October 5, 201015 yr I'm going to Australia the summer of 2012 with my school. It's been a goal of mine to go there, and it's coming true. I've watched a lot of shows about spiders that can like hide in shoes and bite you, and other dangerous animals. I have arachnophobia, so I'm slightly worried. The question : How big of a threat are some of those animals? They can't be too bad, otherwise it wouldn't be so populous, but I need some information to calm my nerves. We're going to spend two weeks in Sydney and a week in Melbourne if location is of any relevance. http://i612.photobucket.com/albums/tt206/samtheninja/Tags/FEARLESStag.jpg http://i787.photobucket.com/albums/yy156/song4thedeaf/stuff.png what i'm doing now: https://linktr.ee/student1
October 5, 201015 yr Lol wut Australia isn't entirely a rural wilderness. Melbourne and Sydney are some of the biggest cities and lions and man-eating spiders certainly don't live there. "The cry of the poor is not always just, but if you never hear it you'll never know what justice is."
October 5, 201015 yr If you're just going Sydney/Melbourne, you should be fine. Now what you've really got to watch out for are the drop bears. #KERR2016/17/18/19/20/21. #rpgformod
October 5, 201015 yr You're going to die horribly, another victim of Australia's nightmare fauna. Get back here so I can rub your butt.

October 5, 201015 yr Watch for cane toadsAnd Drop Bears :ohnoes: I hear they eat children. You'll be fine. I never had a spider crawl into my shoe. Actually I never even saw a spider over there. Ponies!
October 5, 201015 yr Watch for cane toadsNow what you do with these, find a golf club and see who can get the longest drive. Trust me, everyone in NT do this. (plus there's none in NSW/VIC) and defo' watch out for Drop Bears. Popoto.~<3
October 5, 201015 yr Australia? That's tame as. You must be thinking of New Zealand.Yeah, you better be careful in NZ or you might get eaten by a sheep :shades: Monkeyfbi135 / Big Dumb Ape | Proud Leader of The Rising[The Rising forums][The Rising memberlist]
October 6, 201015 yr I've spent the whole febuary of this year in Australia and I loved it :thumbsup: CSF leader
October 6, 201015 yr Avoid any Kangaroos. They look timid, but they're packing M-16s in those pouches.
October 6, 201015 yr I ingested a small (dime-sized) piece of aluminum foil. Should I be worried?(if you get the reference, you're my hero.) OT - I hear the spiders are everywhere, much like the tarantulas in Raiders of the Lost Ark. You'll have about 20 of them on your back before you know it. 99 dungeoneering achieved, thanks to everyone that celebrated with me! ♪♪ Don't interrupt me as I struggle to complete this thoughtHave some respect for someone more forgetful than yourself ♪♪♪♪ And I'm not doneAnd I won't be till my head falls off ♪♪

You'll probably poop it out at one point. I was going to eat hot dogs for dinner tonight. I think I will settle for cereal. OPEN WIDE HERE COMES THE HELICOPTER.
October 6, 201015 yr It's the bunyips youve got to watch out for :^_^: [spoiler=click you know you wanna]Me behave? Seriously? As a child I saw Tarzan almost naked, Cinderella arrived home from a party after midnight, Pinocchio told lies, Aladin was a thief, Batman drove over 200 miles an hour, Snow White lived in a house with seven men, Popeye smoked a pipe and had tattoos, Pac man ran around to digital music while eating pills that enhanced his performance, and Shaggy and Scooby were mystery solving hippies who always had the munchies. The fault is not mine! if you had this childhood and loved it put this in your signature!
October 6, 201015 yr Gl to you sir, i hate spiders :ph34r: thank god there aren't many spiders where i live, maybe because it's really cold...
October 6, 201015 yr I saw like ten spiders yesterday, the fact I was lying in amongst long grass in the middle of the paddock helped, but you know. In all seriousness, you'll be fine in the places you're going. #KERR2016/17/18/19/20/21. #rpgformod

You'll have about 20 of them on your back before you know it.I'm guessing to the great glass eating incident of- er a few years ago? I never really ever read that thread. (I know i'm less of a TIF'er for it). Ponies!
October 6, 201015 yr I think they have giant worms there. If you're just going to Melbourne/Sydney, you should be fine, thanks to the Australian government's anti-graboid programmes. They used to attack their underground colonies with nuclear bombs. The only danger you have is stepping on a land mine that they forgot to deactivate or going into the Australian outback. Apart from that, just don't piss off any dingoes or wallabies and you should be fine. Also, avoid these: SWAG Mayn U wanna be like me but U can't be me cuz U ain't got ma swagga on.
October 6, 201015 yr As I assume you'll be going to Sydney/Melbourne/Brisbane you should be fine. Although with a title of Mr. Parkour I can tell you you have more to worry about falling off a building here than having our wildlife harm you. To be safe, know that for emergency services in Australia to call 000, if you're using a mobile phone call 112 if you can. Steam | PM me for BBM PIN Nine naked men is a technological achievement.

October 6, 201015 yr So thats what fear looks like. "Any people anywhere, being inclined and having the power, have the right to rise up, and shake off the existing government, and form a new one that suits them better. This is a most valuable - a most sacred right - a right, which we hope and believe, is to liberate the world."Abraham Lincoln
October 6, 201015 yr So thats what fear looks like. What's the name of that son'[bleep]? #KERR2016/17/18/19/20/21. #rpgformod
October 6, 201015 yr So thats what fear looks like. What's the name of that son'[bleep]? Camel Spider I believe, not sure of it's breed, they are common in iraq, but mostly in a tannish/brown - not sure where the hell that one comes from, but i'd cry if i saw it "Any people anywhere, being inclined and having the power, have the right to rise up, and shake off the existing government, and form a new one that suits them better.
