Travel advisory

Prof. Robert Jackson is the principal researcher into spider vision and behaviour down at Canterbury University so we can safely take his word for it:

Obviously there is a need for further study into whether bugs are also protected from jumping spider predation if they are dragging one of those Samsonite suitcases with the built-in wheels and the telescopic handle, that always get stuck in the tram tracks.

A bug with all its possessions in a shopping trolley is automatically safe because it will become invisible.

I'm just not going to go there.

They made us read about spider eyes
My skin is crawling - c'mon you guys
So they switched the topic to hairy penis
Who's gonna read that? What? You mean US?
Misshapen skulls from vikings of myth
Antipodean insects? Just stop it, forthwith!
The worms in the tagline was a dead giveaway
It's only out of evil fascination I stay

I thought you'd LIKE the O RLY eye-spiders, mikey.

But, that said, to be honest it ain't Orly's eyes I'm interested in...
