Today, I saw a spider in my bathtub, so instead of killing it, i decided to bring my dog inside the bathroom to kill the spider for me. Turns out that the spider was a black widow, and my dog was bit. The dog killed the spider. The spider killed my dog. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I learned that my big, tough, strong dog is terrified of spiders when he jumped, knocked over a table, and then peed on the spider to drown it. FML
Today, I tried to have a relaxing soak in the tub. The giant wolf spider that was already in the tub didn't like me trying to set it free outside. It ran right across my feet and back into my house when I dumped it out of a cup outside. I screamed like a little girl. FML
Today, I saw a huge wolf spider in my room. It ran off and hid before I could kill it, but after two hours looking for it then giving up, I finally found it, with my foot, as I put on my shoes. FML
Today, I saw a spider crawling on the floor but had nothing to kill it with and it hid somewhere. So, I got dressed and went out and come home for a shower, and as I'm taking off my undies, something crushed and black fell out. It was the spider and he had been in my underwear the entire day. FML
Today, we found a tarantula type spider in our shed so big it could only have been someone’s escaped pet. This thing was so big, even my husband said, "NOPE!" In the end, we used our neighbour's crossbow to kill, it because I think it grew that big by eating dogs and small horses. FML
Today, I found a big spider on my wall. I have arachnophobia, and I was trying to kill it with my shoe. I pulled back and hit myself in the face, causing me to fall backwards. The spider is still alive somewhere in my house. FML
Today, I found the same spider which I had let live yesterday hidden in my bath towel. I didn't find it until it was smeared on my face. FML
Today, I asked my husband to deal with the very large spider in our kitchen. Rather than a newspaper or a slipper, he went after it with an aerosol can and a lighter. The spider is now dead, but so are the wall and cupboards in my kitchen. FML
Today, I saw a big, black spider on the floor of my bathroom. I promptly jumped up on the toilet seat, slipped off, and slammed my head against the wall. The best part? It was a tuft of my hair. FML
Today, I spotted a huge spider in my bedroom. I freaked out at first, but I managed to confront my arachnophobia and killed it with a book. I was ecstatic and went to tell my boyfriend. By the time I returned to my room, the "dead" spider had vanished. Now I'm too scared to sleep. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

#12 - Spiders have small 'hooks' at the end of their legs and if you try to flush them away it's possible they'll just keep themself stuck on the borders of the sink hole. When it's safe; they then just crawl back into the tub...

I really hope this is a lie, because if it isn't, then someone out there is really stupid. The spider was in the shower. Why not just turn on the water? and #143 ftw- for the win

You're a horrible person. I wish it was you who died. Jesus, you could have gotten a shoe or something and killed it. Then an innocent dog wouldn't have gotten killed. Grow up. #143, FTW stands for For The Win :)

#141 Ok I'm terrified of spiders too; that doesn't mean I don't know what they look like. I don't educate myself in "spider science" either.. but I'm pretty sure most of us.. 99.9% of us.. at least learned the basics about what a poisonous spider looks like in elementary school. On another note, #141... STOP using your cat to kill spiders!!! YOU JUST SAID you have no clue what a black widow looks like... so what makes you think you won't kill your cat? Or do you just not care...

I hope the spider bit you and you're now dead.

I give you no sympathy. You could have just taken the shower top and washed it down the tub. :/

This is just common sense. It's not that hard to grab a bottle or a shoe and just smack it. I think bringing the dog in was a bit overboard. I'm sorry the dog died, though. Learning experience?

oh my god, most of you people are complete asses. LOTS of people get their dogs to go after bugs, and lots of dogs go after bugs themselves. spiders don't always go down the drain, either. not everyone knows what a black widow looks like, and if OP didn't get a good look or just panicked, then of course s/he wouldn't have been able to tell what kind it was. i doubt s/he stands around with a spider book. there's no excuse for wishing death upon OP, that's just wrong.
