TamberElla and I were talking about this today when she posted pics of some of her T collection, someone posted the inevitable “kill it with fire” comment that so many invert keepers get. So I felt the need to make this and hopefully get this idea through the thick skulls of people who say this shit.

It doesn’t matter if you’re phobic, you have a personal vendetta against all creepy crawlies or you’re just trying to be an asshole. It’s not funny, it’s not okay. You’d never say this to someone who had a conventional pet like a dog, cat, bird or small mammal, so what makes it okay to say that to us?

It’s fucking awful to hear that towards something you hold very dear. Simple and plain hatred towards a living creature you haven’t bothered to educate yourself on just makes you seem ignorant. So stop saying this, you’re unoriginal and unfunny.

*note: I have nothing against arachnophobics who just want to avoid SEEING spiders, but never say this kind of stuff to a tarantula owner, your phobia doesn’t give you an excuse to be a jerk.
