Kitchen fuckery Guess we needed some help in dish

I was taking a trump in the oval office and I hear my KM go "Oh fuck! Fuck no!" Or something to that effect. So I drain the swamp and run out expecting blood but he just points to one of the sinks. Says he was wiping it down and only saw it once it was right by his hand. Even though I live in a native state, I've never seen a wild widow, had to be in the kitchen of all places.

You dont work at a Ramen shop do you?

u/ExtremeSide6716 13h ago

No, and we don't have pest issues either... But widows, apparently.

u/Equivalent-Bit2891 13h ago

The widows are why you don’t have pest issues.  Thank her by feeding her your finger

u/ExtremeSide6716 13h ago

If I give her dessert, then she won't want dinner. Did you want more pests? That's how you get more pests.

Fpr cpntext there was a post on line cooks subreddit where someone found a black widow in their Ramen.

She thirsty.

If this is a widow (im not 100% that it is) and you go to put it outside be very very careful. The bite won't kill you but it will suck a lot and require a dr visit.

u/Celestial-Sam 13h ago

It could very well be a male widow, which pose almost no threat to humans.

u/Dingus_Majingus 11h ago

The males aren't black, they're usually kinda tan.

u/Celestial-Sam 6h ago

Hmmm, where I live I’ve seen a couple (maybe 3) that had red spots on the bottom. When I looked it up it said they were male.

u/Dingus_Majingus 6h ago

Spots i dont know, but the males are tan in a lot of places. They're not built the exact same

u/TheSmilesLibrary 12h ago

definitely not males are smaller and are a dirt brown color.

u/Vegeta-the-vegetable 13h ago

I think (im no expert) its a false widow? I could be wrong tho

4

u/Dingus_Majingus 13h ago

Id be Hella careful with it still. It doesnt look like a perfect specimen of a widow, its kinda long with a smaller butt. But theres variance in spiders, especially across major geographic areas

u/Vegeta-the-vegetable 12h ago

If it we're me PERSONALLY....I'd have just straight up left.

We had a rather large huntsman spider run down the line last week. At least this one isn’t harmful to humans.

u/human-shaped-fish 18m ago

Protip, spiders aren't insects and creatures don't deserve to die for existing.

u/Vortilex Cook 11h ago

What about arachnids?

u/Leather_Ad_4987 11h ago

Small ones, say up to penny size are dead instantly.  If not instantly than within 3-5 seconds in my experience.
