Badass. I wanna go see that.
Kinda cute
In the first image it looks like damn snow. Anyways what the hell kind of place is called "Wagga Wagga"?
I don't have phobia towards spiders but hell, that gives me the creeps.
mother of god
That's awesome, imagine if a strong wind balled it all up and it flew towards us. It would mean the end of days
That would be cool for all of 15 minutes.
rad
imagine if there was a big wind all the sudden and all the spiders fell on you
Roll around in it. Just roll. Be one with the spiders.
I think is sort of cute, the little guys are just trying to survive.
Wouldn't go near those bunch of little dudes. I'm up north anyway. :p
I'm afraid of spiders and I find this awesome.
It's beautiful.

[QUOTE=Ordigenius;35028806]Wagga Wagga that sounds funny[/QUOTE] Welcome to Australia.
I thought this was going to be about a sports team called the Spiders winning against a team from Wagga Wagga. Anyway, this is actually really cool. It reminds me of snow in a couple of the pictures, except with more legs in it.
Well time to to break out the Napalm
That looks so alien.
They don't seem so tough. I'd fuck those niggas up easy, they're bustas.
[QUOTE=Ordigenius;35028806]Wagga Wagga that sounds funny[/QUOTE] If it were america it would be swagga swagga.
