolytic imbalance to the organism”.

      Also, please stop making idiotic and potentially harmful claims that you can eat a bowl of spiders. Or, if you’re absolutely adamant that it’s true, please provide photos of you doing so.

      Until I see a photo, or a recording of you eating a bowl of spiders, you’ll get no response of me. No distractions, no avoidance, no cheap dirty tricks. Put your money where your mouth is.
