Browncoat December 26, 2021 Share December 26, 2021 I finally saw the LiMu ad with the spiders. Ewwwww, and ugh. Apart from just the spider on Doug’s arm (ew), that’s not really how spider bites work. Reactions to spider bites are generally pretty localized, although if not treated, tissue necrosis from a really venomous spider can spread. The last spider bite I got just itched at the bite site for a day or two. One of my friends was bitten by a brown recluse, and the reaction he had never spread more than about an inch or two from the bite. Also, most spiders really have to be provoked and fear for their lives to bite — like they’re being sat on, or are hiding inside your bathrobe when you tighten the sash. I say all this as an extreme arachnophobe, which is the main reason I hate that commercial. 14 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/45040-commercials-that-annoy-irritate-or-outright-enrage/page/601/#findComment-7194906

The purpose isn’t entirely clear, though I assure to garner support for a general support of internet/social media regulation. It’s not the worst ever, but… Probably showing my age here, but he’s introduced as a two-year employee which doesn’t establish a lot of credibility to speak for the organization in my eyes. More pickily, there’s a weird close up shot of his hands gesturing that doesn’t match his vocal emphasis. The interviewer also has this strange hybrid look of a deer in headlights that smelled a fart.

YIKES. These spiders can live for up to 25 years and can be domesticated into affectionate pets. Owners say they are generally docile and do well when taken to school and group demonstrations. Generally, tarantulas respond to daily handling. They crawl freely when placed on an arm or shoulder, but they definitely are not a pet that an owner can cuddle. Tarantulas are very timid and bite only when provoked. This could be a problem if a tarantula bites a very small child, a sick adult or a person who is highly sensitive to the venom. 3 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/45040-commercials-that-annoy-irritate-or-outright-enrage/page/601/#findComment-7197421

Popular Post peacheslatour December 28, 2021 Popular Post Share December 28, 2021 I am really disliking these ads for disabled veterans, sick children or suffering animals that reward you for contributing by giving you a blanket. Keep the blanket money and give it to the veterans, kids or shelters. I have enough blankets. 25 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/45040-commercials-that-annoy-irritate-or-outright-enrage/page/601/#findComment-7198985
